In the southwestern part of Lake Baikal, a long-term experiment has been conducted on continuous high-precision measurements of the vertical electric field component Ez and signals of macroscopic nonlocal correlation detectors with surface-to-bottom spacing. The sources of the field are located both in- and outside the hydrosphere, making it possible to monitor source processes in the conjugated geospheres. For periods up to 10 days, the field induced by flows dominates. This has made it possible to obtain information about variations in the total transport of synoptic flow. For longer periods, the current field of the global electrical circuit dominates. These variations turned out to be related to variations in the solar X-ray radiation. Signals from detectors of macroscopic nonlocal correlations reveal an advanced response to some regional and global dissipative processes with a large random component. This provides a unique opportunity to forecast such processes, in particular, hydrothermodynamic activity in the active layer of Lake Baikal.
