Common Problems of Nature Management

Peat Resources of Russia and their Use

L.I. Inisheva, the Member-Corresp., the Russian Academy of Sciences, Prof.-Dr.Sc. (Agriculth.), the Director of Agroecology Laboratory, E.V. Porohina, Cand. Sc. (Biology), the Assistant professor, the Tomsk State Pedagogical University

Currently, Russia occupies first place in the world for the area of wetlands and peat resources. Mires can huge reserves of fresh water, store carbon, essentially determine water and hydrological regimes of the territory, influencing the climate of the biosphere. However, in Russia the common approach in the directions of their rational use is absent. In the basis for sustainable management of peat resources the authors propose the ecological and economic founds, allowing to develop scenarios of complex use of peat resources with regard to their ecological significance as part of the biosphere.

Keywords: mire, peat resources, rational use, ecological-economic funds.

Based on the analysis of world databases, the features of the manifestation of mineral deposits, magmatism and tectogenesis are considered in time. A conclusion is drawn about the negentropic character of the Earth’s development and its energetic feeding from the outside due to the energy of the Sun. The helio-bio-geological concept of the Earth’s development is grounded.

Yu.A. Bobylov, Can.Sc. (Econom.), the Non-Commercial Partnership (NP) «Russian Council for International Affairs»

Rare metals are characterized by their absent-mindedness in ore deposits. Innovation and industrial policy of Russia in relation to rare metals requires clarification of priorities and better strategic marketing. The article describes the Canadian experience with foreign investment. The analysis shows the growing interest of foreign investors to the development of the world’s major deposits of rare metals. Foreign investment can go into the rare metal industry with the introduction of privileges and preferences. There are done organizational recommendations for government and business.

V.I. Klepov, Federal State Budgetary Educational Institution of Higher Education “Russian Timiryazev State Agrarian University”, Moscow I.V. Ragulina, Regional state budgetary institution of additional professional education “Kursk Institute of Education Development”, Kursk

In accordance with the Water strategy of Russia until 2020, the need to improve the ecological status of water resources in river ba­sins is determined. The processes of interrelation between quantity and quality of water resources in these basins are very important in the management of water resource systems (WRS). One of such VRS consisting of several reservoirs is VRS of the Moscow region. This system is intended for sustainable water supply of one of the largest economic, cultural and scientific centers in Russia. The Moskvoretsky water system (MVS) formed on the basis of the basin of the river of Moscow is an integral part of this water resource system.

Topicality and Environmental Risks of the Use of Selenium Fertilizers Topicality and Environmental Risks of the Use of Selenium Fertilizers

A.P. Kiryushina, Can.Sc. (Biology), the Laboratory of Soils Ecological Functions, the Severtsov Institute of Ecology and Evolution, the Russian Academy of Sciences (RAS)

A brief analysis of the selenium status of soils and problems caused by selenium deficiency in foodstuffs focuses attention on the risks associated with various methods of enriching agricultural products and the use of selenium fertilizers in accordance with the modern methods of enrichment of this important element for all living systems. It is noted that the use of selenium fertilizers in lands with selenium deficiency in soils requires an increased attention to the safety of the consequences of such technological meth­ods for the environment. The necessity of annual monitoring of the state of soil, water and air environments during the introduction of selenium fertilizers into the soil of agricultural lands or when processing green mass of plants is emphasized.

Keywords: rational use of soil resources, healthy diet, selenium-deficient soils, selenium fertilizers, ecomonitoring.

Ecological Analysis of the Meadow Flora of Forest-Steppe on South Non-chernozem Zone with a Change in Anthropogenic Load

A.V. Koshkin, A.N. Nikolskiy, Can.Sc. (Agricult.), Assocciate Professor, D.V. Bochkarev, Prof.-Dr.Sc. (Agricult.), N.V. Smolin, Prof.-D.Sc. (Agricult.), V.D. Bochkarev, the Mordovia National Research State University

The dynamics of ecological groups of meadow species is considered in the article with the change of anthropogenic impact in the XX-begining XXI century. A change in the ratio of the groups of plant life forms of the phytocenoses studied, an increase in the propor­tion of the terophytes that are not characteristic of meadow plant communities is established. The change in environmental conditions associated with climate warming in the last three decades has contributed to an increase in the proportion of xeromesophytes in the formation of a variety of meadow vegetation. In the absence of anthropogenic impact in modern conditions, the heliomorphic and trophomorphic composition of the meadows underwent significant changes. The species spectrum of oligotrophs and megatrophs has considerably expanded. There is increased species representation of shade-tolerant plants.

Keywords: meadows, life forms of plants, ecological groups of plants, dynamics.

A.P. Sadchikov, Dr.Sc. (Biology), S.A. Ostroumov, Dr.Sc. (Biology), the Biological Faculty, the Moscow State University

An analysis of studies on the effects of zooplankton filter-feeders on the development of algae has been carried out. The results of studying prospects for restoring the water quality using biomanipulation of the food chain are presented. The results of research on the influence of carnivorous fish and planktivorous fish on the structure of zooplankton, phytoplankton, algal blooms, water transparency and hydrochemical indicators of water quality are analyzed too. It is shown that the regulation of the abundance of hydrobionts (aquatic organisms) allows to develop a useful approach toward solving important environmental problems and toward approaching goals of sustainable use of water bodies and streams.

Global Problems of Sustainable Development: to the 155th Anniversary of the Birth of V.I. Vernadsky

V.A. Grachev, Prof.-Dr.Sc. (Engineer.), the Member-Corresp., the Russian Academy of Sciences, the Non-Governmental Environmental Foundation nam. V.I. Vernadsky, the Russian Environmental Academy

Based on the analysis of the creative heritage of V.I. Vernadsky in the sphere of global processes, it is shown that his theory of the three components of economic development (labor, capital and creativity) is fundamental in the modern development of mankind. Analy­sis of the links between global problems of sustainable development in the economy, the environment and the social sphere concluded that the world can destroy not global warming, but global fraud of speculative capital, the desire of economic elites to profit on the problem of global processes in the climate. It is shown that the scientific works of V.I. Vernadsky is closely linked to the UN’s Sustain­able Development Goals. It is noted that the creative heritage of V.I. Vernadsky points out the correct way to solve global problems of sustainable development: creative thought, supplementing global natural balances based on homeostasis; Noospheric balances based on the Universal Mind.

Keywords: V.I. Vernadsky, sustainable development, the role of NTP in development, global processes.
