Abstract
The problems of global climate warming in general and their impact on the melting of glaciers in
Tajikistan are analyzed. Based on long-term observations of weather stations located in different zones of the
Zerafshan River basin and comparison of changes in average air temperature over two decades (1960-1990 and
1990-2020), the process of climatic warming in the area is considered. Using long-term meteorological data (air
temperature) and satellite images that recorded the degradation of the linguistic part of the Zerafshan, Rama, Rossinj,
Touro, Dihadang and GGP glaciers, the linear regression dependence of the retreat of these glaciers on temperature
growth is investigated.
