Description
Summary:We substantiate the demand for delineation of the Green Belt of Fennoscandia (GBF) and consider the various approaches to and options of drawing the boundaries. The ecosystem-based (biogeographical) approach is suggested as the one that best suits the environmental and socio-economic goals of GBF development. Using this approach the boundaries of GBF on both the Russian and the Finnish side have been described relying on the hydrographic network, and the map showing the main protected areas (PAs) and the GBF boundaries resulting from the application of the formal and the ecosystem-based approaches is provided.
