Abstract

The spatial and temporal features of the direction and speed of wind from the Aral Sea in the settlements located in ecological disaster zone of the Republic of Kazakhstan were analyzed. Ecological-hygienic and statistical methods were used. The results showed that during the cold period, the wind direction from Big Aral was registered in Aralsk at a speed of 5 m/s and remained for 45.8±2.12; CI 46.01 and 45.6% days per year, in Aiteke-bi – 6 m/s and for 45.8±2.33; CI 46.1 and 45.6% days, in Shalkar – 3 m/s and for 54.3±2.72; CI 54.5 and 53.9% days. In the warm period, the wind speed was higher than 3-5 m/s, and its direction from the Aral Sea remained in Aralsk for 33.3±2.01; CI 33.5 and 33.6% days per year, in Aitek-bi – for 15.8±1.71; CI 15.95 and 15.63% days. The duration of winds at a speed of 12 m/s remained in Shalkar for 70.8±2.48; CI 71.1 and 71.6% days per year. The wind strength on the Beaufort scale corresponded to a weak and moderate. According to the results, the occurrence of dust storms in Aralsk was registered >10.4 days per year. The maximum frequency moved from the spring summer months to the spring months.
