International Centre on Biosphere research in the Ubs-Nuur Hollow is celebrating today its 10th anniversary. The scientific conference devoted to it is taking place both in Tuva (Kyzyl) and in Mongolia (Kovd). The Ubs-Nuur center, founded by Professor Victor Bugrovski, has paved way to a principally new school in ecology "Functional Ecology" which makes it possible to observe the changes in ecosystems in its dynamics. The Ubs-Nuur Hollow is an ideal place for such observations. It's a kind of the Earth model combining on the relatively small territory practically all natural zones: from a tundra to a desert.
