Rangelands of Central Asia: Forest Service
United States Department of Agriculture Rangelands of Central Asia: Forest Service Rocky Mountain Research Station Proceedings of the Conference Proceedings RMRS-P-39 on Transformations, Issues, and June 2006 Future Challenges Bedunah, Donald J., McArthur, E. Durant, and Fernandez-Gimenez, Maria, comps. 2006. Rangelands of Cen- tral Asia: Proceedings of the Conference on Transformations, Issues, and Future Challenges. 2004 January 27; Salt Lake City, UT. Proceeding RMRS-P-39. Fort Collins, CO: U.S. Department of Agriculture, Forest Service, Rocky Mountain Research Station. 127 p. Abstract ________________________________________ The 11 papers in this document address issues and needs in the development and stewardship of Central Asia rangelands, and identify directions for future work. With its vast rangelands and numerous pastoral populations, Central Asia is a region of increasing importance to rangeland scientists, managers, and pastoral development specialists. Five of the papers address rangeland issues in Mongolia, three papers specifically address studies in China, two papers address Kazakhstan, and one paper addresses the use of satellite images for natural resource planning across Central Asia. These papers comprise the proceedings from a general technical conference at the 2004 Annual Meeting of the Society for Range Management, held at Salt Lake City, Utah, January 24-30, 2004. As the 2004 SRM Conference theme was “Rangelands in Transition,” these papers focus on an area of the world that has experienced dramatic socio-economic changes in 20th Century associated with adoption of communism and command economies and the subsequent collapse of the command economies and the recent transition to a free market economies. The changes in land use and land tenure policies that accompanied these shifts in socio economic regimes have had dramatic impacts on the region’s rangelands and the people who use them.

It is characterized by heavy snowfall and severe winter conditions, causing mass livestock deaths that occur through the following spring. These events substantially limit socioeconomic development in Mongolia. In this research, we conducted an analysis of several dzud events (2000, 2001, 2002, and 2010) to understand the spatial and temporal variability of vegetation conditions in the Gobi region of Mongolia. The present paper also establishes how these extreme climatic events affect vegetation cover and local grazing conditions using the seasonal aridity index (aAIZ), time-series Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI), and livestock data.

Mongolia 2014 International Religious Freedom Report
MONGOLIA 2014 INTERNATIONAL RELIGIOUS FREEDOM REPORT Executive Summary The constitution recognizes “freedom of conscience and religion” as a fundamental freedom of citizens and prohibits state institutions from engaging in religious activities and religious institutions from pursuing political activities. The religion law requires religious institutions to register with authorities and broadly describes registration procedures, leaving most specifics of implementation to the discretion of local authorities. Registration practices varied across the country. Some religious groups complained of difficulties obtaining and renewing registration, with the absence of clear rules leaving the process subject to the personal biases of individual officials. Christian leaders reported the public viewed Christians in an increasingly positive light, although they also reported instances of discrimination and harassment stemming from a view that Christianity was “foreign.” U.S. embassy officials discussed religious freedom with government officials at all levels, including during meetings with high-level officials in the president’s office, parliamentarians, and other authorities in the capital city. Embassy officials met regularly with religious leaders across the country to discuss religious freedom. Section I. Religious Demography The U.S. government estimates the total population at 3 million (July 2014 estimate). Buddhism remains closely linked with the country’s cultural traditions, with 53 percent of citizens self-identifying as Buddhist, according to the 2010 national census. In the census, 38.6 percent of citizens self-identified as atheists. Local scholars, however, assert that more than 90 percent of the population subscribes in some degree to Buddhism. Tibetan Buddhism is the traditional and dominant religion. According to the census, 3 percent of citizens nationwide self-identify as Muslim, and Muslims constitute 80 percent of the population of the primarily ethnic Kazakh western province of Bayan-Olgiy.

People return to the urban area during the winter and remain there during the entire winter. A large number of people live in gers, the tent-like traditional form of dwelling, or in single houses. The gers and houses in ger areas are heated by coal-fired stoves. The apartments are connected to central heating system, also fired with coal.

Wool and Cashmere
PART 1 Wool and cashmere PART 1: Wool and cashmere 15 Introduction Despite the boom in demand for livestock products in general, wool production has fallen by one-third since it peaked in 1990 (FAOSTAT 2009), as production of cotton and other natural and artificial fibres has risen. This creates particular problems for small-scale produc- ers of wool and cashmere: they must find ways to market their product in competition not only with larger-scale, more efficient producers, but also compete with other fibres. This section contains four cases that describe how producers’ associations and develop- ment organizations have attempted to overcome these problems: t Marketing wool from an endangered sheep breed in the Deccan Plateau of India t Cashmere from the Pamirs: Helping mountain farmers in Kyrgyzstan t Spinning a value chain from the Gobi: Camel wool in Mongolia t Marketing of handicrafts made from Linca sheep wool in Patagonia, Argentina. The Indian case describes how an NGO has organized shepherds and processors to pro- duce high-value handicrafts from a seemingly unpromising product – coarse, brown wool. It shows how a combination of community organizing, product design and entrepreneurial marketing can not only reduce poverty, but also halt the decline of a threatened breed. The case from Kyrgyzstan looks at the other end of the spectrum in terms of fibre qual- ity: super-fine cashmere. It looks at efforts to help goat raisers in remote mountain areas produce a higher-value product by introducing a cheap, simple technology (combs, which cost a mere $7 each) and to link producers with cashmere buyers in Europe and Japan.

Geothermal Resources in Mongolia and Potential Uses
GEOTHERMAL TRAINING PROGRAMME Reports 2001 Orkustofnun, Grensásvegur 9, Number 15 IS-108 Reykjavík, Iceland GEOTHERMAL RESOURCES IN MONGOLIA AND POTENTIAL USES Batbayar Tseesuren Renewable Energy Corporation, P.O. Box 479, Ulaanbaatar 210136, MONGOLIA ABSTRACT This paper presents an overview of surveys on geothermal energy that have been made in Mongolia to date and explores possibilities for its use. Mongolia has geothermal resources but geothermal utilization is not widely developed. Hot springs are though used for bathing, health resorts (balneology) and to a small amount for greenhouse heating. The main region of geothermal activity is Khangai, where there are 3 aimag (province) centres and 44 soum (village) centres, with approximately 241,000 people. Most of them are without electricity, using diesel generation in the evenings for 5-6 hours because of high oil costs. Coal and wood are used for heating. Using geothermal energy for heating, electrical generation and industrial purposes are the main incentives for developing a geothermal infrastructure in the rural areas of Mongolia. Bearing in mind that the Mongolian main gross domestic products come from animal husbandry, good possibilities are also to use geothermal energy for wool and cashmere washing and drying. 1. INTRODUCTION Mongolia is situated in the northern part of Central Asia, far from the oceans, on a high plateau surrounded by mountain ridges. The mountainous country’s mean elevation is 1580m above sea level. Mongolia consists of 22 aimags or province (approx. 50,000-110,000 people in each aimag), and each aimag consists of 12-22 soums (each soum or village has approx. 4,000-5,000 people).
