Brief Bio

In my research activities, such studies have been carried out as the influence of herbaceous vegetation on the change in the hydraulic characteristics of the flow during the natural restoration of rivers, the influence of vegetation on the course of the channel process of the Naryn River; analysis of the state of irrigation canals in the Naryn region, the use of renewable energy sources, their distribution, floodplain areas and ecosystem services of floodplain forests, climate change on water resources and their hydrological regimes. There are 35 publications in scientific research journals in Kyrgyzstan and foreign countries. Including the latest publications on the topic: “Dynamics of floodplains along the Naryn River in Kyrgyzstan - anthropogenic impacts and influences of climate change”, “Analysis of the use of renewable energy sources in Kyrgyzstan”, “Analysis of land use efficiency on the water discharge of the Fnoska River. " and etc.

My PhD thesis in Hydraulic Engineering and Hydraulics and Engineering Hydrology was defended on January 29, 2007. Thesis topic: "The influence of herbaceous vegetation on the change in the hydraulic characteristics of the flow during the nature-close restoration of rivers." In September 2016, I was awarded the title of Associate Professor of the Department of Agricultural and Technical Disciplines.

Since 2014, she has participated in the implementation of international projects such as “Master programs on Renewable Energy Efficiency in Buildings in Central Asia and Russia” TEMPUS, EcoCAR - Ecosystem Assessment and Capacity Building for Sustainable Management of Floodplains, Ecosystem-based Adaptation to Climate Change in High Mountain Regions in Central Asia ”(EbA) and Okoflusplan - Preservation of selected Ecosystem Services in the Riparian Areas of the Naryn River (Kyrgyzstan) using renewable Energy Technologies and Short Rotation Coppices, involving sustainable Land and Water Management and Capacity Building.

Currently I teach at the Department of Agrarian and Technological Disciplines at Naryn State University and continue my scientific and pedagogical activities. She has developed a complete educational and methodological complex for the discipline "Hydropower plants", educational and methodological manual for the implementation of independent work of students "Renewable energy sources".
