Forecasting possible changes in zonal vegetation boundaries in European Russia and Western Siberia in connection with global warming

This paper discusses the relationships of zonal vegetation boundaries with some climatic indicators. Possible changes in subzonal vegetation boundaries in the territory of European Russia and Western Siberia are forecasted within the framework of one of the global warming scenarios. The revealed regularities make it possible to suggest a mathematical cartographic model of vegetation zonality for the 2046–2065 period.
