Abstract
.Climate change is a significant threat to the global ecosystem, affecting both human life and the natural environment. While previously considered a natural seasonal change, human activities have accelerated the rate and severity of climate change. Floods are the most common natural hazard worldwide, accounting for almost half of all weather-related disasters. Land use maps in the years 1994, 2004, 2022 saw the decrease of garden lands and the increase of construction and the destruction of a large amount of vegetation in the region. The average amount of rainfall is the highest with 968 mm for the year1994, 835 mm for the year 2004 and 771 mm for the year2022. Based on the results, the amount of water retention in the basin for the years1994, 2004, 2022 is equal to 0.48%, 0.37% and 0.31%. The amount of water absorbed in the basin is equal to 1332, 12/01 and 10/56 in terms of million cubic meters in the mentioned years. The volume of flood realized for the years 1994, 2004, 2022 is equal to 21/56, 31.96, 42/94 million cubic meters, respectively. The amount of damages caused by flood for the years 1994, 2004, 2022 is equal to 7237 thousand dollars, 317908 thousand dollars and 884706 thousand dollars, respectively.
