Information and communication technologies in environmental monitoring of climate change

Abstract

The article is devoted to the problems of the Earth’s climate change as an object of environmental protection and an object of international cooperation. In the implementation of environmental and legal support for climate preservation by the countries of the European Union and the Russian Federation, characteristic features are manifested, which are due to the similarity of specific tasks. The aim of the study is to analyze the prospects for the development of the institute of environmental monitoring associated with the dynamic implementation of the latest information and communication methods and systems in the implementation of mechanisms that prevent and stabilize changes in the Earth’s climate. The article analyzes the main program and legal documents of Denmark, Germany, France and Russia, their variability in determining special approaches to the study of climate change. Attempts to create an adequate system of convergence of national and international legal regulation in order to determine modern legal approaches to the problems of global warming have been studied and discussed in detail. Each of the represented countries has a national strategy for achieving carbon neutrality in the context of creating a circulating model of the modern economy. It is noted that for most of the topical issues, these strategies have common approaches: scientifically based methods of environmental monitoring, the introduction of innovative digital technologies and science-intensive information and communication methods and systems.

Integration of Web Processing Services with Workflow-Based Scientific Applications for Solving Environmental Monitoring Problems

“…Nowadays, developing and applying advanced digital technologies for monitoring ecology and nature management of the environment (e.g., atmospheric air, surface land waters, sea waters, soil and land cover, landscapes, etc.) are critical for the scientific community [1]. In this context, protected natural territories deserve special attention and control due to the importance and uniqueness of their water, land, forest, biological, and other natural resources [2].…”
