About some regularities of geosystems’ degradation in Central Asia
Аннотация
The appearance of new countries on the territory of Central Asia on the map and the Aral disaster in its center had complicated the efficient and complex solution of ecological, social and economical problems of this region. At present the ecological situation on the flat part of Central Asia is remaining tense despite practical measures undertaken and attracted efforts of authoritative international organizations and some countries. The following evident facts can serve as an unquestionable argument in favor of such a conclusion: 1) year after year the tendency of growth of anthropogenic load on natural ecosystems is increasing; 2) preservation of relatively high rate of growth of population and the increase of its need for natural resources; 3) a new political, social and economical situation on the territory of Central Asia that is focused on the establishment of market relations; 4) the existence (even intensification according to some aspects) of interstate, interregional, intereconomic and private owner barriers, especially, on proportional usage of water and other resources; 5) low ecological literacy of the population including certain people in leading link of administrative personnel and oth. In these conditions the problem of preservation and replenishment of environment and resources of desert area of Central Asia is considered urgent and actual task. A positive solution of this problem dictates the need of theoretical bases that represent elaboration of new scientific approaches, ideas which could serve as a methodological support for deeper knowledge of mechanism of development of natural-economical systems and for elaboration of strategy of optimal use of nature to be applied for the whole territory of Central Asia. Because private, locally realized practical measures of recovery of the ecology of desert geosystems is ineffective on the background of functional dynamical integrity of Aral basin. It is known that the territory of Central Asia is
