Assessment of environmental values, significance and efficiency of the specially protected natural area called “Kartashovsky forest” in the Tyumen region

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.
