This region is faced with adverse conditions, as much of the land is too dry or rugged for farming. Additionally, the rich specific and intraspecific diversity of fruit trees and medicinal plants is threatened by overgrazing, oil and mineral extraction, and poaching. Countless species from the approximately 20 ecosystems and 6000 plant taxa are now rare and endangered. Traditional vegetation studies in this region are far from adequate to handle complex issues such as soil mass movement, soil sodicity and salinity, biodiversity conservation, and grazing management. However, data analysis using a Geographical Information System (GIS) tool provides new insights into the vegetation of this region and opens up new opportunities for long-term sustainable management. While vegetation planning can occur at a property scale, it is often necessary for certain factors, such as salinity, to be dealt with on a regional scale to ensure their effective management. GIS increases the effectiveness and accuracy of vegetation planning in a region. Such regional planning will also greatly increases biodiversity values. This book systematically explores these issues and discuses new applications and approaches for overcoming these issues, including the application of GIS techniques for sustainable management and planning. Professional researchers as well as students and teachers of agriculture and ecology will find this volume to be an integral resource for studying the vegetation of Central Asia. 606 $aPlant ecology 606 $aRemote sensing 606 $aEnvironmental monitoring 606 $aAgriculture 606 $aBotanical chemistry 606 $aPlants$vClassification 606 $aPlants$vClassification 606 $aPlant Ecology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L19112 606 $aRemote Sensing/Photogrammetry$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/J13010 606 $aMonitoring/Environmental Analysis$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/U1400X 606 $aAgriculture$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L11006 606 $aPlant Biochemistry$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L14021 606 $aPlant Systematics/Taxonomy/Biogeography$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L24051 615 0$aPlant ecology. 615 0$aRemote sensing. 615 0$aEnvironmental monitoring. 615 0$aAgriculture. 615 0$aBotanical chemistry. 615 0$aPlants 615 0$aPlants 615 14$aPlant Ecology. 615 24$aRemote Sensing/Photogrammetry. 615 24$aMonitoring/Environmental Analysis. 615 24$aAgriculture. 615 24$aPlant Biochemistry. 615 24$aPlant Systematics/Taxonomy/Biogeography. 676 $a581.5264209516 702 $aEgamberdieva$b Dilfuza$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aÖztürk$b Münir$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910303439603321 996 $aVegetation of Central Asia and Environs$92508038 997 $aUNINA
