The Impact of Water Reservoirs on Biodiversity and Food Security and the Creation of Adaptation Mechanisms

Problems of food security and the preservation of
reserved zones in the region of Central Asia under the conditions of
the climate change induced by the placement and construction of
large reservoirs are considered. The criteria for the optimum
placement and construction of reservoirs that entail the minimum
impact on the environment are established. The need for the
accounting of climatic parameters is shown by the calculation of the
water quantity required for the irrigation of agricultural lands.
