The purpose of the work was to conduct a comprehensive assessment of the current state of the soil cover in the dried bed of the Aral Sea in order to study the processes that are occurring in the local soils as a result of anthropogenic impacts inducing soil degradation and desertification (e.g., soil salinization and deflation). Additionally, the book analyzes morphological characteristics and chemical-physical properties of soils in the dried bottom of the Northern Aral Sea in order to know how material properties can be transported during soil deflation in dust/sand/salt storms in the region, as well as to identify changes in long-term dynamics of aridization and climatic parameters such as temperature, precipitation and evapotranspiration in the Aral Sea region. The novelty of this researchis reflected in the latest information on the vertical and spatial distributions of soils and their chemical properties in the region containing the dried bed of the Aral Sea in Kazakhstan. Consequently, an updated soil map (soil salinization and salinization degree, land degradation) of the seabed was obtained according to the collected field data and satellite-derived images such as those recorded by Landsat-8. The book is mainly addressed to scientists and researchers who study soil cover in the dried Aral Seabed and its region, as well as soil degradation and desertification in the dried lake playas and aridization in other arid regions. The book will also be useful for students and planners who feel responsible for the sustainable development and sustainable use of natural resources in Central Asian countries. . 606 $aSoil science 606 $aPhysical geography 606 $aGeochemistry 606 $aSoil Science 606 $aPhysical Geography 606 $aGeochemistry 615 0$aSoil science. 615 0$aPhysical geography. 615 0$aGeochemistry. 615 14$aSoil Science. 615 24$aPhysical Geography. 615 24$aGeochemistry. 676 $a605 700 $aIssanova$b Gulnura$01065468 702 $aAbuduwaili$b Jilili 702 $aTynybayeva$b Kuralay 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 912 $a9910720066603321 996 $aSoil cover of the dried Aral seabed in Kazakhstan$93419298 997 $aUNINA
