Development of research on the application of new information technologies in the environmental monitoring and biogeochemistry

Abstract: The prospects of integrating the achievements of biogeochemistry and infocommunication technologies, in particular the Internet of things, are shown. In particular, a specific development is described, which implementation could drastically increase the predictive potential of today's monitoring systems for global processes. This will lead to the solution of the actual task – a sharp reduction in material and human losses with the increasing number of emergency situations caused by global natural and man-made processes. The creation of a national monitoring center and the experiments conducted on it this year are described. It is assumed that the use of IoT capabilities will allow scientists: to obtain a global experimental range for studying the influence of the natural environment on the dynamic characteristics of natural objects and to study and, possibly, to correct natural and man-made processes, the possibility of direct information interactions among themselves of all objects of nature in the scale of the biosphere. The interdisciplinary research and experiment will be continued.

Keywords: biosphere, technogenesis, biogeochemistry, monitoring of inert and living natural objects, convergent infocommunication environment, internet of things, existing monitoring systems for global processes on the earth, sensors of the internet of things on the basis of natural objects
