Abstract
The article is devoted to the problems of the development of the Arctic as a territory of international cooperation, taking into account the national interests of individual states. The specificity of geopolitical, social, economic, and climatic conditions determines the need to develop conceptual foundations of legal support for the implementation of environmental engineering processes at the development of the Arctic and research on climatic changes of the region. The article analyzes the main strategic and legal documents regulating the implementation activities in relation to the technical and technological support in the question of the development of the Arctic territories and the preservation of climatic stability. The options for creating an adequate system of convergence of national and international legal regulation in the field of determining anthropogenic pollutants and fixing key indicators of the state of the Arctic environment are detailized and characterized. The scientific substantiation of the causes and consequences of climate change in the Arctic ecological systems is given. The advantages of scientific research with the use of modern engineering and digitalization methods, as well as the usage of information and communication technologies for the prompt exchange of environmentally significant information, are revealed. It is noted that thе most topical issues, the national strategies for the development of the Arctic zones of the Russian Federation, Denmark, Norway, and Canada are of a similar nature. They have common approaches to the preservation of vulnerable Arctic ecological systems and the conceptual foundations of legal support for engineering in Arctic scientific research in the field of climate change and conservation.
Highlights
The development of the Arctic region was associated with the production of hydrocarbons and other types of mineral raw materials
The legislation of Canada and the Russian Federation demonstrate the wide application of environmental engineering methods in the development of the Arctic territories and the study of climatic stability
It can be noted that there is no irreconcilable contradiction between the national strategies of the countries of the Arctic region in terms of the use of engineering methods in the protection of the Arctic environment and the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions during the development of the region
Summary
The development of the Arctic region was associated with the production of hydrocarbons and other types of mineral raw materials. The need for ecological monitoring of the state of the environment was a trigger for the development and implementation of the latest science-intensive technologies and methods of modern engineering in Arctic studies of climatic changes [1, 5, 14] These processes required an adequate legislative platform in order to provide legal support for research activities using engineering methods. All types of activities in the Arctic cannot be carried out by states autonomously and without certain agreements of a bilateral or multilateral nature In this regard, the issues of the implementation of international legal norms in the norms of national legislation are very relevant and require further elaboration
