Formation of the network structure of specially protected natural areas of the Volgograd region

Abstract

The article analyses the priority directions of the activity on the formation of the network structure of specially protected natural areas at the regional level. A specific attention is paid to the issues of the creation of an assessment system, specification of the content, analytical understanding of the process at the construction of the administrational vertical structure which ensures the unity of control methods throughout the network space. The role of cadastral registration is studied. This type or accounting presents a set of systematized and regularly updated data and it is necessary not only for the provision of a target work of the specially protected natural areas and also at the land amelioration, zoning, urban development i.e. in all the cases dealing with the use of natural resources and their impact on the environment. The authors emphasize the existence within the same region of territories of various territories and importance. The mentioned fact does not allow providing their security within a common functionally and territorially related system without additional efforts of the identification of a common content, common goal and tasks of the administration of territories and administrative units within which these regions are located. The authors suggest a scheme for the organization of works at the formation of a network structure of the specially protected natural areas in the region and a structure of the assessment matrix of the specially protected natural areas of a region. It is substantiated that the existing system of the specially protected natural areas allows using the network approach as a potentially possible way of the improvement of the relations in the protection of specially protected natural areas. This will allow reducing man made risks and preventing negative ecological scenarios in the Volgograd region.
