Abstract

The article presents the results of a study of soil moisture dynamics in the tugai forests of the Syrdarya River. This study was conducted along the floodplain of the Syrdarya River at the KSI “Otrar Forestry”. The study is devoted to identifying the influence of soil moisture in the tugai forest zone. In these territories, the studies were conducted from April to September 2021. Soil moisture of the tugai forest in the floodplain of the Syrdarya River was studied using genetic horizons with sampling to determine the physical properties and degree of humidity. To determine the dynamics of soil moisture, the studied sites were selected in the near-river and central parts, along the Syrdarya River. To study the dynamics of soil moisture, detailed soil samples were taken three times depending on the season. The sampling depth was from 0 to 1 m. The amount of moisture in soil horizons was determined in laboratory conditions. According to the obtained data, the dynamics of soil moisture are analyzed.
