Assesment of Local Water Resource in Kuljuktov Mountain System

Since most of the territory of the Republic of Uzbekistan is located in the arid zone, water issues for drinking and irrigation purposes are crucial in order to solve the challenges in these areas. One way to alleviate this problem is the efficient use of local water resources. The low mountains that exist on the plains of the country are a source of local water resources. There are more than a dozen low-mountain ranges in the plain part of Kizilkum desert such as Bukantov, Tomditov, Kuljuktov. The paper is devoted to assess water resources by applying geographic information systems in the southern slope of the Kuljutov Range.
