The proposals of scientists for improving the monitoring of irrigated lands are aimed at the solution of this problem. Information of this kind is relevant for the development of measures to stabilize and restore soil fertility. The problems of the organization of salinization monitoring for irrigated soils in Russia are considered. The proposed approaches to its optimization are based on the integrated use of remote and terrain data and on our own research experience in Volgograd oblast. A comparative analysis of existing approaches to monitoring of saline soils in our country and abroad is given. The term of saline soils is defined. We show which soil layer should be analyzed for the presence of easily soluble salts to assign the soils, as well as solonetzes and solonetzic soils, to saline. The terrain monitoring performed by hydrogeological and reclamation parties, counting saline and saline-solonetzic soils on irrigated lands by terrain and analytical methods, should be supplemented with annual monitoring (during the spring–summer period) based on remote information for comprehensive survey. This approach will enable us to identify irrigated, rain-fed, and fallow lands in irrigation systems by satellite images; to supplement permanent terrain survey plots with sampling sites chosen by remote information; to identify areas with secondary soil salinization by the vegetation status on irrigated lands with a critical groundwater level and to take samples in them for analysis; and to reveal areas of saline-solonetzic soils on rain-fed lands and in the fields with noncritical groundwater levels by the vegetation status. All this will expand the database and characteristics of saline and saline-solonetzic soils and supplement the information obtained by hydrogeological and reclamation parties at permanent survey sites for better accounting of these soils.</p>","PeriodicalId":44316,"journal":{"name":"Arid Ecosystems","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2024-07-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141782121","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Neronov","doi":"10.1134/S2079096124010104","DOIUrl":"10.1134/S2079096124010104","url":null,"abstract":"&lt;p&gt;Even in the recent past, kulans (&lt;i&gt;Equus hemionus&lt;/i&gt; Pallas, 1775) lived in the Eurasian steppes and deserts, from the eastern shores of the Mediterranean Sea to China. On the territory of Russia, the kulan was last encountered in 1926 in the Torey Lakes region, and in recent years the question has been raised about the possibility of reintroducing these animals into the Daursky Reserve. This review provides information on the current state of the Mongolian and Turkmenian kulan populations living in the countries of Central Asia (Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan, Mongolia and China) bordering Russia. Currently, in countries adjacent to Russia, autochthonous populations of the kulan have been preserved in the southern regions of Mongolia and adjacent parts of northern China, where the Mongolian kulan lives (&lt;i&gt;E.h. hemionus&lt;/i&gt; Pallas, 1775). The largest population lives in Mongolia, where currently, according to experts, approximately 70 000 individuals are found (or 83% of the world population of the species). Almost half of the kulan’s range in Mongolia (42%) is located in nationally protected areas, but the size of existing protected areas, where kulans spend only about 23% of their time, is not large enough for the animals to be fully protected. The expansion of the network of protected areas to 30% of the country’s territory by 2030 suggests that the kulan, like other migratory ungulate species of the arid zone, have good prospects. About 80% (or just over 3000 individuals) of the kulan population in China currently lives in the Kalamaili National Nature Reserve in Xinjiang, making this protected area extremely important for the conservation of the species. In the 1930s, the kulans disappeared from Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan. In Turkmenistan the aboriginal population of the Turkmenian kulan was preserved until the end of the 1990s (&lt;i&gt;E.h. kulan&lt;/i&gt; Groves and Mazák, 1967) in the Badkhyz Nature Reserve, but was most likely lost in recent years. A successful program for the reintroduction of kulans, which begun in the 1950s, and since the 1980s took on a larger scale, made it possible to preserve these animals (mainly in protected natural areas) within their historical range. In 2023, just over 30 kulan individuals lived in Turkmenistan in two areas with a total area of 800 km&lt;sup&gt;2&lt;/sup&gt;: in the Tersakan river valley west of the borders of the Syunt Hasardag State Nature Reserve and on the territory of the Kaplankyr State Nature Reserve in the border zone. According to experts, it is very likely that in the near future the species will completely disappear from the country, since none of the indicated groups can be considered viable. The number of kulans living in the territory of the Saigachiy and Sudochye sanctuaries, as well as the Southern Ustyurt National Park in Uzbekistan, is currently estimated at 170 animals. Kulans are also actively breeding in the Jeyran eco-center.

