Since 2016 in the Peoples? Friendship University of Russia (RUDN-University) is carried out a project on the environmental monitoring of campus. We consider the campus as a social significant territory: currently, the ?population? (staff and students) is over 8,000 but the technogenic pressure is constantly increasing from year to the year because of transport activity. At the moment, the information about acoustic pressure, soil, snow and air pollution has been gathered and processed. It allows to develop the sch...

Environmental monitoring systems in the cities existing in modern cities allow to control the state of natural (technogenic-natural) systems according to their programs. But it is not possible to receive an information for some special locations despite their significance ? this is a case of the RUDN-University campus. For these purposes an initiative group organized a special monitoring project for the campus. One part of these monitoring program is a control of the soil air quality. This is a one of the most rep...

Oil and gas complex is one of the key branches of the Russian economy and at the same time its activity is one of the largest sources of environmental damages. Safety of the environment, occupational safety as well as minimization of the technogenic risk are the sphere of regulation of a new management direction пїЅ HSE-management (from Engl. health, safety and environment). It allows us to coordinate the activities in protection of the environment, in safety of the staff and security of the technical objects. Imp...

Geochemical barriers are the special type of natural systems boundaries. They prevent the penetration of some of substances and are open for the migration of others. For the inorganic substances, especially for the metal ions the barriers are studied enough completely: the models of barriers are developed, the penetration and accumulation kinetic is assessed. But for the organic compounds the role of the geochemical barriers is practically not studied. Especially important are such assessments from the point of vi...
