  2. INTRODUCTION • Location

  3. ORGANIZATION Government of the Republic of Macedonia Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Watermanagement HYDROMETEOROLOGICAL SERVICE

  4. HYDROMETEOROLOGICAL SERVICE ORGANIZATION CHART

  5. HYDROLOGICAL SERVICE ORGANIZATION CHART SECTOR FOR HYDROLOGY AND ENVIRONMENTAL MONITORING Department for Hydrological Investigation of Surface Water, Groundwater and Springs Department for Hydrological Information, Water Balance, Studies and Water Forecast Department for Monitoring of Air, Water and Soil Quality and Chemical Laboratory

  6. ROLE • To monitor surface water and groundwater.

  7. MAIN TASKS • to organize hydrological networks; • to collect, process, analyze, and to present hydrological data. • to issue daily rivers and lakes waterlevels and discharges information; • to publish weekly, monthly and yearly hydrological data; • to inform and alarm in case of appearance on droughts and floods.

  8. USERES • Crisis Management Centre, Water Related Ministers, Public and Media and Private Sectors.

  9. HYDROLOGICAL MONITORING • -Groundwater Network Stations: • operational 33% -Surface Water Network Stations: operational 60% 60% 33%

  10. BIGGEST SUCCESS IN LAST 5 YEARS Achievements: -real time hydrological data; -basis of modern monitoring; -operation and maintenance; -trained staff. • Happiness: • new hydrological yearbook • and accurate • real time hydrograph • on our web site • (www.meteo.gov.mk) II Part of the Project RIMSYS - Modernization of 18 Hydrological Stations

  11. www.meteo.gov.mk INTERNET MODULE for online presentation of hydrological data

  12. BIGGEST FAILURE IN LAST 5 YEARS • What we did not achieve: • -new 3WL&10P modern stations; • new measuring equipment; • water forecast system; Unhappiness: -inability to employ new hydrologists and to modernize measurement! We did not complete III part of the Project RIMSYS - Station Modernization and Water Forecast System

  13. HYDROMETRY • Current meter • Wading • Discharge Measurements Discharge Measurement with the Boat

  14. Hydrologists in HMSNo new employments! • Decreasing number of hydrologists in HMS: • 1997 – 25 • 2012 – 14 • 2014 – 12 • 2016 - 10

  15. HUMAN RESOURCES 4

  16. EXPECTATIONS • At the national level: • New employments for hydrologists; • New equipments for hydrometry and monitoring. • At international level: • Establish on international legal frame for hydrological monitoring and hydrometry obligated for every state in the Europe and wider; • Organizing regional training(workshops) for hydrological staff; • Support for modernization of equipments for hydrometry and monitoring; • Organizing GLOBAL HYDROLOGICAL NETWORK.

  17. SUGGESTION • How to get Global Hydrological Network??? • GOOGLE EARTH & Hydrologists (WMO) Partnership! • FREE ACCES TO ONLINE MONITORING DATA

  18. CONCLUSION AND RECOMENDATION • Work on strengthening the capacities of the National Hydrological Services; • Improving and standardizing hydrometry and monitoring; • Improwing Hydrological Information • GOOGLE Earth HYDRO-Net.
