| Summary: | The literature sources on the problem of disturbed lands restoration in the Komi Republic (Russia) have been reviewed. Development of empirical methods on biological recultivation of various technogenically disturbed lands from the tundra and north taiga zones was initiated in the end 80-ies of the former century and is in progress nowadays. We have created techniques on grassy ecosystems development at disturbed lands using a series of particular perennial grasses to be sown and cared after according to certain rules. There are some recommendations on oil-polluted lands restoration. Special attention is paid to microbiological purification of lands from residual oil pollution using isolated efficient stems of oil destructing microorganisms. Development of empirical methods on disturbed lands recultivation allowed for a new theoretical basis of disturbed lands restoration, i.e. nature restoration conception, in 1996. Nature restoration is an activity aimed at an accelerated restoration of technogenically disturbed nature ecosystems of the North accounting for specific climatic conditions and traditional local economy. The conception includes a two-stage scheme of practical nature restoration techniques and an improved technique of forest ecosystems restoration. |
