Abstract

It is proposed to identify the hierarchy of federal districts in terms of ecological opportunities for consolidation of vegetation cover by three classes of soil cover according to the UN classification (grass + shrub + trees) on the territory of Russia by ranking the shares of vegetation cover and human-modified lands, as well as ecological coefficients. The total ecological coefficient is calculated by dividing the share of vegetation by the total share of anthropogenic land. The forest-agricultural coefficient is convenient as the ratio of the forest area to the arable land area. The article contains the identification method revealing stable regularities of rank distributions in the form of trends and wave equations.
