Whereas Polesie is one of the regions with a rich natural and cultural heritage. It is undoubtedly important to preserve this heritage in the most natural state and at the same time use its potential for the purposes of sustainable development of the region, where about 2 million people live, as well as for the growth of the economy of the entire country. In this study, we focus on economic aspects in order to assess the current state of tourism in rural areas, as well as tourism based on the sustainable use of natural potential (ecotourism). Among our tasks is a primary assessment of the efficiency and prospects of investments in this sector, determination of its potential for achieving the goals of socio- economic development.

Situation analysis Description of the disaster On 15 March 2018, a meeting of the Emergency Situations Commission of the Republic of Belarus was held to discuss the coming spring floods in Belarus. The meeting was facilitated by the Deputy Prime Minister of the Republic of Belarus. The Belarus Red Cross participated in the meeting, where the leaders of the country asked the BRC to mobilise staff, volunteers and funds to support the affected population. The Emergency Situations Commission stated that the analysis of the hydrometeorological conditions has shown that in 43 districts the territory of 140 villages and towns and 36 gardeners’ partnerships will suffer from flooding. Moreover, some elements of transport infrastructure (70 road segments and 15 bridges) and dwelling houses (including 6,608 garden cottages) can be affected. On 19 March, floods were reported by the Belarusian authorities, local media and Belarus Red Cross (BRC) branches, with 316 houses Hydrological regime of rivers in Belarus, as of 16 March 2018 reported to be flooded in three regions of the country. According to information provided by hydro-meteorological agencies, rapidly-increasing volumes of water are observed across the entire country.

  • Additional Information General Ecological Features There Are 12
    Ramsar Site: 2197 – Pripyatsky National Park Ramsar Information Sheet November 2013 Additional information General ecological features There are 12 species of plants growing in the wetland which are of European conservation importance. High international conservation status is noted for a number of animal species included in the European Red List of the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN): 3 species of fish, 3 species of amphibians, 1 species of reptiles, 14 species of birds and 9 species of mammals, and from them 5 species of birds introduced to the global IUCN Red List (spotted eagle, white-tailed eagle, corncrake, great snipe, aquatic warbler). Wetland ecosystem functions: . keeping, updating and self-purification of water for ecosystems and society; . the natural carbon storage; . the natural regeneration of oxygen; . climate regulation through transpiration; . control of runoff; . support of specific to the region ground water level; . abrasion and erosion control; . the natural deposition of many pollutants (primarily sulfur and products of acid rain); . maintenance of biological diversity; . role of habitats as a refuge for many as rare and economically important species of plants and animals; . protection of soil and water. Physical features of the site Geomorphology. The wetland is located within the valley of river Pripyat, consisting of a floodplain with terraces. Only in the extreme south covers a small area of the north-western outskirts of Lelchitsy glacial water plains. According to the geomorphological zoning of Belarus, most of the area is located in the Luninets alluvial plain, reaching the extreme south of the elevated areas of Lelchitsy glacial water plains. In the north, there is the river Pripyat with a wide floodplain.

    UNDP Project Document Government of Belarus (GOB) United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) Global Environment Facility (GEF) Atlas Award ID: 00042261 Atlas Project ID: 00048429 Catalyzing sustainability of the wetland protected area system in Belarusian Polesie through increased management efficiency and realigned land use practices This project aims to enhance Belarus’ capacity to conserve wetland biodiversity harbored in its network of wetland reserves by enhancing the management efficiency of reserves, while at the same time integrating biodiversity conservation concerns in agricultural, forestry and flood protection activities that occur in and around wetland reserves, to ensure sustainability of conservation efforts. This will be achieved through the demonstration of this approach at four wetland reserves in the Polesie lowland, which is a unique biogeographical area spanning southern Belarus, Northern Ukraine and parts of Poland and Russia. These demonstrations will lead to the development of policies, tools, and methodologies, and these will be institutionalized within the ongoing planning and policy framework of key government bodies. In order to secure biodiversity values of wetland reserves and reduce threats emanating from unsustainable land use practices, the project approach will be twofold: (1) the project will build up management effectiveness and capacities of the reserves, and (2) it will also help realigning land use regulations and practices in and around wetland protected areas towards conservation-oriented and sustainable land use. In doing so, the project will work with national and regional decision-makers, land users and local communities, as well as counterparts in Ukraine. Finally, the project will develop and implement a viable replication strategy. By demonstrating the feasibility of integrating biodiversity considerations and economic activities in Polesie reserves, Government of Belarus will be able to strengthen the overall system, 60-75% of which consists of protected areas facing similar challenges.

  • 18237 Generalization of the Estimated Probabilities of Excess the Mean Annual Runoff of the Pripyat River Basin Within Ukraine
    18237 Generalization of the estimated probabilities of excess the mean annual runoff of the Pripyat River basin within Ukraine K. I. Sokolchuk (Taras Shevchenko National University of Kyiv) SUMMARY Analysis and generalization of the transient ordinates from the average annual runoff to the runoff of the specified exceedance probabilities for the rivers of the Pripyat basin within Ukraine, as one of the indicators of the highest and lowest amount of water for the studied area. For this purpose, the hydrological study was analyzed (series of observations at 28 hydrological gauging section), the empirical and analytical distribution curves (by the moment and highest reliability method) were calculated for 14 values probabilities of excess ranging from 0.01 to 99.9%. Was created the mapps of the spatial distribution of transient ordinates from the norm of the average annual runoff to the runoff of certain probabilities of excess. The work was carried out with the help of basic sets of special tools of several GIS, the main of which was a free cross-platform geoinformation system QGIS. Geoinformatics 2020 11-14 May 2020, Kyiv, Ukraine Introduction. Pripyat is the largest in terms of basin area, length and amount of water of the Dnieper tributary, which flowing through the territory of Ukraine in Volyn, partly in Rivne, Kyiv regions, and territory of Belarus. It flows into the Kiev reservoir. The area of the Pripyat Basin is estimated at 121 thousand km2, the Belarusian part of the basin accounts for 43% of the catchment area, and the Ukrainian one - 57%. Within the study area were identified about 6,000 rivers, of which more than 70% are more than 25 km long and more than 1/7 are rivers up to 100 km long (Obodovskij et al., 2012).

To solve the abovementioned tasks, we have carried out a geoinformation analyses con- cerning the locations of ground water monitoring stations within the largest hydrogeological structure in Ukraine (which is the water exchange basin of the Dnieper River). In the course of the study, a geodatabase has been created that includes digital cartographic layers of the topographic base, hydrogeological zoning under the geological structural, and water exchange principals as well as the surface and groundwater monitoring stations of different aquifers. The obtained results establish the grounds for developing the concept and in- troduce a system of hydrogeological monitoring in Ukraine based on the geo- information approach and integrated water resource management in the river basins.
