ABSTRACT. – The peculiarities of the seasonal and monthly flow regime of the rivers in the upper river basin of Mureş. The study is based upon the processing and the interpretation of data from eight gauging stations. In order to emphasize the peculiarities of the flow regime year-round there has been taken into account the common period, namely 1986-2010. The features of the geographic cover characterizing the central eastern part of Eastern Carpathians, especially those regarding the slopes and the climatic elements are reflected accurately in the river water flow regime. Thus, the dominant flow of all rivers occurs during the spring season and the lowest share of the total annual average season is winter. The month with the richest flow is April, and the low flow occurs during the months of January and February. The seasonal and monthly flow variation in multi profile was highlighted by the coefficients of variation.
