A study was conducted to identify the causes of land degradation in Merek catchment, Iran and to propose appropriate measures to … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 9 · 24 Aug 2013 · 8,370 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titlePrevention of Desertification and Land Degradation using Black Saxaul in Arid ConditionsBirzhan Yessimbek, Bulkajyr Mambetov, Ruslan Akhmetov et al.The harsh climate of the arid zone determines several biological features in black saxaul plantations. Therefore, the study of the growth and condition of artificial plantations, depending on the use of physiologically active moisture-absorbing substances and growth biostimulants, is of particular practical importance. In the Moinkum sands of the Zhambyl region (Kazakhstan), observations of the growth and development of the … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 22, Issue 4 · 22 Nov 2022 · 5,520 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsInvestigation of Vegetation Dynamics using Long-Term Normalized Difference Vegetation Index Time-SeriesTamara Bellone, Piero Boccardo, Francesca PerezProblem statement: The Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) is the most extensively used satellite-derived index of vegetation health and density. Since climate is one of the most important factors affecting vegetation condition, satellite-derived vegetation indexes have been often used to evaluate climatic and environmental changes at regional and global scale. The proposed study attempted to investigate the temporal vegetation dynamics … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 31 Aug 2009 · 7,406 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsMonitoring of the Saiga Population: Balancing Nature and AgricultureZhanbolat Ibraibekov, Saule Atshabarova, Ermek Gabdullin et al.The rapid recovery of the Saiga population (Saiga tatarica) in Kazakhstan represents a significant conservation success; however, it has simultaneously generated complex ecological and socio-economic challenges in steppe ecosystems. This study evaluates the relationships between Saiga population density and pasture ecosystem condition and identifies ecological thresholds relevant to balancing biodiversity conservation and sustainable agricultural land use. The research is based … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 26, Issue 4 · 27 Oct 2026 · 50 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAnalysis of Areas Susceptible to Gullies in Ideato South Local Government Area of Nigeria Using Geographic Information System and Remote Sensing TechnologySylvanus IroGully erosion is a critical environmental hazard in Southeastern Nigeria, threatening agricultural productivity, infrastructure, and communal safety. This study provides a spatially explicit assessment of gully erosion susceptibility in Ideato South Local Government Area (LGA), Imo State, using an integrated Geographic Information System (GIS) and Remote Sensing framework. The methodology employed a multi-criteria decision-making approach, utilizing the Analytical Hierarchy Process … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 22, Issue 1 · 20 Jul 2026 · 1,198 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMonitoring of Vegetation Degradation in various Landscapes of the Moyinkum Desert, KazakhstanOmirzhan Taukebayev, Bektemir Osmonali, Salavat Duisenbayev et al.This study is devoted to assessing the degree of vegetation degradation in various landscapes of the Moyinkum Desert, taking into account the taxonomic diversity of flora, the structure of phytocenoses, and the agrochemical condition of soils. The aim of the work was to identify areas with signs of disturbance and to analyse the factors determining degradation processes. It was established … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 26, Issue 2 · 17 Jul 2026 · 857 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDynamics of Mobile Phosphorus and Potassium in the Soils of Agricultural Lands of Kostanay RegionAlmabek Nugmanov, Aliya Yskak, Tatiana Paramonova et al.Soil phosphorus deficiency is a growing constraint on crop productivity in the agricultural lands of the Kostanay Region, Republic of Kazakhstan, yet systematic data on the spatial dynamics of mobile phosphorus and potassium across soil types remain limited. This study assessed the availability of mobile forms of phosphorus and potassium, alongside key physicochemical properties, including soil pH and cation exchange … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 26, Issue 1 · 14 Apr 2026 · 1,603 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMethods for Growing Complete Feed for Livestock on the Forage Lands of West Kazakhstan in the Framework of Sustainable ManagementBeybit Nasiyev, Peizhi Yang, Azhar Latenova et al.Sustainable management of forage lands is critical for livestock productivity in the arid and semi-arid regions of West Kazakhstan, where pasture degradation and declining forage quality pose increasing challenges to agricultural sustainability. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of different grazing methods on the vegetation condition, productivity, and nutritional quality of pastures in West Kazakhstan. Pasture vegetation was assessed … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 26, Issue 1 · 3 Apr 2026 · 1,461 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDeep Learning and Image Analytics for Forest Land Management: Classification, and Object DetectionDevam Dixit, Aditya Bhavsar, Shreyas Jani, Nilesh YadavRapid urbanization and industrialization have contributed to deforestation which has led to a severe degradation of the environment and biodiversity loss. Traditional field survey methods are not applicable in the monitoring of large forest areas due to the fact that such methods are manual, costly and time consuming as well as subject to human error. The current methods of remote … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 22, Issue 3 · 26 Mar 2026 · 1,602 accessesView PDFCite
