Currently, there is a process of spatial concentration of the population and the spread of urban lifestyle, which inevitably leads to the expansion of the boundaries of cities and their sphere of influence, an increase in the diversity of activities. In this regard, the creation and maintenance of a comfortable urban environment of a megalopolis is becoming an increasingly urgent managerial task. The decisive factors in supporting urbanized territories in a comfortable state for living are the objects of” green “ infrastructure. One of the important issues, at the same time, is the information support of the management system for the territories of land plots with green spaces.

Abstract The species of the genus Platanus L. are widely used in urban green infrastructure in Bulgaria and abroad, but are proven to be a serious source of allergen pollen emissions. The number of people, affected by pollinosis, is increasing every year and this affects the world economy and health of the population in a high level. The pollen of the plane tree is light, very small and spreads anemophilically. This is one of the genera that produce the largest amount of pollen per inflorescence. This makes Platanus a tree of a high allergy potential that has the tendence to get higher in time, because of its increasing use in urban green spaces. The aim of this study is to collect data for allergy potential of the three species of plane tree in some of the European countries, where the allergy is a significant problem, and to compare the sensitization of patients to its pollen in Bulgaria.

Introduction. A promising direction of nature management, which allows avoiding the degradation of the biosphere, is the implementation of economic and other activities with minimal impact on nature. The state of health of the population is influenced by a complex of environmental factors. The load of atmospheric air is perceived by the respiratory organs, vision, and the skin. Water influences in the form of precipitation, both drinking and recreational. The direct effect of soil on human health occurs through direct contact with the skin, inhalation and oral intake into the body. Green spaces have a significant impact on the quality of urbanized soil, water and air, as well as the health of residents. The main aspect of environmental protection and maintaining a favorable microclimate in settlements is the preservation and recreation of the “green” fund. Materials and methods. Systematic analysis of scientific literature, statistical data, regulatory documents. Results. The dependence of Russians on the influence of sanitary and hygienic factors of the environment is shown. The dynamics of the indicator “green spaces” in the urban environment quality index for the group “largest cities” is considered. On the example of St. Petersburg, the satisfaction of residents with the sphere of landscaping the territories of city districts is shown. It is proposed to conditionally divide the main problems of the development of “green” infrastructure into groups. The conceptual principles that constitute the methodological basis for the creation of a “green” frame of a settlement have been determined. Formed a group of criteria for assessing the “green” infrastructure, which are indicators of technical progressivity and social significance, with predictive ability and consistency. Conclusions. The necessary and sufficient amount of green spaces, normalizing the quality of the urban environment, can have a positive impact on the physical and mental health of residents. Strategic planning for the development of the “green” infrastructure of the settlement, ensuring the viability of the green frame, should take into account all its elements and include landscaping of land plots adjacent to the territories of multi-family dwelling.

The matters of the organization of risk management of the heat-supplying organizations (HSO), focused on the increase in the reliability of the heating systems maintenance are considered in the article. The characteristic of the current maintenance conditions of HSO in the countries of the former Soviet Union, which distinction is the existence of some state plans for the change of the heat-supplying industry development financing in the Russian Federation and Uzbekistan, similar in the target orientation. The new methodological-and-methodical approach to the determination of the interrelation between the heating systems maintenance reliability and the risks of HSO with their differentiation according to the significance values, complemented with the classification of risks on the basis of the equilibrium-and-balanced approach and the formation of the matrix for risk analysis is offered as the research result. Due to the purpose of the creation of risk management system in HSO the current state of the information support of their activity, which is recognized insufficient, is studied. The results of the analysis of the interrelation between the reasons of failures during the delivery of heat to consumers because of risks, having constructive, technologic and labour character, and stages of the heating systems lifecycle are presented. Three models of the assessment of the level of engineering structures reliability, depending on the assessment of situation in HSO are offered to the discussion. The risk management system in HSO is considered as an important condition of the reliability assurance, the substantial characteristic of its main components is given.

With the ascendancy of neoliberalism, the Australian state has not only remained strongly interventionist but has also expanded its sphere of influence and scope of activity. This is contrary to claims of a reduced, withered or slimmed neoliberal state. The Australian state's interventions have become increasingly varied in the overwhelming pursuit of structural competitiveness. It has developed an extensive ‘micro-structuring’ role, particularly through the creation of new regulatory instruments and institutions, but has not relinquished its economic ‘macro-structuring’ role notwithstanding changes to macroeconomic policy priorities. The Australian state's interventions have shaped all institutional forms comprising the mode of régulation that guides and supports the accumulation regime. This article discusses the reconfiguration of the Australian state and the forms of its ongoing interventions which have secured and sustained the contemporary growth regime.

The urbanization process significantly reduced the permeability of land surfaces, which affected the changes of runoff characteristics and the relations in the hydrological cycle. In urban environments, the relationships within the hydrological cycle have changed in quantity, in particular: precipitation, air temperature, evaporation, and infiltration. By applying the green infrastructure (GI) to urban environments is beneficial for the water resources and the social community. GI has an effect on the improvement of ecological, economic, and social conditions. Using GI into urban areas increases the permeability of land surfaces, whereby decreasing surface runoff, and thus the frequency of urban floods. It also has a significant influence on the regulation of air quality, water purification, climate change impact, and the changes in the appearance of the urban environment. When planning and designing the GI, it is necessary to identify the type of GI and determine the size and location of the selected GI. Since each urban environment has its own characteristics, it is necessary to analyze them before deciding on the GI. The paper analyzed meteorological parameters (precipitation, air temperature, insolation, air humidity) affecting the selection of GI types, using the specific example of an urban environment – the City of Osijek, Croatia. Significant parameters when designing GI are operation and maintenance These parameters directly affect the efficiency of GI. The proper selection of GI and its location results in maximum gains: the reduction of land surface drainage - drainage of the sewage system, purification and retention of precipitation at the place of production, the improvement of air quality, and the improvement of living conditions in urban environments


Purpose. To characterize the methodological approaches that we develop in the formation of a system of information support for the creation and maintenance of the functioning of modern sustainable agricultural landscapes and to show the results of their implementation on the example of the territory of some agricultural enterprises of the Kharkiv region. Methods. Cartographic, geoinformation analysis, calculation, statistical and mathematical. Results. Some results of the work of the collective on the issues of information support for the creation and maintenance of the functioning of modern sustainable agricultural landscapes. Namely, verification of erosion models, studies of the functionality of shelter belts, the formation of an agroeconet (an extensive network of natural and quasi-natural landscapes) on agricultural land massifs, which ensures the maintenance of stable functioning of meso and macrolevel agrolandscapes, as well as the experience of using magnetic prospecting methods to verify the results of mathematical modeling of erosion processes. Conclusions. A number of methodological approaches to information support of the formation of sustainable agricultural landscapes in the natural and socio-economic conditions of Ukraine have been developed. They relate to the functioning of anti-erosion measures of permanent action, the processes of modern transformation of agro-landscapes, the ecological impact of erosion processes on the environment. The connection between the length of forest belts per unit of arable land and soil erosion is shown. A methodical approach has been developed to estimate the amount of soil washed away from arable land and to calculate the measures necessary to eliminate its harmful effects on the environment.
