Climate change causes increasingly frequent and intense hydrometeorological phenomena such as floods and droughts, negatively affecting both the quality of human life and ecosystem stability. This study explores how changes in landscape elements can influence water retention in river basins and affect the impact of extreme events.
The project’s objective is to assess the water retention potential of river basins using cartographic methods, identify vulnerable areas, and propose sustainable landscape management solutions. The research integrates hydrological data, remote sensing methods, and GIS technologies to model interactions between landscape features and water circulation processes.
The results will contribute to the development of more effective environmental management strategies aimed at reducing the impact of extreme events, enhancing ecosystem resilience, and ensuring long-term water resource stability. Moreover, the project outcomes will be significant for hydrology science and practical environmental management, including water resource management, landscape conservation, and urban planning, especially in the context of climate change and increasing hydrological extremes.
