The territory of Kazakhstan has a unique set of landscape complexes:
from deserts to highlands and ecosystems of the inland seas. In the context of the
increasing pace of economic development of the country and the increased use of natural
resources, the issue of preserving the biological diversity of ecological systems, unique
natural complexes, objects of the nature reserve fund, cultural and natural heritage of
the Republic of Kazakhstan is becoming relevant - one of the important tasks of the
state at the present stage. The purpose of the study: to study the geomorphological
features of the structure of the terrain of the Chingirlau district of the West Kazakhstan region. The theoretical and methodological basis of the study consists of general
scientific methods: descriptive, comparative, statistical, system analysis, cartographic.
The research methodology is based on a system of general principles and approaches.
General scientific: complex, integral, systemic, ecological, geographical. As a result
of research on the territory of the Chingirlau district of the West Kazakhstan region,
geomorphological features were studied, where a schematic map was compiled based
on ecosystem analysis and GIS technology. An analysis was made of the geographical
position and geomorphological features of the territory, where on the surface of the
Poduralsky Plateau and the Ural Valley Plain are complicated by negative and positive
landforms created as a result of the redistribution of colossal masses of salts in ancient
deep sedimentary layers (halokinesis). This process and tectonic movements have created
a large number of hills and hummocks of different types, estuarine, lake and lake-sor
depressions. Steppe saucers (micro-depressions), common for flat watersheds, most
likely have a suffusion origin, possibly in combination with karst processes. Natural
relief complexes of river valleys are developed along the rivers. These features are
reflected in the landscape structure and its dynamics within the district.
