ANALYSIS AND MAPPING OF SENSITIVITY AND ENVIRONMENTAL SUSTAINABILITY OF GEOSYSTEMS FOR THE INFORMATION SUPPORT GEOGRAPHIC PROJECTION ON THE EXAMPLE OF THE LAKE BAIKAL BASIN

Abstract

The contribution is completed in the laboratory of cartography, geoinformatics and remote sensing of the Sochava Institute of Geography (Irkutsk) in the framework of the electronic Ecological atlas of the Lake Baikal Basin. We solve the fundamental scientific problem concerning the creation of base maps of the natural environment for the territories of two sovereign states - Russia and Mongolia to support a development strategy for a large region and predicting its environmental impacts on the basis of representations about the functioning and dynamics of geosystems of Siberian scientific school of geographers. A specialized classification of geosystems is developed, which reflects both morphotypical and functional and dynamic features, allowing to assess their sensitivity and ecological sustainability as well as to support the transition from the inventory phase of the study to forecast the future state of geosystems. The cartographic analysis of geosystems structure on the geoms level is carried out and electronic maps are created: a basemap "Geosystems of the Lake Baikal basin" and its derivative map "Sensitivity of the geosystems of the Lake Baikal basin", 1: 5 000 000. They can provide information support for addressing environmental problems of a large region.
