Abstract
The study analyses the qualitative influence of different parameters on Dambovita River water temperature along the 17.5km length reach of concrete canal passing through Bucharest City, Romania. Air temperature has been increasing during the investigated last 4 decades with detrimental consequences on the river ecosystem. The simplified physical processes taken into account, equations and numerical methods used to develop a deterministic water temperature model are explained. Different scenarios of possible extreme summer heatwaves with influence on river water temperature are defined analysing the available data. A sensitivity analysis is performed for meteorological parameters such as: air temperature, humidity, short wave solar radiation, cloudiness and wind speed to determine their influence on river temperature.
