Assessment of the Soil Cover in the Dried Aral Seabed in Kazakhstan and Climate Change in the Region

The dried Aral seabed is a newly developed anthropogenic salty desert (Aralkum). It is a catastrophic region for all of Central Asia, including Kazakhstan. This research allows us to obtain a better understanding of the transported material properties from the dried seabed during soil deflation caus...

Zusammenfassung:	The dried Aral seabed is a newly developed anthropogenic salty desert (Aralkum). It is a catastrophic region for all of Central Asia, including Kazakhstan. This research allows us to obtain a better understanding of the transported material properties from the dried seabed during soil deflation caused by storms. The seabed is mainly flat plains and undulating ridge plains. The main soil types of the desert are saline soils, including different kinds of solonchaks and sands. The soil texture is sandy loam, and the soils are calcareous and alkaline (pH 7.7–8.6). Carbonates in the soils range from 4.86 to 8.51%, and the soils are susceptible to deflation processes. The humus content in soils is very low (
