change impact on water resources is observed in all Nordic and Baltic countries.
These processes became more active in the last decades. Although the territory of Baltic
countries (Lithuania, Latvia, Estonia) is not large (175000 km²), climatic differences are quite
considerable. The amount of precipitation varies from 850 mm per year in the Uplands of
Latvia to 560 mm per year in the Central

flowing upwards from depth and accumulating into the upper crust (at about 4 km

mm per day. A similar trend is not observed at the stations farther away, like
