FLOODING OF 2024 IN TURGAY-IRGYZ INTERFLOW: THE IMPACT ON THE BIODIVERSITY ASSESSED BY SATELLITE DATA
The impact of extreme flooding in 2024 on the environment and biodiversity was assessed by remote sensing data for the region of Aktobe Oblast. The climatic conditions were compared for dry, wet and moderately wet years along with those during the flooding year 2024. It was demonstrated for remote and sparsely populated areas that using satellite data and cloud calculations represents a reliable method of flood impact assessment. Different possible impacts of flooding events on several components of biodiversity (vegetation, terrestrial verte-brates) are discussed using case studies from other countries.
