The scarcity of natural resources has become a serious
problem in terms of security in the world. This article
examines the role of the limited resources in conflicts in
Africa. The main source of conflict is the issue of
control of resources and the right to a healthy
environment. Here we consider the case of the regional
conflicts in the African context. A large number of
major rivers in Africa also have been the cause of
conflicts between the riparian countries. However, most
of these problems have been successfully solved, and in
many cases, this process led to the formation of regional
blocs for economic and diplomatic cooperation in the
region. In addition to inter-State disputes, there are also
internal disputes among regions or states within the
same country for the control of resources. However, in
some cases these regions have developed wellcoordinated
approaches to resolving the disputes: either
by judicial apportionment, congressional action or based
on negotiated compacts. In general, we believe that a
careful application of equitable resource-sharing formula
to volatile areas is a basic condition for peace and
stability in Africa
Within the Terek-Sunzha gas area we have identified patterns, most of which are divided into blocks in some cases with large amplitude shear. The processes of destruction of structures took place during the period of their formation and the subsequent time and due to the strong and catastrophic earthquakes. The article provides a statistical analysis of strong earthquakes in this region during the period 1688-2008 and the regularities of their existence. It is shown that the maximum number of earthquakes took place during the period of the depths of 5-12 km and the distribution of the number of strong earthquakes at levels subject to certain matematical patterns. With regard to the analysis of the distribution of earthquakes in a single year in the whole of the globe, we obtained the correlation of the displacement of rocks from levels of existence of earthquakes and possible displacement of rocks to very catastrophic earthquakes. We have also given the forecast frequency and the number of strong catastrophic earthquakes for the period from the beginning of the formation of structures up to the present time. We assessed maximum displacements of rock blocks during this time, which is in good agreement with the actual values of the displacement of rock blocks
The article presents the weighting function for the points within the geodetic network. The obtained system of equations is solved by the method of least squares. In the result of solving the system of equations we found the original formula for calculation of reverse weights of any point in the geodetic network
The article examines an important matter of topical
problems of the thickening of planned justification
from the starting points, for which we have known or
predetermined locations using satellite-surveying instruments.
The authors present a method of solving the
problem of two geodetic reference points using two
sources (the approach of the Hansen) by determining
the true adjoining corners and converting the problem
to the solution of direct angular notches. We have also
given a numerical example of the solution and the
estimated accuracy of the obtained coordinates of the
points P and Q using found valid adjoining corners
and edge lengths of the resulting triangles
In the given article, we explore the territory
organization of tourism in the Krasnodar region.
General route models of trips are considered. M.
Clauson’s theory about dependence demand of
distance of a trip is explored. Also, the efficiency of
testing this theory in modern conditions was taken up.
Theoretical and practical aspects of clusters in a
tourist-recreational complex, such as substance of
cluster approach in tourism, ways of determining the
geographic boundaries of clusters and other details are
investigated. The territory of the Krasnodar region has
grate tourist potential, but the flow of tourists is very
unevenly distributed. This is the reason why a new one
clustering of the Black Sea cost in the region is
offered. It means care of the administrative boundaries
of municipalities and zoning on the basis of
accessibility of attractive excursion objects in respect
to distance and influence of environment. This way of
management of coastal zones in the Krasnodar region
helps to govern all resources more rationally. It also
provides confident development of tourism
The article focuses on the unique nature of the CBD
and the North Caucasus, and to existing problems. It
was noted that many areas of protected and
recreational areas are eroded and disturbed by human
activities and environmental tourism in the regions is
not developed. We have made a justification for the
establishment of eco-tourism, the key objectives and
tasks. On the example of Kabardino-Balkaria, there
was set scientific and technological rationale of the
organization of the centers of ecological tourism in the
regions. The article shows a comparative analysis
about the developing ecological tourism in Europe as
an active form of recreation. Unlike European
counterparts, in our project we have a strong emphasis
on the popularization and implementation of
environmental technologies for the protection and
improvement of springs, hiking trails and recreation
areas for tourists. You can find descriptions of the
most interesting and amazing natural monuments, and
recreation areas divided in ecological routes and areas
of the CBD. The mountain zones of the CBD are
mainly located in four valleys: in the Baksan, Cherek,
Chehem and Malka, where these amazing natural
monuments and landscapes are. The authors
conducted a field research work for the study of the
unique natural sites in all environmental routes and
areas of the CBD. In conclusion, it is noted that in our
region there is great potential for organization of
ecological tourism and all these beautiful natural
conditions are the basis for this. The development of
ecological tourism will further attract more than 10
thousand tourists who are interested in nature in
Kabardino-Balkaria and environmental issues in the
region
