Kazakhstan: 1) Western Zone, that unites Atyrau, Western-Kazakhstan and Mangystau oblasts: - these regions possess most of the country’s oil and gas projects; - most power in this region is imported from Russia. 2) Northern Zone, that unites Akmola, Aktobe, Eastern-Kazakhstan, Karaganda, Kostanai, Northern-Kazakhstan and Pavlodar oblasts: - this zone produced almost 80% of Kazakhstan’s total electricity; - this zone exports excess power to the Southern Zone and Russia; - with most of coal reserves concentrated in this zone, it results in the lowers costs for electricity in Kazakhstan. 3) Southern Zone, that unites Almaty, Zhambyl, Kyzylorda and Southern-Kazakhstan oblasts: - this zone accounts for 38% of the country’s population ; - this zone is characterized with electricity shortage and highest electricity prices; - power is imported from Central Asia countries. 5 100% Review of Kazakhstan electricity market Electricity generation and consumption in Kazakhstan 2000 2001 2002 2003

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.

BACKGROUND The total forest area in Kazakhstan is about 12.6 million hectares, which makes it one of the richest in forest countries in Eurasia, despite the low level of forest cover, which is only 4.6%. Approximately 95% of the forests (wooded areas) in Kazakhstan are managed by 123 forestry administrations, which are controlled by regional governments (akimats). There are three main types of forest ecosystems in Kazakhstan: alpine mountain forests, tugai (southern coastal) forests and saxaul landscapes (desert and semi-desert shrubs). Since 2018, the GEF-UNDP project "Conservation and sustainable management of key globally significant ecosystems for obtaining various benefits" (hereinafter referred to as the project) has been implemented on the territory of the republic. The project strategy is to holistically address the conservation and sustainable use of forest ecosystems in Kazakhstan, through management approaches including both protected areas and sustainable use of associated HCVF landscapes (maps of the project areas are presented in Appendices 4, 5, 6 to the Terms of Reference).

GeoJournal of Tourism and Geosites, 34(1), 102–111. https://doi.org/10.30892/gtg.34114-625 Abstract: The Charyn River is located in South-East Kazakhstan, 195 km east of Almaty. The river valley cuts through Paleozoic rocks and loose sandy-clay deposits of the Cenozoic and forms amazingly beautiful canyons, the so-called "Valley of Castles".

  • Seismogenic Destruction of the Kamenka Medieval Fortress, Northern Issyk-Kul Region, Tien Shan (Kyrgyzstan)

Kyrgyz-Turkish University "Manas", Bishkek, Kyrgyzstan Abstract A paleoseismological study of the medieval Kamenka fortress in the northern part of the Issyk-Kul Lake depression, northern Tien Shan in Kyrgyzstan, revealed an oblique slip thrust fault scarp offsetting the fortification walls. This 700m long scarp is not related to the 1911 Kebin Earthquake (Ms 8.2) fault scarps which are widespread in the region, but as analysis of stratigraphy in a paleoseismic trench and archaeological evidence reveal, it can be assigned to a major 12th century AD earthquake which produced up to 4 m of oblique slip thrusting antithetic to that of the nearby dominant faults. The inferred surface rupturing earthquake apparently caused the fortress destruction and was likely the primary reason for its abandonment, not the Mongolian-Tatar invasions as previously thought. Key words: archaeoseismology, fault-scarp, fortress, castle, surface fault, decline, Mongol-Tatar invasion, Issyk-Kul Lake, Tien Shan, Kyrgyzstan Introduction The destruction and decline of central Asian medieval cities in the 12th-14th centuries is usually attributed to Mongolian-Tatar invasions of Chingizkhan and Tamerlane (e.g., Toynbee, 1946; Saeki, 1951; The Mongol Mission, 1955; Needham, 1959).

Summary of General Developments This quarterly report summarizes the activities of the USAID/Pragma Trade and Investment Project (TIP) during the past quarter. At the conclusion of the current quarter, TIP has completed 18 months of the two-year contract base period. The Pragma Corporation was authorized to begin work on TIP as of June 1, 2001. The contract between the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) and the Pragma Corporation was finalized and signed in mid-July, 2001. The TIP was designed so that different components would be phased in gradually over a period of several months. The initial phase began on June 1, 2001. The Customs Component in Kyrgyzstan and Kazakhstan was phased in from the predecessor project beginning on July 1, 2001. The World Trade Organization (WTO) Component began to be phased in August in Kyrgyzstan.

The semi-arid regions of Central Asia crucially els are derived based on these predictors as linear combi- depend on the water resources supplied by the mountain- nations of up to four predictors.

Based on the tains provides the main water resource available for agricul- cross-validation the predictive uncertainty was quantified for tural production, but also for storage in reservoirs for en- every prediction model.
