Abstract
Results of field studies of water chemistry in the Upper Volga and some its tributaries in the reach between the Volga source and Tver City, as well as in lakes Sterzh, Vselug, Peno, and Volgo, which are constituent parts of the Verkhnevolzhskoe Reservoir, as well as Selizharovskii Pool of Lake Seliger. The year-to-year and season-to-season dynamics of the hydrochemical regime of the examined water bodies and their variations downstream the Volga under the effect of natural and anthropogenic factors are analyzed.
