The assessment of ecological-geomorphological conditions of Verkhneandomsky (on the Upper Andoma river), “Atleka” and Andomskaya Gora (Andoma Mountain) protected areas was performed by Moscow State University and Moscow State University of Geodesy and Cartography researchers during 2002–2017. The aim of the study was to evaluate conditions for the development of exogenous relief-forming processes under the influence of natural factors using geoinformation systems (GIS). Topographic maps (scale 1:100 000) were vectorized and transformed to the uniform coordinate reference system (Gauss-Krueger projection, Pulkovo-42 datum). The GIS allows carrying out the ecological-geomorphological analysis of exogenous relief-forming processes of specially protected natural areas (PAs), relying on the grouped materials in the database, adding the parameters of the “erosion layer” and conducting their subsequent processing. Spatial analysis in GIS environment made it possible to identify similarities in karst processes and the difference in their intensity, expressed in the thickness and spatial distribution of the “erosion stratum” of the landscape reserves of the Verkhneandomsky and “Atleka”, which is defined by the relief of the karst-glacial-lake basin and the “karst” plateau, respectively. On the Andomskaya Gora natural monument, the suffusion-karst process and ravine dominate, which is caused by lithology (sand and sandstones) of rocks and significant relative height of the coastal ledge. Topographic, geological, geomorphological, and thematic information, as well as the boundaries and unique characteristics of the protected areas, allowed us to compile a series of derived maps reflecting the purpose of the research.

Specially Protected Areas

The concept of “ecological tourism” both in the world and in Russia has appeared in the second half of the twentieth century, although people traveled with natural-focused purposes, including around the protected areas, much earlier. The article presents several definitions of ecotourism, including the two given by the authors. The authors note that ecotourism can be developed in two ways: as a journey on any remaining natural areas or as tour, excursion exclusively within specially protected natural areas (SPNA). The second option is successfully developed in many Englishspeaking countries. The article confirms this fact using the original modern data on the dynamics of visits to the most famous national parks in the USA. Based on the analysis of literature and Internet sources it is concluded that the governance of the Russian Federation considers it necessary to develop eco-tourism in our country according to the second “North American” concept. In this case, the people attending the state protected areas – national parks and reserves with educational and recreational goals should be considered as eco-tourists. Based on this assumption the authors of the article give modern official data concerning the number of specially protected areas of different types in Russia as main destinations of ecotourism. The article presents the diagrams showing the quantitative characteristics of the infrastructure for ecotourists in specially protected areas: visitor centers, museums, ecological paths and routes. The dynamics of tourist arrivals in the reserves and national parks of Russia for the period 2001-2016 years is analyzed. In the final part of the article the main problems of eco-tourists recording are identified.

The Altai Territory is notable for its poorly studied entomofauna of specially protected natural areas. The work first provides the results of the study of the fauna of necrophilous Coleoptera on the territory of the natural monument "The Mouth of the Peschanaya River". The collection was conducted with the help of soil traps with bait. 51 species from 7 Coleptera families were found. Carabidae and species of other families not belonging to the ecological group under study were not taken into account. Staphylinidae was the most numerous in terms of species (54,9% of the total number of species), significantly inferior to Silphidae and Scarabaeidae (13,7% and 9,8% respectively), the share of the remaining four families (Histeridae, Leiodidae, Hydrophilidae, Dermestidae) was 21,6% in total. Silphidae (Nicrophorus vespillo, Oiceoptoma thoracicum, etc.) dominated the numbers. The dominant species (Nicrophorus vespilloides) belongs to the same family. Common and numerous were Anoplotrupes stercorosus, Aphodius rectus (Scarabaeidae), Sciodrepoides watsoni (Leiodidae). Of staphilinids, the most numerous in terms of species were not dominant, only three species (Philonthus cruentatus, Aleochara curtula, Drusilla canaliculata) had the second class of abundance, the rest were single species, from 1 to 4 individuals. In Staphylinidae, in addition to the usual herpetobionic and necrophilous species, species characteristic of the banks of reservoirs (Philonthus quisquiliarius, Bledius sp.), fungi (Oxyporus maxillosus, Gyrophena sp.) were present in the collections. An assessment of species richness, dominance and equilibrium in the community of necrophilous Coleoptera showed average values of Shannon index (H = 2,2), Berger-Parker index (d = 0, 0,43) and Pielou’s evenness index (E = 0, 0,57).

