Laboratory of Water Resources and Water Use

The Laboratory of Water Resources and Water Use was established in December 2015. At present, 12 employees are on its staff, including 1 Doctor of Sciences, 5 researchers with PhD and 4 postgraduate students (specialty: "Geoecology"). The cartographic group of the Laboratory provides the geoinformation and cartographic support of scientific projects. The team is characterized by scientific mobility and good coherence in work. Laboratory employees study the problems of water resources and peculiarities of water use in Siberian regions related with estimation of current and prospective water availability of territories, analysis and forecast of anthropogenic loads on water bodies and their catchment basins, development of scientific bases for spatial organization of environmental protection systems, study of aquatic-environmental situations using remote sensing methods, geoinformation and cartographic modeling of regional water resources, geoinformation and cartographic modeling of water resources and water use in Siberia.

Contract-based studies are carried out to estimate probabilistic damages to the population and economic objects from the negative impact of natural waters, to perform the environmental expertise of water management projects, to develop practical recommendations for rehabilitation and restoration of water bodies. Much attention is paid to mapping the studied territories. In recent years, several socially significant cartographic products were created. Among them are the medical and geographical Atlas of Altai Krai and a series of tourist maps of Altai. Specialists of the laboratory participated in the development of the Territorial Waste Management Scheme of Altai Krai. The main scientific results also include the new elements developed and put into practice within the regional ecological framework.
