YEREVAN, MARCH 26, ARMENPRESS: Armenian hydro-meteorological and ecology monitoring agency’s data said that the level of lake Sevan has been 1896,88 meters (over 500 million cubic meters of water) by March 26, which is by 49 cm higher against the same date last year.
The head of the agency Genadi Kojoian said that the ice on the shores of the lake and the snow in the water collecting basin are still preserved. “The raise in the flows of the rivers feeding the lake is anticipated in April-May, when the snow will melt faster due to the activation of the sun,” said he.
According to him, the increase will positively impact the restoration of the lake’s fauna and the re-creational processes. Beside creating an optimally stable situation in the lake it will improve the physical-chemical attributes of water too, he said.
According to the agency’s data, 26.5 million cubic meters of water (equivalent to 2 cm increase in the lake’s level) flowed by Arpa-Sevan tunnel into the lake this year, from January by now, against the 26,23 million cubic meters for the same period last year.
