Climate Change and Temperature Increase: Future Forecast

  After analyzing data on average annual temperatures across various regions of Tajikistan over several decades, Tajik climatologist Nomvar Kurbon has identified a clear trend of rising temperatures, which could lead to negative consequences. Kurbon emphasizes that the country must urgently implement measures to adapt to these changes.

According to the information portal “Weather and Climate,” average annual temperatures in various regions of Tajikistan—Bokhtar, Dushanbe, Khorog, and Khujand—have steadily risen over the past five decades, from 1974 to the present. Thus, in Bokhtar, the average annual temperature has increased from 15.6°C to 18.3°C over the past 50 years. In Dushanbe, it has risen from 13.7°C to 16.9°C. Khorog and Khujand also reflect this trend, with average annual temperatures rising steadily each decade. Since the beginning of 2020, these temperatures have reached 10.7°C in Khorog and 16.5°C in Khujand.
