About the event:

On February 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 «Hydrological modelling in soil constructions of Zaryadye park». The event will be held in a mixed format on the Microsoft Teams platform. The working language is Russian.

Zaryadye Park, which opened in Moscow in 2017, is a unique project in the field of landscape design, combining many modern technologies for creating and maintaining urban green infrastructure. The park contains areas that reproduce ecosystems of different climatic zones of Russia. All this makes Zaryadye an interesting object for research from the point of view of physical and biological processes occurring in the soil.

During the seminar, the results of research conducted on the territory of Zaryadye Park in the fields of soil science, hydrology and soil biology will be presented and discussed.

The event will be held in a mixed format on the Microsoft Teams platform. The working language is Russian.

Urban green infrastructure is one of the most important elements of urban infrastructure, which affects the well-being of the environment in the city, the psychological and physiological health of citizens, public opinion and much more. At the same time, urban green infrastructure is extremely complex and multifaceted, since its functioning and maintenance affects a large number of actors: from individual city residents to large businesses and city authorities.

Moreover, in the context of global changes, urban green infrastructure can become an important factor in the adaptation of cities to various changes and new challenges facing society and managers.

 All this makes urban green infrastructure an important and complex object of study from the point of view of various sciences: ecology, biology, geography, sociology, urban studies and many others. The seminar will consider several views on the study of urban green infrastructure, modern challenges and prospects in this direction.

About the event:

On November 27, 2024 the Research center «Smart technologies for sustainable development of the urban environment in the global change» Agrarian and Technological Institute RUDN University organizes an international scientific seminar «ESG consulting: relevance of the agenda, analytics and prospects». The event will be held on the Microsoft Teams platform. The working language is Russian.

ESG (E – environment, ecology; S – social, social policy; G – governance, corporate governance) is a set of principles for doing business that correspond to the general philosophy of sustainable development. Speakers will present an overview of the transformation of the sustainable development concept into the concept of ESG and social responsibility, problems and prospects for disclosing non-financial reporting, taking into account changes in international requirements.

In 2018, the president signed a decree “On the national goals and strategic objectives of the development of the Russian Federation for the period until 2024.” In 2021, the government issued a decree “On approval of the goals and main directions of sustainable (including green) development of the Russian Federation” and a decree “On approval of criteria for sustainable (including green) development projects in Russia and requirements for the verification system of financing instruments for sustainable development in the Russian Federation.”” Thus, these three letters E, S and G largely determine the development vector of companies, cities and regions. How exactly this happens in practice will be discussed at the seminar.

About the event:

On November 13, 2024 the Research center «Smart technologies for sustainable development of the urban environment in the global change» Agrarian and Technological Institute RUDN University organizes an international scientific seminar «Microbial properties and ecological functions of mountain soil». The event will be held on the Microsoft Teams platform and off-line in Agrarian and Technological Institute RUDN. The working language is Russian.

The seminar will discuss the consequences of global warming on soil processes related to C, N, P cycling in mountain ecosystems. As a result of climate warming, there is a shift from the mountain forest belt to subalpine meadows, which affects the structure of their plant community and soil processes. Soil microorganisms play a key role in these processes, participating in the decomposition of organic matter and the cycling of biophilic elements. The seminar will consider possible scenarios for changes in the ecological C:N:P stoichiometry in the plant biomass, in the soil pool, in the microbial biomass, and their relationship with the functioning of the soil microbial community under tree line shift for reserved and grazed mountain slopes.

 

Event program:

17.30 – 18.30

«C:N:P stoichiometry and microbial activity of soils at the tree line shift to subalpine grasslands of reserved and grazed mountain slopes in the Northwest Caucasus»

About the event:

On October 30, 2024 the Research center «Smart technologies for sustainable development of the urban environment in the global change» Agrarian and Technological Institute RUDN University organizes an international scientific seminar «Ecosystem services of urban GI in arid and semi-arid regions». The event will be held on the Yandex Telemost platform and off-line in Agrarian and Technological Institute RUDN. The working language is Russian.

In urban environments, anthropogenic impact significantly influences the components of urban ecosystems, particularly the soil cover. This seminar is aimed at presenting information on the evolution pathways of urban soils under the influence of urbopedogenesis in the southern European part of Russia.

The presentations will cover a wide range of topics, including the morphological transformation processes of both natural and anthropogenically altered soils, as well as the accumulation of organic and inorganic carbon forms within the soil profile. Issues related to the influence of plant formations on the changes in the morphological and chemical properties of the region’s zonal soils— Calcic Chernozems —will also be addressed.

Additionally, the seminar will present information on the specifics of pollutant migration in the “soil-plant” system under the influence of urbopedogenesis, highlighting the importance of urban green infrastructure in mitigating the negative effects of urban ecosystem degradation.

About the event:

On June 4, 2024 the Research center «Smart technologies for sustainable development of the urban environment in the global change» Agrarian and Technological Institute RUDN University organized an international scientific seminar «Urban soils – a challenge for geophysics: geophysical study on soils at the RUDN campus». The event was held on the Microsoft Teams platform and off-line in Agrarian and Technological Institute RUDN. The working language was Russian.

Geophysical methods of studying soils are used to isolate soil horizons, trace them in space, and in monitoring mode allow us to conclude about the distribution of moisture in the soil. However, urban soils have a number of features that complicate the interpretation of geophysics data. These are the weak contrast of soil horizons in terms of physical properties, and specific man-made soils and the presence of engineering communications.

In 2023-2024, monitoring studies using electrotomography, georadiolocation and induction electrical profiling were conducted at the RUDN campus. Geophysics was accompanied by drilling wells with sampling for moisture analysis and granulometry. The results we have obtained allow us to carefully assume what is complicated and how the urban lawn functions, but at the same time they raise many questions.

The event will be held on the Yandex Telemost platform and off-line in Agrarian and Technological Institute RUDN. The working language is Russian.

Urban water-green infrastructure is a new but actively developing direction in ecology and urban planning around the World. Despite the popularity of the technology in the USA, Europe and China, the introduction of water-green technologies in Russia began in the last decade. One of the main limitations for the widespread dissemination of water-green solutions in Russian cities is the need to adapt technologies taking into account the climatic and regulatory conditions for the design, creation and maintenance of urban green infrastructure, as well as the lack of convincing evidence of their effectiveness in domestic practice.
