Abstract

The problem of global environmental change is the subject of global ecoinformatics in the context of which information technologies have been developed to ensure the combined use of various data on the past and present state of the Climate-Nature System (CNSS). The creation of a CNSS model based on knowledge and available data, and combined with an adaptive evolutionary concept of geo-information monitoring, which allows for the interconnection of the CNSS model and the global data collection regime, can be considered an important step in global ecoinformatics. As a result, the structure of the CNSS can be optimized to achieve sustainable interaction between nature and human society and to create an international strategy for coordinated use of natural ecosystems.
