Common Problems of Nature Management

Secondary Resources and Facilities

B.N. Luzgin, Dr. Sc. (Geograph.), Can. Sc. (Geology), the Altai State University

Traditionally, secondary resources are products obtained from waste production of primary natural resources resulting from the recovery of valuable components by improving existing technologies. Due the ever increasing volume of utilized potential of natural resources offered the option of significant expansion of the concepts of secondary resources, with a revision of their classification basis.

Keywords: natural resources, natural resource genetic complex, secondary resources, resources recycling, the residual resources, resuscitation resources.

Technology land management, cadastre and monitoring of lands in Russia and China (countries, largely define the image nearest future) develop abruptly in accordance with the formation of new technological modes of production. It is noted uneven progress in the development of the inventory within the technological structures that is due to differences in the relevance of the problem guarantees of the rights to real estate and taxation in different social settings, regardless of the technology and the complexity of the system functioning of the cadastral account. Outline priority objectives of management of land and property ownership, which should be solved in the short term within 5-6 technological structures.

Keywords: land administration, cadastre, land monitoring, technological modes of production, registration and control of land and property ownership.

Forest Resources in the System of Environment and Economic Accounting in Russia

A.D. Dumnov, Dr.Sc. (Economy), the National Information Agency «Natural Resources» (NIA-Priroda)

The article examines main approaches and questions of the reflection of forest resources (forest wood, timber) as part of complex System of environmental and economic accounting, SEEA, is the development of a common system of national accounting, SNA, in relation to the natural resources, natural resources use and environmental protection. In the most detailed degree studied the provisions of international standard – Central Framework SEEA in version 2012. There are critically analyzed and discussed the possibility of using these provisions in the conditions of the Russian Federation, including the account of assets of forest wood, solving the problem of the valuation of the relevant resources, etc.

Keywords: system of national accounting (SNA), System of environmental and economic accounting (SEEA), SEEA Central Framework-2012, biological assets, forest timber (standing timber), assets balance, valuation of forest timber, discount rate, method of the net present value (NPV), forest management.

In article the history of creation of Red Data Books of world, federal and regional value is briefly stated. The assessment of rare and endangered species for animals, plants and mushrooms in subjects of the Russian Federation is analyzed. The comparative analysis of distribution of endangered species by their quantities, categories of rare status and major groups of organisms is carried out. The comparative assessment of the Russian list of rare species with the IUCN Red List is given.

Keywords: Russian Federation Red Data Book, IUCN Red List, list of rare and endangered species, categories of rare status.
