Procedure of Macroecological Rough-Drought Mapping of Mining and Processing Industry Zones in Russia

详细

The methodical basis is given for the macroecological rough-draught mapping of mining and processing industry zones at a local and regional scale by the key indices and numerical values of geoecological indicators reflecting the real biota response from the results of remote sensing of vegetation cover, with description of contamination sources and production infrastructure. Judged from the functional purpose of maps, the rough-draught maps provide an assessment of current state and quality of the natural environment using the relevant standards and ratings with regard to a human being and the biota as a whole as the principal ecological subject.
