Abstract

The article analyzes current issues of water use in the Irtysh River transboundary basin and their solutions. We examine consequences following the implementation of inter- and intra-basin projects on transferring a part of riverstreamflow to mitigate water deficit problems in countries grav itating towards the catchment area of the Irtysh.
