Long-Term Climate Trends (1981–2020) and Satellite Altimetry of the Alakol–Sasykkol Lake System (2002–2026): Implications for Sustainable Water Management
Endorheic lakes are sensitive indicators of climate variability and water-management pressure, yet their response in data-scarce Central Asian basins remains poorly quantified. This study examines long-term climate trends (1981–2020) and satellite-altimetry-based water-level dynamics (2002–2026) of the Alakol–Sasykkol...
