VARIATIONS IN MEAN SEA LEVELS OF THE CASPIAN SEA IN XXI CENTURY
This paper aims to investigate the distributions of the average rates of mean annual level changes of the Caspian Sea over its whole area in the modern period. A prognosis of their further changes is given based on the Arctic ice cover variations and the scenario when the solar activity level averaged over the 11-year cycle will decrease till 2060-70 with further rise afterwards.
