Summary: | The glaciers of the Caucasus Mountains and their role in water bodies has been investigated in this topic. Changes in glaciers over time on the peaks of the Caucasus mountains Bazarduzu, Shahdag, Bazaryurd and Tufandag were analyzed as well.

A significant percentage of water flows into these rivers as a result of melting glaciers. The nature of the forests of the Greater Caucasus has been studied, and the ways of forest expansion have been investigated.
