Schäpe, Helena Röttgers, Nikita Tychkov 1. Territorial and geographical location Ili Delta, Kazakhstan Almatinskaya Oblast (province), Bakanas Rayon (county) The Ili Delta is part of the Ramsar Site Ile River Delta and South Lake Balkhash Ramsar Site 2. Natural and geographic data Basic geographical data: location between 45° N and 46° N as well as 74° E and 75.5° E. Fig. 1: Map of the Ili-Balkhash Basin (Imentai et al., 2015). Natural areas: The Ramsar Site Ile River Delta and South Lake Balkhash Ramsar Site comprises wetlands and meadow vegetation (the modern delta), ancient river terraces that now harbour Saxaul and Tamarx shrub vegetation, and the southern coast line of the western part of Lake Balkhash. Most ecosystem services can be attributed to the wetlands and meadow vegetation. Therefore, this study focusses on the modern delta with its wetlands and meadows. During this study, a land cover map was created through classification of Rapid Eye Satellite images from the year 2014. The land cover classes relevant for this study were: water bodies in the delta, dense reed (total vegetation more than 70%), and open reed and shrub vegetation (vegetation cover of reed 20- 70% and vegetation cover of shrubs and trees more than 70%). The land cover class dense reed was further split into submerged dense reed and non-submerged dense reed by applying a threshold to the short wave infrared channel of a Landsat satellite image from 4 April 2015.

One direction of activities is promoting the safe operation of more than 100 large dams, most of which are situated on transboundary rivers. Many of these dams were built 40 to 50 years ago, and due to limited resources for their maintenance and the inadequacy of a legal framework for their safe operation, the risk of accidents is increasing.

  • Evaluating Vulnerability of Central Asian Water Resources Under Uncertain Climate and Development Conditions: the Case of the Ili-Balkhash Basin
    water Article Evaluating Vulnerability of Central Asian Water Resources under Uncertain Climate and Development Conditions: The Case of the Ili-Balkhash Basin Tesse de Boer 1,*, Homero Paltan 1,2, Troy Sternberg 1 and Kevin Wheeler 3 1 School of Geography and the Environment, University of Oxford, Oxford OX1 3QY, UK; [email protected] (H.P.); [email protected] (T.S.) 2 Institute of Geography, Universidad San Francisco de Quito, Quito 170901, Ecuador 3 Environmental Change Institute, University of Oxford, Oxford OX1 3QY, UK; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] Abstract: The Ili-Balkhash basin (IBB) is considered a key region for agricultural development and international transport as part of China’s Belt and Road Initiative (BRI). The IBB is exemplary for the combined challenge of climate change and shifts in water supply and demand in transboundary Central Asian closed basins. To quantify future vulnerability of the IBB to these changes, we employ a scenario-neutral bottom-up approach with a coupled hydrological-water resource modelling set-up on the RiverWare modelling platform. This study focuses on reliability of environmental flows under historical hydro-climatic variability, future hydro-climatic change and upstream water demand development. The results suggest that the IBB is historically vulnerable to environmental shortages, and any increase in water consumption will increase frequency and intensity of shortages. Increases in precipitation and temperature improve reliability of flows downstream, along with water demand Citation: de Boer, T.; Paltan, H.; reductions upstream and downstream. Of the demand scenarios assessed, extensive water saving is Sternberg, T.; Wheeler, K.

  • Study on Intra-Regional Cooperation on Water and Power for Efficient Resources Management in Central Asia
    No. Central Asia Region Study on Intra-Regional Cooperation on Water and Power for Efficient Resources Management in Central Asia Main Report February 2009 JAPAN INTERNATIONAL COOPERATION AGENCY supported by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Japan JAPAN WATER FORUM JAPAN WATER AGENCY TOKYO ELECTRIC POWER SERVICES CO., LTD. EC JR 09-001 Preface In order to promote intra-regional cooperation in Central Asian countries, the “Central Asia plus Japan” dialogue initiative was launched by the Japanese government in 2004. The action plan in each field was drawn up at the foreign ministers’ meeting in 2006. In 2007, at the 2nd “Central Asia plus Japan” intellectual dialogue in Tokyo, a specific theme called “Prospects for Regional Cooperation in Central Asia on Water Resources and Electric Power” was discussed. The Japan Bank for International Cooperation (new JICA, Japan International Cooperation Agency, from October 2008) and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Japan conducted a basic study to set up a new direction for their support, and to concretize the roles of Japan by entrusting Japan Water Forum, Japan Water Agency and Tokyo Electric Power Services Co., Ltd. whit a further study. The study team visited the four countries of Central Asia (Uzbekistan, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan) twice. The comprehension of the current situation and issues regarding water resources and the electric field was enabled by interviewing governmental organizations, international organizations, donors etc. (the first research). Furthermore, a presentation of the interim report to the organizations and a hearing of the opinions (the second research) were undertaken. The present report was compiled and finalized, as a result of the researches.
