Aralkum

The Aralkum is one by the silting up of the Aral Sea desert that borders the Kyzyl Kum and Karakum the. It provides a habitat for plants and animals, but takes place with increasing decline of the riparian zone and the onset of drought back the vegetation, leaving dry desert area, which is the starting point for salt and sand storms. These affect both the flora and fauna in the wider area as well as people's health negatively.

So far, there are few research contributions to Aralkum, especially as a habitat, because it is a relatively new area unit, but many works on the subject of the Aral Sea also deal with the silted area.