Introduction. This article is devoted to the analysis of the peculiarities of the legal regime of land plots within the boundaries of protected zones of specially protected natural territories. Due to their special significance and uniqueness, specially protected natural territories form the nature reserve fund of the Russian Federation with a special mechanism for protection and protection from negative anthropogenic impact. Protected areas are one of the measures to protect such specially protected natural areas as state nature reserves, national parks, natural parks and natural monuments, as well as one of the most important elements of the legal regime of lands of specially protected natural areas. The creation of data on specially protected natural areas, as a rule, is followed by the subsequent approval of the regulations on their protected zones. Since the legislation does not have peremptory norms on the mandatory creation of protection zones, such zones are not widespread at the federal and regional levels. Theoretical Basis. Methods. An important role in the process of studying the peculiarities of the legal regime of land plots within the boundaries of specially protected natural territories was played by systematic, comparative, formal-legal methods. Results. The features of the establishment, modification and termination of the protection zones of specially protected natural areas, as well as the features of coordination of their borders and the entry of information into cadasters and registers are considered. Based on a comprehensive analysis of judicial practice, conclusions are drawn about the need to improve the mechanism for determining the feasibility of economic activity on land in protected areas. Particular attention is paid to the characteristics of the legislation of the Russian Federation and the legislation of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation on protected areas of specially protected natural territories of federal and regional significance and the legal regime of land plots within their borders. Discussion and Conclusion. This study showed that the establishment of protected areas of specially protected natural areas significantly affects the legal regime of land within their borders. Despite the fact that the turnover of these land plots is not limited, they are not withdrawn or redeemed from private property, individually defined characteristics are not significantly changed, but at the same time restrictions are set on the possibility of carrying out economic and other activities, the need for additional coordination with state bodies authorities order to carry out such activities on land. Changes associated with the establishment of protective zones entail a change in the cadastral and market value of land, and as a result, the right of land owners to demand compensation from state authorities for civil and land laws.

The results of the research are presented, its tasks were the analysis and systematization of approaches to the design of buildings and structures for scientifi c research and educational purposes for specially protected natural areas (SPNA). It was revealed that Russian architectural science and design regulations do not cover this architectural-typological direction. Therefore, to search for relevant methods of architectural design, principles and techniques of volumetric-spatial organization, engineering solutions, foreign experience was involved. The study of best practices has shown that the infrastructural development of protected areas is associated with restrictions due to natural-climatic and regulatory factors, and the development of requirements for the consumer properties of objects for these territories is infl uenced by the principles of sustainable development - environmental, social and economic. Examples are given.

Qualitative assessment of the current and perspective nature protection efficiency of specially protected natural areas as forms of the animals, plants biodiversity conservation directly in habitats and unique landscapes for optimization of territorial conservation is necessary. Environmental efficiency can be an assessment parameter of the completeness of the certain specially protected natural areas implementation, caused by its belonging to a category, the status, natural and ecological features of the territory. The technique developed by WWF of Russia in 2012 and published by M.S. Stishov is effective for such research. An advantage of this technique consists in an opportunity to estimate results in the sphere of conservation for some specially protected natural areas and their regional systems as in the current conditions, and in the long term, including at change ecological situations. Wildlife preserves areas of the Volgograd region which make 15 % of total number of natural protected areas of the region acted as the main object of research and occupy 26 % of the total area of protected areas, belong mainly to a faunal area. The contribution of wildlife preserves to the saving of regional biological and landscape diversity is very significant, especially in the absence of natural sanctuaries as a priority form of territorial conservation in the specially protected natural areas system of the Volgograd region. As a result of research, we estimated values of nature protection relevance, significance and effectiveness of wildlife preserves in the Volgograd region. Factors influencing realization of nature protection function by specially protected natural areas are allocated. The result received can be considered as a basis for plan of increase in the effectiveness of each wildlife preserve of the Volgograd region.

