Ecological-economic dimensions of the regional geo-ecological zoning: the example of the Aral Sea region

The crucial challenge of geo-ecological zoning for anthropogenically transformed landscapes with complex interrelationships in the human-nature system can be solved by using the tools of spatial ecological-economic evaluation, implemented by means of geoinformatics. Some issues of application of the proposed approach for destabilized ecosystems of the Southern Aeal Sea basin had been discussed.
