Description
  • The region of central Asia is traditionally belongs to a large arid and semiarid area. Climatic condition in Mongolia shows a hanging patterns in precipitation patterns, especially a decrease in the rain frequency, change in the character of rains from weaker and long-lasting to shorter and more intensive, and an increasing number of dust storms. These environmental changes implemented a shift in the growing season, loss of ground water and drying up of watercourses and consequently they negatively influenced socio-cultural patterns and habits of traditional communities. In this chapter we focus on environmental change and its impacts on the traditional life of Mongolian nomads. We presuppose an acceleration of the already ongoing rural-urban migration to capital city and other big cities in the future. The current expansion of slums considerably affects the pressure on the local environment and a decreasing quality of life. Climate change on the one hand and social changes on the other hand resulted in lowering the quality of life in rural areas and limiting the traditional nomadic way of life. The current situation shows not only frequent climatic extremes in the vicinity of the capital city Ulan Bator but also highlights the condition of the massive deforestation of the most valuable forest ecosystems of Central Asia due to the demand for new settlements.