Mamutov","doi":"10.1134/S2079096123040108","DOIUrl":"10.1134/S2079096123040108","url":null,"abstract":"<p>This paper discusses the dynamics of ecosystems and their components in connection with the development of the Aral Sea environmental crisis. The theoretical basis of this study was the idea that the vegetation dynamics under the conditions of deltaic landscape desertification represents an anthropogenically-induced natural hologenetic process involving the replacement of vegetation typical for hydromorphic floodplain and reed-bed biotopes with vegetation of semihydromorphic meadow and solonchak biotopes resulting in the formation of zonal vegetation typical for automorphic biotopes. These endo–ecogenetic successions are determined by the directed reduction in moisture supply in biotopes and accompanying salinization and evolution of soils. The changes occur in both successional and catastrophic ways. In the northern, undeveloped part of the Amu Darya River delta, the reduction of the sea water surface and a sharp drop in water reserves resulted by the 1990s in the formation of environmental conditions typical for desert landscapes: the climate parameters and their regime became close to desert ones, while the groundwater level fell to a depth of 5–10 m, thus, making groundwaters inaccessible to plant roots. Reconstruction of the reservoir system and flooding of former marine bays contribute to the formation of hydromorphic conditions on local sites. Geobotanical studies commenced in the Amu Darya River delta in 1979 and involved route surveys and surveys of topo–ecological profiles passing through the main deltaic relief elements (levees, their slopes, and interchannel depressions) were repeated in the monitoring mode in 1985, 1993, and 1999. Route surveys performed in 2017 showed that the current vegetation dynamics stage involves the formation of desert plant communities. Black saxaul (<i>Haloxylon aphyllum</i> (Minkw.) Iljin) first discovered in the Muynak district in 1993 is actively spreading in the most part of the undeveloped delta that has turned into a wasteland after the extinction of common reed (<i>Phragmites australis</i> (Cav.) Trin. ex Steud.) communities in the 1970s–1980s. The desert species <i>Krasheninnikovia ceratoides</i> (L.) Gueldenst. that has invaded degrading tugai and sparse arborescent saltwort (<i>Salsola dendroides</i> Pall.) monocoenoses on takyr solonchak soils around the same years formed extensive thickets north of the city of Kungrad.

On the right bank of the Akdar’ya River that feeds the Mezhdurechenskoe Reservoir, on the Porlytau topo–ecological profile located 3 km southwest of the upland of the same name, over the course of the 40-year observation period, the river washed away a section of the near-channel floodplain and levee 500 m wide and was incised 9 m into the ground following a drop in the erosion base level (i.e., water level in the eastern part of the Greater Sea) by 26 m.

It has been established that the main soil-forming processes are cryo- and light-humus, accumulative-carbonate and pale-metamorphic. In the soils of deposits, the processes of stratification and abrasion are expressed. Moving sands are not affected by soil formation, but with partial fixation of herbaceous and/or shrub vegetation on them, embryonic underdeveloped soils (layered-eolian, humus psammozems) begin to develop. For the first time, the results of the material composition of the rocks of the Angara-Vitim batholith, soil-forming sand, as well as the composition of minerals of fractions &lt;1.1–5 and &gt;5 µm of cryohumus and light humus soils are presented. It has been determined that the regional features of soil-forming sands are carbonation, alkalinity, and polymineral content, which is inherited from calc-alkaline rocks. The sandy and silty soil fractions have a similar mineralogical composition, which are characterized by a high content of plagioclases and K-feldspars and a low content of quartz. The composition of the silty fraction consists of a mixed-layer phase of illite-smectites interbedded with single chlorite packets, di-trioctadridic illite, ferruginous chlorite, and kaolinite. Modern soil formation is characterized by a low degree of chemical weathering (CWC, CWI, and GM) and weak profile differentiation. A feature of the material composition of sandy soils is an increased content of potassium and sodium. According to the values of total alkalinity, the studied soils are highly alkaline soils. There is a clearly pronounced division of the soil profile according to biological activity. It was revealed that during arable use, sandy soils are potential centers of desertification: in the studied area, all arable lands and fallows located on them are deflated to varying degrees. At the same time, it was found that more than 70% belong to very strongly deflated and strongly deflated types. In such areas, humus soil layers are blown out and carbonate horizons and even soil-forming sands are exposed. The exposed middle horizons and sands do not possess elements of effective fertility. The yield of agricultural crops on such arable lands is very low, the process of natural restoration of vegetation cover on fallow lands is extremely difficult, and deflation ulcers practically do not overgrow.
