Complex observations on the energy and water balance components were carried out by the State Hydrological Institute in co-operation with Japanese side at the Mogot experimental plot near Tynda city within framework of the GAME-Siberia project in the south mountain taiga zone of East Siberia for the period of August 2000 – March 2001. 30.8 km2) and its subbasins. Main goals of this study are as follows: i. Study seasonal variations of energy fluxes at typical landscapes in the southern mountain taiga region of East Siberia; ii. Study lows of water balance components formation in the southern mountain taiga region of East Siberia at catchments scale; iii. Obtaining and preparation data for the development, validation and verification of hydrological models. According to the observation programme the following water and heat components were observed: (i) heat balance components and solar radiation characteristics; (ii) meteorological characteristics; (iii) river runoff; (iv) precipitation; (v) dynamics of soil moisture content and freeze-up; (vi) snow water equivalent. Actinometric observations at the Mogot experimental plot were made to get data on the radiation regime in the Nelka watershed. Measurements of the radiation regime components were made in August and during 1-10 September, 2000. Heat balance observations in the Mogot experimental plot in August 2000 were made simultaneously with actinometric observations. Variations of net radiation and heat flux into the soil for August 2000 – January 2001 is shown in Fig.1. Fig.1 Variations of net radiation (corrected) and heat flux into the soil for August 2000 – January 2001. Preliminary results of obtained data analysis and prospects of further energy and water circulation processes study at a small catchment scale in accordance with main goals of research are considered.
