Abstract
Water environment in the continent is extremely important for the elucidation of the global environmental system. In particular, the impact on the global environment from its size is large Eurasian continent. Central Asia is located in the central part of the Eurasian continent, is responsible for the foundation of the water environment of the continent. Among Central Asia, while having the water resources of the major rivers, Kyrgyzstan salt contamination by drainage of irrigation, pesticides, and from factories and tourist destinations are concerned. Say at Hosei University, research in Central Asia have been made since ancient times, but a wide range of subject areas, such as the Aral Sea Tibet Taklamakan Desert, only a few studies in Kyrgyzstan, still not enough. Take the water to the water around the rivers and lakes in eastern Kyrgyzstan, in this study, we have analyzed water quality. Water quality of the river was shallow groundwater type type ₃ Ca-HCO overall. On the other hand, inland lake is Lake Ishikukuru ion structure was close to the type Na-Cl. It is said that it has been concentrated by evaporation of water by drying. However, in the rivers and lakes and their inflows Ishikukuru left in a question that the structure of the major dissolved component is different. We analyzed mainly in groundwater and spring water in addition to the river, we will continue to make the clarification of the water environment around the lake Ishikukuru in the future.
