【 摘 要 】

Plant communities of terrestrial ecosystems of the Russian Federation are studied in terms of their ability to reduce the carbon footprint as a result of carbon dioxide sequestration. The classification of typical plant communities and the division of the territory depending on the climatic and regional characteristics is given, with further provision of values of the specific absorption capacity of growing plant communities according to the division presented. To assess the biomass of vegetation, as well as its dynamics of change, an analysis of the remote sensing method was carried out as the most preferred method for determining biomass in real time. The characteristics of currently used remote sensing systems, including IKONOS, Quickbird, Worldview, ZY-3, SPOT, Sentinel, Landsat and MODIS are given. The main indicators used for the indexation assessment of vegetation biomass are listed, with subsequent prediction based on them of the efficiency of carbon dioxide uptake by plant communities.
