The reports were grouped according to the following subjects (the figures show number of reports): future national prospects -- 6; basic data: precipitation -- 2, evaporation -- 3, surface waters -- 3, subsurface waters -- 4, methods used to process data -- 3; water balance: principles and analyses -- 6, use -- 5; social-economic problems -- 4; analyses and research -- 4; formation -- 2.
