The Sverdlovsk region may face a water shortage in the coming years.
In the next 10 years, the Sverdlovsk region may face a water shortage. This is all due to climate change and the low amount of precipitation.
— There is a trend towards an increase in summer rainfall of the downpour type. It’s not the continuous drizzling rain day after day, but rather a short-lived downpour. When there is continuous precipitation, water gradually seeps into the soil. When a lot falls at once, the water flows into bodies of water, into rivers, washing away the soil along the way, but it does not penetrate deeply, — said meteorologist Alexey Pulkin to the EAN publication.
According to him, because of this, the soil is not saturated with moisture. The trend towards drying out in the Urals has been observed for about 10 years. Earlier, climatologist Konstantin Gribanov had already mentioned that the Middle Urals is losing water too quickly.
