DESERTS OF UZBEKISTAN
Keywords:
deserts, semi-deserts, continent, Uzbekistan, valley, populated areas, high mountain ranges, wide steppes, riparian wetlands, the Aral SeaAbstract
Uzbekistan is globally and regionally important due to its location between the European, Middle Eastern, and Asian biogeographical regions. Its varying landscapes of high mountain ranges, wide steppes, deserts, riparian wetlands, and the Aral Sea has resulted in a diversity of habitats. Uzbekistan is a very important flyway for many migratory bird species between northern Europe and their wintering grounds in Africa and Asia.
