The first data about algal and cyanobacteria species diversity was represented for the Arys River basin and compared it to freshwater algae patterns of the related mountain regions. Altogether 82 species were found in 28 samples of phytoperiphyton on 13 sampling stations of the Arys River and its tributaries. Diatoms prevail in studied algal flora. Bioindication characterize the Arys River waters as temperate, moderately oxygenated, fresh, neutral water affected by a low to moderate level of organic pollution, Class II-III of water quality. The pattern of algae and cyanobacteria diversity distribution depends on altitude and local climatic and environmental conditions. Bacillariophyta species was richest in high mountain habitats, green algae, cyanobacteria and charophytes avoid high mountain habitats and have negative correlation with altitude. These results can be used as indicator of environmental changes in the mountainous areas. Three floristic groups were recognized in the studied river communities corresponding to the upper, middle and lower parts of the watershed.

For many years he has been planning to assemble an in-depth study of all known card play techniques and their classification.

It has been my privilege to follow its progress and watch the book take shape. A book such as this should not to be put into a beginner’s hands, but it should become a well-thumbed reference source for all players who want to improve their game.

  • The Aral Sea Basin Is Located in the Centre of Eurasian Continent And
    The Aral Sea Basin is located in the centre of Eurasian continent and covers the territory of Tajikistan, Uzbekistan, major part of Turkmenistan, part of Kyrgyzstan, southern part of Kazakhstan and northern part of Afghanistan. Water resources of the Aral Sea basin are formed in surface and underground sources and glaciers. Surface waters are mainly concentrated in the basins of the two main rivers of the region –Amudarya and Syrdarya. Independent hydrographic basins (gravitating towards the Amudarya and Syrdarya rivers) create Kashkadarya, Zaravshan, Murgab, Tedjen, Chu, Talas rivers that lost connection with the main rivers many centuries ago. The territory can be divided to three main zones on the conditions of formation and transformation of the surface flow in the region: • zone, where the flow is formed (area of feeding in mountainous regions); • zone of transit and dispersion of flow; • delta zones. Numerous glaciers are concentrated in the mountain systems of the Central Asia, which give rise to practically all large rivers of the region, the water of which is intensively used in the national economy. The major part of glaciers is located in the territory of the Republic of Tajikistan and the Republic of Kyrgyzstan. On the whole, water resources in the Aral Sea basin are not equally distributed. 55,4% of the flow in the basin are formed within the territory of Tajikistan, in Kyrgyzstan – 25,3%, in Uzbekistan – 7,6%, in Kazakhstan – 3,9%, in Turkmenistan – 2,4%, on the territory of Afghanistan and other countries, share of which is not significant (China, Pakistan) – around 5,4% of the flow is formed.

In this study, long-term (1960–2015) river runoff and climate data in the Arys and Keles River watersheds (Kazakhstan) were gathered to analyze the impacts of climate variation and human activity on runoff. The non-parametric Kendall test and the Pettitt test were used to identify trends and change points in the time data series. It was found that both watersheds had significant upward trends in temperature and potential evapotranspiration data, and insignificant upward trends in the runoff. Change points in annual runoff were identified around the year 1973. The hydrological sensitivity method was employed to evaluate the impacts of climate variation and human activity on mean annual runoff based on precipitation and potential evapotranspiration.
