Saxaul (Haloxylon spp.) forests represent one of the most ecologically significant yet highly vulnerable desert ecosystems in Central Asia. These formations play a crucial role in stabilizing sandy soils, regulating local microclimates, conserving biodiversity, and mitigating the adverse impacts of desertification. In recent decades, climate change, increased anthropogenic pressure, and improper land-use practices have accelerated the degradation of saxaul ecosystems across Kazakhstan. This expanded manuscript provides a comprehensive analysis of innovative restoration techniques for saxaul forests with a particular focus on their climate resilience. By integrating historical forestry data, remote-sensing assessments, field monitoring results, and current scientific developments, the study evaluates the efficiency of seed-based, vegetative, and biotechnological restoration methods under arid climatic conditions. Research findings indicate that the use of hydroseeding mixtures, polymer-based water retainers, and climate-adaptive planting schemes significantly improves seedling survival rates, especially in regions with extreme temperature fluctuations and minimal precipitation. Additionally, GIS-based monitoring and soil-moisture modeling provide important predictive tools for optimizing planting density and identifying priority restoration zones. The paper emphasizes the necessity of long-term ecological monitoring, introduction of drought-resistant genotypes, and integration of local community participation to ensure sustainable recovery of saxaul forests in a rapidly changing climate.
