\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0The department<\/strong> was founded in 1945 on the initiative of such prominent scientists as professors N.L. Korzhenevsky, V.M. Chetirkin, V.L. Schulz, O.P. Sheglova. These scientists founded the scientific school “Hydrology of Mountainous Regions” in those years. Since the 50s of the last century, the department has been training geographers-hydrologists for the first time, and later engineers-hydrologists. After the Republic of Uzbekistan gained independence, since 1995 the department has been training bachelors of hydrometeorology, and since 2001 – masters.
\nAt different times, such famous scientists as professors V.L. Shul’s, O.P. Sheglova, V.E. Chub, E.I. Chembarisov, associate professors Z.V. Georgio, R. Mashrapov, P.M. Mashukov, N.K. Lukina, L.I. Shalatova, I.R. Alimukhamedov, A.R. Rasulov, E.M. Videneeva, M.A. Nosirov, G.E. Glazirin, G.N. Trofimov, Z.S. Sirliboyeva worked at the department.
\nBased on the orders of the Center for Hydrometeorological Service of Uzbekistan, the Ministry of Water Resources, the State Committee for Nature Protection and other organizations, the department began training masters in Hydrology in 2020. To date, the department has trained more than 2,000 hydrologist engineers, bachelors in hydrology, hydrometeorology, and about 100 masters in such specialties as Hydrology, Hydrometeorology, Meteorology, Climatology and Agrometeorology, Climate Change and Climate Risk Assessment, Glaciology and Snow Cover Monitoring. More than 40 of them have achieved the degree of Doctor of Science, more than 250 have achieved the degree of Candidate of Science.
\nGraduates of the department serve in the system of the Ministry of Emergency Situations of the Republic of Uzbekistan, the Agency of the Hydrometeorological Service, the system of the Ministry of Water Resources, Uzbekgidroenergo Joint-Stock Company, the system of the Ministry of Ecology, Environmental Protection and Climate Change, the Academy of Sciences of the Republic of Uzbekistan and industry research institutes.
\nThe department “Hydrometeorology and Environmental Monitoring”<\/strong> was established in the 2021-2022 academic year on the basis of the Faculty of Hydrometeorology. During the years of independence, new master’s degrees were opened in the university education system, such as the Hydrometeorology educational direction, Hydrometeorology (by type of activity), Climate change and climate risk assessment, Glaciology and snow cover monitoring. The scientific circle “Young Hydrometeorologist” was established at the department. The research direction of this group is the study of hydrometeorological processes in Uzbekistan and adjacent regions from a scientific and practical point of view. The scientific group operates on the basis of a previously approved work plan. Talented students and young scientists actively participate in this group.
\nIn recent years, students of the department have been actively participating in international and republican science Olympiads and have won a number of prizes. In particular, on April 25-26, 2022, at the III International Student Olympiad in the specialty “Hydrology” at the L.N. Gumilev Eurasian National University in Nur-Sultan, Kazakhstan, Abdurakhmonov Murodjon, a 3rd-year student of the Hydrometeorology department, took an honorable 2nd place.
\n\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0Department<\/strong> of Meteorology and Climatology The Faculty of Physics and Mathematics at Turkestan University began operating in February 1919, and the Department of “Geophysics” was also included in it. The first academic year began in September 2020. On October 20, 1943, the Department of “Synoptic Meteorology” was separated from the Department of “Geophysics”. In 1962, the Department of “Geophysics” and “Synoptic Meteorology” were merged and began operating under the new name of the Department of “Atmospheric Physics”.
\nThe Department of Meteorology and Climatology was established in accordance with the Laws of the Republic of Uzbekistan \u201cOn Education\u201d and \u201cOn the National Program for Personnel Training\u201d, the Concept of the President of the Republic of Uzbekistan \u201cOn the Development of the Higher Education System of the Republic of Uzbekistan until 2030\u201d, the Resolution of the President of the Republic of Uzbekistan \u201cOn measures to radically improve the system of training highly qualified personnel at the National University of Uzbekistan in 2019-2023 and develop scientific potential\u201d, the Regulation of the Ministry of Higher and Secondary Specialized Education \u201cOn Higher Education\u201d and the Order of the Ministry of Higher and Secondary Specialized Education No. 267 dated April 28, 2017. From the 2021-2022 academic year, the Department of “Atmospheric Physics” within the Faculty of Physics has been transformed into the Department of “Meteorology and Climatology” within the Faculty of Hydrometeorology.
\nOver the past period, the department was headed by R.R. Zimmerman (1920-1935), A.A. Skvortsov (1936-1954), V.A. Georgio (1955-1974), V.I. Gubin (1974-1975), N.N. Romanov (1975-1988), Yu.V. Petrov (1988-1999), Kh.T. Egamberdiev (1999-2006), in 2006-2012 as part of the Department of General Physics and Atmospheric Physics, in 2012-2021 as part of the Department of Astronomy and Atmospheric Physics, Kh.T. Egamberdiev (2021-2022).
\nDepartment From November 1, 2024, as a result of the optimization of the departments of \u201cDrought Hydrology\u201d, \u201cHydrometeorology and Environmental Monitoring\u201d and \u201cMeteorology and Climatology\u201d within the Faculty of Hydrometeorology, the Department of Hydrometeorology of the Faculty of Physics was renamed the Department of \u201cDrought Hydrology and Meteorology\u201d.
\nThe sustainable development of all sectors of the national economy of our country, especially agriculture and industry, is directly related to the effective use of existing water resources. From this point of view, the topics of scientific research carried out at the department are: Surface water resources of the Aral Sea basin; mountain glaciers; laws of river flow formation; hydrometeorological regime of lakes; laws of the hydrological regime of reservoirs, climate change<\/p>","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false},"class_list":["post-25480","chair","type-chair","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/nuu.uz\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chair\/25480","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/nuu.uz\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chair"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/nuu.uz\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/chair"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/nuu.uz\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=25480"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
