The problem of rational use and protection geological environment of southwestern uzbekistan in hydromeliorative construction

Abstract

Southwestern Uzbekistan in Central Asia is distinguished by a peculiar geological and tectonic structure, relief, hydrogeological conditions, composition and properties of rocks, peculiarities of the course of exogenous geological processes. Irrigation and reclamation works in the formation of agricultural areas have significant and diverse effects on the geological environment of the region and cause qualitative and quantitative changes in engineering-geological and hydrogeological conditions, which are manifested over large areas. The article presents the results of engineering-geological and hydrogeological surveys and studies, directions of changes in natural hydrogeological and engineering-geological conditions, characteristics and conditions of the geological environment of South-West Uzbekistan under the influence of individual irrigated areas, mountainous areas. and foothill areas. It also indicates what preventive measures need to be developed during engineering preparation for the development of the territory, and the conclusions are given.
