About the event:

On April 23, 2025, the scientific center «Smart technologies for sustainable development of the urban environment in the context of global changes» of ATI RUDN University will organize an international scientific seminar «Urban green infrastructure in Arctics». The event will be held in a mixed format on the Yandex Telemost platform. The working language is Russian.

The Arctic zone occupies a significant territory of Russia, many large and economically significant cities are also located in this zone. At the same time, global climate change can have a serious impact on Arctic ecosystems. This determines the need to study urban green infrastructure in Arctic conditions.

About the event:

On April 9, 2025, the scientific center «Smart technologies for sustainable development of the urban environment in the context of global changes» of ATI RUDN University will organize an international scientific seminar «C stocks and fluxes in urban soils across European Russia». The event will be held in a mixed format on the Yandex Telemost platform. The working language is Russian.

The processes associated with carbon flows in soils are an important variable in the global carbon balance. As a result, they make a significant contribution to the sustainable development of the biosphere. The study of these processes is equally complex and important, so special attention is paid to studies of carbon dioxide emissions by soils. 

The seminar will consider studies devoted to carbon dioxide emissions by soils in different regions of Russia.

About the event:

On March 26, 2025, the scientific center «Smart technologies for sustainable development of the urban environment in the context of global changes» of ATI RUDN University will organize an international scientific seminar «Ecosystem services of urban green roofs». The event will be held in a mixed format on the Yandex Telemost platform. The working language is Russian.

“Green” roofs seem to be an interesting object of research and a promising object from the point of view of urban infrastructure development. However, in Russian practice, such a greening mechanism is currently rare and poorly regulated by existing regulatory legal acts.

During the seminar, the results of a study of various aspects of the creation and functioning of green roofs in Russian cities will be considered.
