  • Chronology of the Aral Sea Events from the 16Th to the 21St Century
    Chronology of the Aral Sea Events from the 16th to the 21st Century Years General Events 16th century 1558 An English merchant and diplomat, Anthony Jenkinson, travels through Central Asia and observes the medieval desiccation of the Aral Sea. He writes that ‘‘the water that serveth all to country is drawn by ditches out of the river Oxus [old name for Amudarya] into the great destruction of the said river, for which it falleth not into the Caspian Sea as it gath done in times past, and in short time all land is like to be destroyed, and to become a wilderness foe want of water when the river Oxus shall fail.’’ A. Jenkinson crosses the Ustyurt and visits Khiva and Bukhara, preparing a map of Central Asia. 1573 ‘‘Turn’’ of the Amudarya from the Sarykamysh to the Aral; in other words, the rather regular flow of part of its waters into the Sarykamysh ceases, the waters from this time running only to the Aral. 17th century 1627 In the book, ‘‘Knigi, glagolemoy Bolshoy Chertezh’’ (‘‘the big sketch’’), the Aral Sea is named ‘‘The dark blue sea.’’ 1670 German geographer Johann Goman publishes the map ‘‘Imperium pereicum,’’ on which the Aral is represented as a small lake located 10 German miles from the northeastern margin of the Caspian Sea. 1697 On Remezov’s map of the Aral Sea (more Aral’sko), it is for the first time represented as an internal lake completely separated from the Caspian Sea and into which the Amundarya (Amu Darya, Oxus), the Syrt (Syr Darya, Yaksart), and many small rivers flow.

This article discusses issues related to the environmental problems in various sectors of the Central Kazakhstan’s economy at the present stage. It is emphasized that the level of environmental pollution is increasing along with industrial progress in coal, non-ferrous and ferrous metallurgy, chemistry, engineering, and the growth of the transport highways network and numerous communications. The authors of the article give examples of how the transition to market mechanisms of economic development generated, on the one hand, the growth of the republic’s powerful economic potential. On the other hand, the increase in industrial production with energy and resource-intensive production has led to a real threat of an environmental crisis in the region. It is concluded that the solution of the environmental problem is possible by preserving and restoring natural systems, a complete social transition to sustainable development by practical implementation of the environmental concept, including natural-resource, techno-economic, demographic and sociocultural aspects. According to the authors, these measures will contribute to the way out of the current environmental crisis, a radical improvement of the environment, will be the key to preserving the ecology of space.
