On Some Aspects of Climate Change, Drought and Mitigation of Risk of Desertification in Arid Regions of Georgia

ABSTRACT:
In the present work we have collected data of water resources in the eastern dry land territory of Georgia. The specific properties of regional climate warming process in the eastern Georgia is studied by statistical methods and mathematical modeling. The effect of the Eastern Georgian climate change upon risk of desertification is investigated. For the description of desertification favoring processes, the earth surface temperature and precipitations are studied. A set of urgent measures, which are necessary to mitigate the negative impact of droughts are proposed. The specific peculiarities of the thermodynamic model of desertification process are discussed. Some recommendations for halting the desertification process and restoration of soil active layer are given.
