Abstract

An eddy-resolving model of the thermohydrodynamics of the Caspian Sea is presented. The model reproduces the climatic (decadal) variability of the sea level. Numerical experiments were performed to reconstruct the sea circulation and the evolution of its level in the second half of the 20th century. We also investigate how variations in some natural and anthropogenic factors influencing the Caspian Sea water balance impact the long-term trends of its level.
