Summary

Study of basic ecological connections related to individual-species-population-community. Interaction of biogenic components of nature in these systems: lithosphere-pedosphere-hydrosphere-atmosphere-phytosphere-zoosphere-micro-organosphere including entropicalanthropical influences. Methods of negative effects minimalization. Ecosystems, their principles, trophic structure, energy flows and substance cycles. Future of a man and biosphere.
