Climate change poses a formidable threat to the Central Asian region, exacerbating preexisting vulnerabilities and necessitating enhanced adaptation efforts. The economic and environmental costs of these changing climatic conditions are substantial, compelling governments to bolster their adaptive capacity. In this study, we employ the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) adaptation framework and high-quality data to quantitatively measure the capacities of the Central Asian countries to adapt to the impacts of climate change.

This study aims to identify the relationship between CO2 emissions and economic growth to assess the influence on climate change. Design: The algorithm was chosen for research provision: statistical and comparative analysis, correlation, and regression analysis. The data for 1999-2020 was obtained from the World Bank and the Bureau of National Statistics. Results: After looking at the conditions and factors that affect Kazakhstan’s energy system, we believe it is essential to study how different factors affect economic growth, with a focus on environmental change. The results of modeling with regression models back this up. The model demonstrated that energy consumption has the most significant influence on CO2 emissions; however, in the GDP model, all factors, such as urbanization, energy consumption, and energy pricing, had an equal impact.

Understanding forest phenology is essential for monitoring global carbon budgets and managing vegetation resources in a changing climate. In southern Kyrgyzstan, walnut and wild apple trees dominate the forest landscape. These forests contain unique genetic diversity and offer potential for the development of climate-resilient crop varieties. They also support local communities through activities such as grazing, firewood collection, and fruit harvesting. However, these practices pose a threat to natural regeneration. Climate change exacerbates these challenges by altering their ecological niche. Despite this, few studies have examined forest phenology and its relationship to climate in Kyrgyzstan.

Процессы изменения климата происходят в глобальном масштабе и сопровождаются выбросами в атмосферу значительных количеств парниковых газов, преобладающими из которых являются оксид углерода и диоксид углерода. В аналитическом обзоре представлены результаты состояния изученности и оценки существующих исследований по секвестированию углерода лесными насаждениями. Леса играют ключевую роль в изменении климата, поглощая большое количество углекислого газа из атмо-сферы. Они являются наиболее важным наземным поглотителем углерода. Два ключевых показателя: биомасса и продуктивность лесов определяют уровень накопления углерода в экосистеме. Методы оценки секвестирования углерода лесными насаждениями включают использование различных моделей, таких как InVEST, CO2FIX, CBM-CFS3 и других.
