Аннотация

Растущий спрос на продовольствие, биотопливо и другие сельскохозяйственные товары, а также усиление изменения климата создают существенные вызовы для развития сельскохозяйственного сектора Центральной Азии с точки зрения внедрения принципов устойчивого управления земельными ресурсами.  Центральноазиатский регион является «горячей точкой» изменения климата.  Меры по адаптации систем сельскохозяйственного землепользования к изменению климата предполагают новые компромиссные подходы к обеспечению качества и доступности экосистемных услуг (ЭУ).  На основе обзора тематических исследований в настоящей статье приводятся примеры таких компромиссных сценариев и возможных решений.  Экорегионы Центральной Азии демонстрируют глубокую взаимозависимость.  Ввиду этого особое внимание следует уделять анализу трансрегиональных последствий использования экосистемных услуг.  С учетом различных концепций устойчивого развития (ЭСУ, ЦУР, Глобальные экологические синдромы (англ. Global Environmental Syndromes)) возникает необходимость в интегративных подходах к устойчивому использованию ландшафтов и ландшафтному проектированию.
