Abstract: | Experience in predicting the state of alpine ecosystems on the basis of empirical-statistical simulation is described using
the example of the Central Caucasus. Two types of analytical and cartographic prognostic models, chorometric and chronometric,
are presented. They are used to obtain probabilistic estimates of alpine meadows and forests in the vicinity of Mount Elbrus
in view of the forthcoming global climate warming for the period until the year 2100 (by means of GISS Model E for climate
prediction). |
