Problems of development of the integrated environmental monitoring system and approaches to their solution

Resumo

The analysis is given of the present situation and current preparedness of available approaches to the implementation of the Roshydromet concept of the improvement of environmental pollution monitoring system taking into account differences in goals and objectives that different components of this system should achieve at the federal, regional, and local levels. The structure and functional scheme of the National environmental pollution monitoring system is discussed. The approximate allocation of functions is put forward among the monitoring system components of different levels as well as the distribution of responsibilities and powers among stakeholders to ensure the implementation of these functions. The key issues of establishing an integrated monitoring system are discussed. The network-centric approach to the system management organization is proposed. Specific goals, objectives, and strategies can be set for different components of this system which may differ in terms both of algorithms and actual parameters. The development of the main technological components of the integrated environmental monitoring system (monitoring networks and information systems) is considered.
