“…There are currently studies underway using RS and GIS data to study long-term changes in LULC in individual regions of the country. These works are devoted to the study of land-use changes outside the direct influence of urban sprawl [37][38][39][40] or only in the city itself [41]. At the same time, a comprehensive assessment of the impact of large cities of Kazakhstan on the surrounding agricultural areas using long-term spatiotemporal data series remains open for determining sustainable development approaches for both cities and PUAs.…”

A Spatiotemporal Assessment of Land Use and Land Cover Changes in Peri-Urban Areas: A Case Study of Arshaly District, Kazakhstan

In this study, the spatiotemporal dynamics of land use and land cover (LULC) were evaluated in the peri-urban area of the Arshaly district, which borders the capital of the Republic of Kazakhstan. Landsat multispectral images were used to study the changes in LULC. The analysis of LULC dynamics was carried out using supervised classification with a multi-temporal interval (1998, 2008, and 2018). During the study period, noticeable changes occurred in LULC. There was an increase in the area of arable land and forests and a reduction in the pastures. There was a sharp increase in the built-up area; that is, there was an intensification of land use through an increase in the share of arable land as well as the transformation of agricultural land for development. However, in general, the influence of urban sprawl in this peri-urban area has so far been accompanied by only a slight focus on its sustainable development.

This study focuses on the spatiotemporal dynamics of land use and land cover (LULC) in the Tselinograd district, which is a peri-urban area (PUA) of the metropolis Nur-Sultan. The analysis of LULC dynamics in PUA was carried out based on a supervised classification in the twenty-year interval (1998, 2008, and 2018). During the study period, noticeable changes occurred in the structure of LULC. At the border with the city, the built-up area increased dramatically. In the PUA the area of arable land and forests has grown steadily and pasture land has been declining. That is, there is an intensification of land use due to an increase in the share of arable land in the study area. The main drivers of LULC change in PUA are urban expansion and population growth of the Nur Sultan metropolis. In general, as a result of reasonable economic and legislative measures, the influence of the Urban sprawl of the capital of Kazakhstan on the PUA is still accompanied by a slight effect on its sustainable development. Our approach by using Geo-Information Techniques is useful for the rapid detection of phenomena and processes that can lead to the unstable development of PUA.

“…As one of the two major rivers in Central Asia, research on the ecological environmental changes of the Syr Darya River, and its basin, has always been a hot spot of current research. Many fruitful studies have been carried out on climate change and surface water hydrological processes [14,15]; water resources and management [8,16,17]; land cover and irrigation suitability evaluation [18,19]; and soil degradation and its environmental effects [20][21][22]. Among them, Konstantinovna and Zheksembaevna [23], in the study of soil degradation in the basin, found that by investigating land cover changes in the modern delta of the Syr Darya River, from 1956 to 2008, that the trend of soil salinization was more pronounced due to the shrinking of the Aral Sea and the effects of aridification.…”

Soil salinization has become a worldwide issue affecting agricultural development. Statistical methods and spatial analysis were used to analyze the degree and type of saline soils and their spatial distribution. The driving factors of soil salinity were explored using Geodetetcor models. In this study, 84 soil samples were collected from a 0–20 cm soil layer, and the total salt concentration and salt ion composition were measured. The results of statistical analysis and cluster analysis showed that SO42− and Ca2+ had the highest concentrations of salt ions in terms of anion and cation contents, respectively. The interpolation results indicated that the study area was dominated by mild saline soils, with sulfate-type saline soils and chloride-sulfate-type soils dominating. Results of the factor detector suggested that the distance to the irrigation system (0.425), and distance to the drainage system (0.42), explained salinity more strongly in the Shardara district, and elevation (0.326) was the most important influencing factor for salinity in the Mahtaaral district. Results of the interaction detector indicate that human factors (distance to irrigation canals ∩ distance to drainage canals) had a stronger explanation both in the Shardara and Mahtaaral districts. This research provides a scientific basis for soil salinity regulation and management, which is crucial for sustainable agricultural development.
