Description: The Lake Baikal region is a very special and beautiful and in many parts still untouched country. During the last decade the following impacts are however strongly increasing: - national and international tourism; - illegal logging activities due to wood demand from Mongolia, China and Japan; - gold and gas exploration;- also uncontrolled immigration and settlement by Chinese population is a daily political issue. Together with natural risks like fire and Earthquakes, the region needs a well-coordinated ecological monitoring centre. This INTAS project has demonstrated successfully the application of up-to-date publicly available Earth observation and in-situ data and interpretation techniques.
