Ziel


Foreseen Results

At the end of the programme, the elaboration of the actual vegetation map will serve as a fundament for establishing new, modern network of protected areas and rational utilization of vegetation resources on the regional and, presumably, trans-regional levels. The results of the programme will be presented to appropriate parliament commissions and governmental structures of the region counties.
This European projects focus on the problem of conservation and utilization of natural resources with a view to promote a balanced and environmentally sustainable long term development. The basic aim of the project is to show the relationships between vegetation, land use and contribution from the catchments to the quality of water and ecosystems in the Caspian Sea and surroundings.

The programme gathers biologists, botanists, ecologists and GIS specialists from France, Georgia, Germany and Russia to :

( show actual vegetation ;
reveal vegetation structure and modern dynamics of vegetation as the result of natural and anthropogenic impact;
show up relationships between plant communities and their habitat conditions;
obtain information about vegetation potential;
give various information about natural resources;
provide information for better management and use of the natural environment.

Field investigations are implemented in the catchment basins and rivers of the Caspian Sea and surroundings.
