The modern approach to the spatial organization of territorial nature protection is designed to ensure the achievement of a system-ecological balance within the framework of the ecological foundations of optimizing nature management and the concept of sustainable ecological and economic development. Networks of specially protected natural areas (SPNA) at the regional level perform the task of preserving mainly zonal ecosystems, combining the capabilities of various categories of protected territories.
Volgograd region is located in the South-East of the European part of Russia. The region belongs to intensively developed regions with historically developed agricultural specialization. It is characterized by the high landscape and biological diversity with a low share of natural zonal landscapes in the structure. The main value remains the areas of the steppes in an unchanged or slightly modified state. Therefore, all aspects of the organization and effective functioning of specially protected natural territories, their role in the formation of the regional network and the ecological framework of the territory are very relevant.
Territorial nature protection began its development in the Volgograd region in the 80s of the 20th century. As of the beginning of 2020, there are 52 protected areas at the regional level and 1 local level, the list of potential protected areas includes about 25 units. Protected areas of the region are represented by such categories as natural parks, wildlife preserves, natural monuments, protected landscapes and territories that are of special value for the conservation of animals and plants listed in the red book of the Volgograd region.
The research considered the main stages of forming the network of specially protected natural territories in the Volgograd region and the factors that influenced its formation. Special attention is paid to the characteristics of the current state and prospects for the development of the network of protected areas, taking into account the functional features of certain categories within the status established by the Federal legislation of the Russian Federation. The research also examines the contribution of certain categories of protected areas and their spatial combinations to ensuring effective protection of landscape and biological diversity, the role in forming the ecological framework of the territory, and maintaining the environmental stability of zonal ecosystems.
