Geoecological hazards under the conditions of climate changes in the subtropical zone of the Caucasus

The subtropical zone of the Caucasus is one of the most attractive areas for life, which contributes to population growth, and, as a result, additional development of previously undeveloped natural areas. Under the conditions of climate change and increasing anthropogenic pressures, the stability of ecosystems is reduced, and the likelihood of hazardous processes is increasing. The objectives of the work are: a review of the scientific literature on the problems of the development of dangerous geoecological processes in the subtropical zone of the Caucasus under the conditions of climate change, the study of achievements in the field of research, a comparison of various concepts, the definition of the theoretical basis and methods of research, justification of the relevance of the topic, the development of hypotheses and assumptions that will be verified in future research.