В эпоху возрастающего антропогенного воздействия на природу именно особо охраняемые природные территории (ООПТ) стали уникальным явлением, так как они гармонично сочетают в себе природное и историко-культурное наследие и выполняют схожие с музеем функции, что позволяет интерпретировать их как музеи под открытым небом . В данной статье приводятся примеры репрезентации объектов историко-культурного и природного наследия ООПТ Байкальского региона. На основе полевых материалов автора приводится количественная и качественная характеристика музейных институций природоохранных зон, подчеркивается их особая роль в сохранении и популяризации объектов наследия. Кроме того, автор обращает внимание на реализуемые проекты музеефикации, являющейся приоритетным способом актуализации наследия ООПТ, и указывает на положительные и проблемные моменты, касающиеся особенностей сохранения и демонстрации историко-культурного наследия заповедных зон как туристических объектов.In the era of an increasing anthropogenic impact on nature, people seek to preserve pristine ecological systems and create specially protected natural areas. Such areas become a unique phenomenon of our time since they harmoniously combine natural, historical and cultural heritage and perform functions similar with museums, which allows perceiving them as open-air museums. This article discusses the updating of historical and cultural heritage in the museum-type institutions of the protected areas of the Baikal region. The work is interdisciplinary in nature and written at the intersection of related disciplines: museology, geography, history, ecology, and cultural studies. The article provides specific examples of the conservation and representation of movable and immovable objects of historical, cultural and natural heritage located in the protected areas of the Baikal region, namely in Irkutsk Oblast, in the Republic of Buryatia, in Zabaykalsky Krai. Based on field materials, the article provides a quantitative and qualitative description of the museum-type institutions of the specially protected natural areas of the region their special role in preserving, interpreting and popularising not only protected areas, but also objects of historical and cultural heritage located in these territories is shown. In addition, the article presents ongoing museumification projects as a priority way of updating the heritage of the protected areas. For example, the Zapovednoe Podlemorye project (Republic of Buryatia), which aims to convert the scientific base in the Davsha village into an environmental educational museum complex Timeless Shore, is briefly described. The variety of the historical and cultural sites of the protected areas of the Baikal region from the archaeological finds of researchers of the protected areas to the objects of religious significance. The article contains a brief description of some of the most popular historical and cultural sites of the protected natural areas in the region. The article also emphasises that, in order to preserve and update the heritage of the protected areas of the Baikal region, museum-type institutions have been established, namely, museums, visit centres, open-air exhibitions, exhibition complexes, ecological trails with display objects. In the final part of the article, generalisations and conclusions are made both positive points and problems are shown regarding the features of preserving and demonstrating the historical and cultural heritage of protected areas as tourist sites. This article is of interest to museologists, travel agencies, and researchers of environmental protection areas.

Relevance of the work. The modern management of specially protected natural areas of the Tyumen region is based on the preservation of the existing structure. The region belongs to the few regions where reserves do not function. Strategic regional documents for the development of environmental protection do not contain evaluative characteristics, which does not allow judging the achievement of key performance indicators. In the existing technological and socioeconomic conditions, this approach cannot meet public needs, the formation of a favorable investment climate. Objective: on the basis of an assessment of the environmental value, significance and efficiency of the activities carried out in a separate specially protected natural area, develop proposals for optimizing the management of the “Kartashovsky Forest” natural monument. Methodology of the work: assessment of the environmental efficiency of specially protected natural areas and their regional systems WWF, 2012; spatial assessment is based on the geoinformation method; information base: state information systems of state executive authorities of the Russian Federation, the Tyumen region, the regulatory legal framework of the Russian Federation, the Tyumen region. Results of work and their scope. Based on the assessment of the environmental value, significance and effectiveness of the activities carried out, proposals were developed to optimize the management of the natural monument “Kartashovsky Forest”. Applications: environmental protection in the Tyumen region, regional management of investment attractiveness. Conclusions. The efficiency of the environmental protection activities carried out on the territory of the natural monument “Kartashovsky Forest” can be increased by introducing modern technological management solutions. The proposed solutions, integrated in a single information space, can be applied in the regional environmental management.

The article presents the results of the field studies of small mammals carried out from 1997 till 2017 on three specially protected natural areas of the Ishim District of the Tyumen Region (on the example of subzone of the northern forest-steppe). The method of synecology helped to analyze both the species and structural diversity and integral indices of the state of communities. The method of epigenetics aimed to show the stability of development in the populations of dominant species (on the example of Myodes rutilus and Sorex araneus ). The article shows that the level of species diversity and stability of small mammalian communities is directly proportional to the area of specially protected natural areas and reversely proportional to the level of anthropogenic load on the habitat. High anthropogenic load is the reason of neutrals and anthropophiles disappearing from communities of small mammals. The index of dominance of Apodemus agrarius increases as well as the exoanthropic species. The author establishes that the information structure of all studied communities is that of poorly disturbed habitats of the forest-steppe zone of Western Siberia. The information structure of the small mammals community of the most protected areas (1108 hectares), experiencing minimal anthropogenic impact is consistently reproduced in the number of years. The analysis of small mammals community showed a low resource potential of a forest park with an area of 14,5 hectares, located in the center of the city. At the same time the integral indices of the fluctuating asymmetry of the nonmetric features of the skull in the investigated populations of M. rutilus and S. araneus indicate the stability of epigenetic processes and the good state of the land and air environment.
