Abstract

The article presents a comparative analysis of the impact of mining enterprises on vegetation, which is the main component of the environment, on the northeastern slope of the Lesser Caucasus.

The goal is to implement fundamental measures to prevent the impact of the mining industry on the environment and to minimize this impact, for which the main direction is the application of the most modern new technologies and equipment.

Dashkasan district was selected as the research area in order to assess the impact of the mining industry on soil and vegetation. The study was conducted on the basis of a comparative analysis of materials from 1990, 2000, 2010 and 2020. Initially, satellite images of the corresponding years were obtained.

The current study reflects the changes in ecosystems in the area in different periods. The decline in mountain species and forest-free areas indicates the effects of human activity, agriculture and climate change. At the same time, it shows the potential for the increase in shrubs and pastures, restoration and improvement of ecosystems.

This information is important in developing strategies for the protection and restoration of ecosystems. The following measures can be proposed to support the restoration process.
