MAPPING OF BIOLOGICAL DIVERSITY

Abstract

The article deals with modern trends in the development of biota mapping at the MSU Departmentof Biogeography. In the recent decade the increasing interest in biodiversity conservation, inventory,monitoring and assessment has contributed to the formation of a special thematic line in the biogeographicmapping. The thematic spectrum of maps and their scale range are permanently expanding. Small-scaleoverview maps show biota as a whole (e.g. «Zones and types of vegetation belts within the mountains ofRussia», «Biomes of Russia»). Regional level of biodiversity assessment is demonstrated by numerousmedium-scale maps, including regional atlases. Landscape-level investigations of biota and ecological-geographic differentiation of biodiversity are displayed on large-scale maps drawn for natural reserves,national parks and model study areas. The biodiversity assessment is supported by creation of databaseson separate groups of organisms for the whole country or particular regions using the remote sensing dataand GIS-technologies. The article discusses the problems of complex biodiversity mapping based on theecological and geographical approach to the characteristic of vegetation and animal population. It highlightsthe role of biota mapping in the educational process at the MSU Department of Biogeography.
