ANALUSIS AND ASSESSMENT OF REGULARITIES SPATIOTEMPORAL DISTRIBUTION OF POTENTIAL EVAPORATION IN ARID REGIONS OF THE SOUTH CAUCASUS (ON THE EXAMPLE OF THE REPUBLIC OF ARMENIA)
The features of the formation of the potential evaporation (evaporativity) were studied and discussed, the regularities of the spatial distribution of the evaporation of the studied territory were determined and, analyzed, the dynamics of their temporal change during the period of instrumental observations was esti- mated, their vulnerability and risk to climate change were assessed, developed effective ways to mitigate the consequences of changes and adaptation.
