Summary: It is evident that the impact of a big city on the nature is not simple. A small town doesn't exercise radical influence on the course of natural processes, but the big city "suppress" environment profoundly. Revealing critical thresholds of this urban process is an important, but still insufficiently solved problem of scientific investigation. Corresponding data are obtained from sporadic observations and measurements, giving possibility only to describe certain phenomena and get conclusions of suppositional nature and limited importance. Nevertheless, this problem should be solved with due accord to those processes which are caused, first, by peculiar features of urban functional structure and, second, by their regional variations. This book discusses all these issues deeply.

It is evident that the impact of a big city on the nature is not simple. A small town doesn't exercise radical influence on the course of natural processes, but the big city "suppress" environment profoundly. Revealing critical thresholds of this urban process is an
important, but still insufficiently solved problem of scientific investigation. Corresponding data are obtained from sporadic
observations and measurements, giving possibility only to describe certain phenomena and get conclusions of suppositional nature and limited importance. Nevertheless, this problem should be solved with due accord to those processes which are caused, first, by peculiar features of urban functional structure and, second, by their regional variations. This book discusses all these issues deeply.
