METHODOLOGY OF NATURE RESEARCH IN THE SOUTHERN URALS
Features of complex study of water - deficient territories of the southern Urals with intensive anthropogenic load are revealed. It is proposed to consider the processes taking place in nature, society, production and agricultural nature management, taking into account the availability of water resources. By regulating the availability of water, you can manage their structure and development, ensuring a harmonious evolution of nature with the participation of man and taking into account his interests. The main components of the nature of the steppe zone, their interaction in natural and anthropogenic conditions are considered. The subject of the study is the natural waters, soils and geological environment of the active water exchange zone of the southern Urals, the efficiency of their use and anthropogenic changes in them. An analysis of the efficiency of water resources use in nature management is made.
