Adaptive landscape modernization of forest and hydraulic ameliorative land management in the Volga region

An analysis of adaptive landscape amelioration of lands with a geomorphologic classification of characteristic types of agrolandscapes is given. Control of drought and soil-destroying processes is based on a systems approach, including organizational-economic and agro-, phyto-, forest, and hydraulic amelioration measures. The system of ameliorative procedures takes into account the ecological ameliorative requirements and limitations with the developed criteria and standardized evaluation parameters of soils and waters when realizing the concept of adaptive landscape management.
