This valuable study of environmental subsystems functioning under various climatic and anthropogenic conditions provides a unique insight into the social context of global changes in biogeochemical cycles and demonstrates current understanding of globalization and sustainable development. Constructs interactive models of natural and anthropogenic processes, considering the correlation between their components. 2  Analyzes regional models to simulate environmental dynamics in the context of globalization and sustainable development.
