Monitoring of the Pastures in the West-Kazakhstan Region (Example from the Karatobin Region)

Abstract

Topic of this research are pastures in the Karatobin region that are parts of the Kaspijan valley desert and semi-deserts. In this paper degradation of the pastures, caused by industry activities is analyzed. Based on the results obtained from the geoinformation research, the degree of pasture degradation in the experimental field of Karatobe (West-Kazkhstan region) is given. Obtained results give the possibility for easy and precise evaluation of the pasture conditions in the region.

Predmet istraživanjarada su pašnjaci Karatobinskog rejona Zapadno- Kazahstanske oblasti koji čine deo pustinja i polupustinja Kaspijske nizije-ravnice. Takođe, u radu su razmotreni i procesi degradacije pašnjaka uzrokovanih intenzivnom privrednom aktivnošću. U radu je na osnovu rezultata geoinformacionih istraživanja iznet stepen degradacije pašnjaka na oglednom poligonu Karatobe, Zapadno- Kazahstanske oblasti. Dobijeni parametri omogućavaju brzu i tačnu ocenu stanja pašnjaka u regionu.
