Abstract Techirghiol Lake is one of the most important hypersaline lakes in South East region of Europe due in particular to its therapeutic properties. The principal threats of this ecosystem are: climate changes and watershed changes due to human activities, which result in pronounced changes of this lake. The analysis of changes (via parametric and nonparametric approaches) is one of the keystones for understanding the long term variability of this ecosystem and the factors influencing it. To analyse the evolution of lake processes the hydro-meteorological variables was investigated, spanning the 1953-2015 period. The preliminary results shows a strongly influence of anthropic impact corroborate with climate changes on hydrological lake variables.
