| Description: | One of the most important directions in the system of measures for creation comfortable conditions for human life in the circumstances of increasing urbanization is adaptation in cognitive and recovery purposes to the most widespread in Belarus ecosystems: forests and mires. This line has an obvious social value, and its full implementation is possible only if the training highly skilled specialists in the field of tourism and nature management is based on scientific principles of using recreational and educational functions of forests and mires. It should be emphasized that this direction in our country, especially in connection with a current trend active of development of foreign tourism is characterized by a very significant economic component and can greatly improve the efficiency of forest production and economy of the country as a whole. In the context of the specialty “Tourism and nature management” the course “Forestry and mire science” can be regarded as a branch of science that aims at a more comprehensive and integrated approach for all forest utilities that primarily affect the improvement of physical and emotional state of people. In developing this course, the milestone was to set the task of the comprehensive study of the natural landscape complexes of forests and mires, characterized by cognitive, aesthetic, recreational and recovery functions. This is only possible if they are in full will acquire knowledge about the causes-and-effect relations of the formation and dynamics of forest and mires of the ecosystems, learn about the regularities and peculiarities of their structure, will examine practical measures for the rational use, reproduction, conservation and protection of all components of forests and mires. The main purpose of the course is professional training of specialists in the field of tourism and natural resources management, particularly in the use of forests and mires of Belarus as a natural tourist attraction. A specialist can apply the acquired knowledge for the scientific organization of measures for involving the population of our country and foreign guests into investigation of forest and mire ecosystems, often representing the reference ecosystems, sometimes unique to Central and Eastern Europe. The main task of the course is theoretical knowledge and practical investigation of basic principles of forestry and mire study in the context of the organization of tourism in forest and mire natural landscape complexes of Belarus. As a result of studying the course a student must know: – organization and structure of forestry in Belarus; – components of the forest; – characteristics of the formations of the main forest-forming species; – patterns of forests interaction with environmental factors of reforestation, formation, growth and development of forest community; – the main factors of formation and development of mire systems; – the habitat of marsh plants; – vegetation and typology of mire biocenoses; – zoning of mires. A student must be able to: – distinguish in nature separate homogeneous areas (taxation units) of stands; – identify and distinguish forest types; – describe forest community; – determine the individual components of forest community and define their characteristics; – identify the main plants of mire communities; – determine the stage of mires development; – select the main types of mires using ecological-topological and floral analysis. |
