TLDR
In this paper, the authors performed an extensive literature review, and the data showed that water pollution in Central Asia is closely linked to human activities, and that the salinities of rivers and groundwater in the middle and lower reaches of inland rivers generally increase along the flow path due to high rates of evaporation.

Evolution of the Altaid tectonic collage and Palaeozoic crustal growth in Eurasia

TL;DR: A new tectonic model, postulating the growth of giant subduction-accretion complexes along a single magmatic arc now found contorted between Siberia and Baltica, shows that Asia grew by 5.3 million square kilometres during the Palaeozoic era as mentioned in this paper.
