Using E-W and vertical deformation-rate maps derived from radar interferometric time-series, we analyze the deformation field of an entire orogenic segment, that is, Tajik depression its adjoining mountain belts, Tian Shan, Pamir, Hindu Kush. The data-base consists 900+ scenes acquired over 2.0–4.5 years global navigation satellite system measurements. recent, supra-regional kinematics is visua...

The current situation in the Vorukh enclave, located Ferghana Valley, whose borders are clearly disputed by two Central Asian republics, Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan, seems rather complicated. Like many other enclaves within Asia, has high unemployment rates socio-economic issues endemic for this region. enclave turned into major ignition point border clashes between Kyrgyz Tajik forces last few d...

The essential oil from the aerial parts of Salvia sclarea L., growing wild in Tajikistan, were obtained by hydrodistillation and analyzed by gas chromatography – mass spectrometry. A total of 59 compounds were identified representing 94.2% of total oil composition. Major components of the essential oil were linalyl acetate (39.2%), linalool (12.5%), germacrene D (11.4%), α-terpineol (5.5%), ger...

We described in this report the essential geographic layers used as landscape drivers for the Marco Polo Argali habitat in the eastern Tajik Pamirs. Using remote sensing techniques and geographic information systems (GIS), individual layers were generated in order to acquire more information on argali patterns and habitat suitability and to make the dataset available online. We introduced an im...

Many researchers use texts from the web, an easy source of linguistic data in a great variety of languages. Building both large and good quality text corpora is the challenge we face nowadays. In this paper we describe how to deal with inefficient data downloading and how to focus crawling on text rich web domains. The idea has been successfully implemented in SpiderLing. We present efficiency ...
