Abstract

The article detail studies the activation of mudflow phenomena as a result of the action of natural and man-made factors in the mountain and foothill zones of the Gazakh-Tovuz economic region and their impact on population settlement and the territorial organization of farms. Comprehensive studies were carried out using airphotopictures from different years, forecasts of mudflow hazards and mudflow areas were given, and trends in the development and expansion of active mudflow centers were determined. A comparative analysis of statistical materials, mapping was carried out, using remote sensing and modern GIS technologies, the impact of mudflows on the population and territorial organization of farms in the study area was assessed, the zoning of mudflows by frequency of occurrence was given, as well as based on an analysis of scientific research conducted in this area. By mathematical analysis of actual statistical indicators substantiates in detail the role of the anthropogenic factor in the intensification of mudflows and the increase in economic damage they cause to the territorial organization of the economy, and ways to combat them are studied.
