Abstract

The paper suggests standards of maximum permissible recreational loads specified for republics and regions of the Middle Volga region, characterized by specific forest-growing conditions according to dominant rocks and age groups. The sequence of determining the stages of digression is corrected through the attendance of recreational facilities and the critical number of visitors according to the given model. Based on actual recreational accounting it is possible to model factors to adjust the recreational capacity of the forest area to critical number of visitors. The study of forest areas for mass recreation is based on the method of recreational load evaluation. The use of refined standards of maximum permissible recreational loads will allow considering the peculiarities of recreational forest exploitation for the zone of southern taiga and coniferous-broadleaf forests.

Highlights

  • Forest science in resource management has gained a lot of experience [1]

  • Engineering and environmental surveys for the preparation of design documentation on construction, reconstruction of facilities in Moscow require assessment according to 29 indicators, each of which should receive its own ranking on a four-point scale

  • In order to achieve this goal, the following objectives were set: to clarify the standards of maximum permissible recreational loads for the zone of southern taiga and coniferous-broadleaf forests; to justify the stepby-step principle of determining stages of recreational digression; to model factors in order to adjust the recreational capacity of the forest area to critical number of visitors based on actual recreational accounting

Summary

Introduction

Forest science in resource management has gained a lot of experience [1]. Today the recreational forest resources can be rapidly utilized in the sphere of business since there are already all prerequisites for rapid development of recreational activities. The leading features of landscapes are the contrast of relief forms, mosaic and typological spectrum of forests, their aesthetic qualities, availability of water bodies and agricultural areas With this approach in mind, the comparative assessment of recreational facilities is only possible when calculating a specific indicator of the area occupied by each category, but it will be an approximate value. The third direction in the methodology, according to our results [5, 6] and data of researchers [7], is the most relevant as it allows characterizing the suitability of forest recreational resources, establishing one-time and limit recreational loads on forest objects in places of mass recreation of visitors, assessing the degree of impact of recreational agents on forest territories and detecting the condition of forest stands by stages of recreational digression
