This article examines the miserable situation of destruction and Azov Seas Tsymlyansk in the last half century. Shows the
history of the world's first preserved fish prostoranstva and lifestyle of the indigenous population of the Don - the Cossacks, who later
became an example of environmental management. Taking into account the latest scientific achievements in the field of sustainable
development proposes the creation of a national natural park of sturgeon. Given the criticism of the existing inefficient environmental
management and the inadequacy of measures taken for the protection of aquatic ecosystems suggests a solution to ensure the
environmental safety of the Don Cossacks by government as the target of public service.

A key term in ecology is 'ecosystem'. Examples of bad definition of ecosystem: These are two definitions of ecosystem that can be found in Internet: 1. "a system formed by the interaction of a community of organisms with their physical environment" (see: wordnetweb.princeton.edu/perl/webwn) The drawbacks of this definition: another term is used , namely, 'community'; why only physical environment is mentioned? if you mention 'physical', you are to mention 'chemical' one as well... 2. "An ecosystem is a complex set of relationships among the living resources, habitats, and residents of an area. It includes plants, trees, animals, fish, birds, microrganisms, water, soil, and people". http://forest.mtu.edu/kidscorner/ecosystems/definition.html The drawbacks of this definition: another term is used , namely, 'habitats'; why only 'living resources' are mentioned? if you mention 'living resources' , you are to mention non-living as well... ; it is wrong to list 'animals, fish, birds, ' (as 'fish' and 'bird' are part of the general term 'animals'); by the same token, it is wrong to list 'plants, trees,...' (as 'trees' are part of the general term 'plants') . That is why it is important that an attempt was made to give a better definition. An example of such attempt see: http://blog.researchgate.net/masterblog/2220_New_Definition_of_Ecosystem; (in English); http://scipeople.com/publication/99205/; (in Russian); http://scipeople.com/publication/70259/; (in Russian); http://scipeople.com/publication/66938/ (in Russian) Also see the paper: Ostroumov S.A., New definitions of the concepts and terms ecosystem and biogeocenosis. — Doklady Biological Sciences. 2002.

DOI 10.1023/A:1015393924967. http://www.springerlink.com/content/vpg4yu2v3yd6t97b/ In 1935 the term 'ecosystem' was coined by A. Tansley. In the 1940s, another important term, 'biogeocoenosis', was introduced by V. N. Sukachev. Since that time, a lot of new facts have accumulated in ecology. It is necessary to revisit the formulation of the basic concepts and terms in ecology, including the two terms mentioned above. The author proposed some new variants of the definition of the two terms that (1) reflect the modern vision of the basics of ecology; and (2) avoid the vicious circle of using other terms that in turn request their require definitions. The author realizes that the new variants of the terms cannot be ideal and some other variants of the definitions are also possible. Tables: 5 specific features of the proposed definition of ecosystem (Table 1); 8 specific features of the proposed definition of biogeocenosis, and 8 distinctions between the proposed definition and the classical definition by V.N.Sukachev (Table 2).

Ostroumov S.A. Trends in modernizing the fundamental concept of ecosystem: self-repairing, self-cleaning, self-reforming, energy-saving, and labile biomachinery. - Ecological Studies, Hazards, Solutions, 2007, v. 12, p. 24-29. http://scipeople.com/publication/99066/; There are various concepts of ecosystem (e.g., Tansley, 1935; Alimov, 2000; Wetzel, 2001). Some authors consider an ecosystem to be a kind of organism or superorganism. Other authors consider it as a mechanism with a structure formed by a certain pattern of transfer of energy and matter. There are many types of ecosystems and possibly all of the various types of definition and vision are adequate in one or another specific situation. Recently, we published our own definition of an ecosystem that seems to be useful in some situations (Ostroumov, 2002c). The goal of this paper is to re-visit the formulations of some of the fundamental concepts underlying the functional organization of ecosystems. As our experience was mainly with aquatic organisms, we plan to use mainly the empirical data of studies of aquatic ecosystems and organisms. We hope that some part of our analysis will be applicable to both aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems. Our analysis leads to the following vision of an ecosystem that seems to be applicable to some natural and artificial aquatic ecosystems: we propose to see some of the aquatic ecosystems as self-repairing, self-cleaning, self-reshaping, energy-saving, and labile biomachinery. To support and substantiate this view, we locate some evidence from both our studies and the literature (see Table 1 in the article). The following issues were analyzed in the article: 1. Superorganism, mechanism or biomachinery? 2. Rigid structure or labile entity? We consider the aquatic ecosystem as a labile entity because…< see in the full text of the paper> 3.

Ostroumov in the main part of the list below include those that described some innovations in conceptualization of the fundamentals of ecology, – e.g., such as the notion of ecosystem [15]. Previously, in the book ‘Introduction to Biochemical Ecology’, the same author explored another fundamental issue of ecology and made a new classification of interorganismal interactions mediated by chemicals. Also, some of the publications given below formulated a new theory of the biomachinery that provides the useful ecosystem’s service of improving water quality [2, 4, 14, 20, 24, 25, 31]. In another essential series of publications, a set of new biological effects of man-made chemicals were discovered [1, 6, 12, 16, 19, 27; and others]. As a result, some new hazards of chemical pollution to the biosphere were found [1, 2, 12, 17, 19, 21]. Practical recommendations to better protect aquatic biodiversity were published [18], which was a continuation of the book ‘Conservation of Living Nature and Resources: Problems, Trends, Prospects’ (by A. Yablokov, S. Ostroumov, Springer Press). Steps towards new technologies to combat pollution were made [30]. A list of priorities in the further research on the most urgent issues of ecology and environment was developed [23]. The publications [1-32] and other publications authored and coauthored by S.A.O. were commented and supported in the papers and books by many other authors [33-119]. Among them are the scientists who work in N. America (e.g., [50, 61, 100, 103]), Europe (e.g., [58, 68-70, 79, 84 ]; including France, Spain, Greece), Asia (e.g., [72, 81, 88, 101, 117]; including China and India), and other parts of the world.

В экологии большую роль играют фундаментальные понятия экосистемы и биогеоценоза. Эти понятия были сформулированы в 30-40х годах прошлого века. Традиционные определения не свободны от недостатков. Эти определения не учитывают или недостаточно учитывают большую сумму новых фактов, полученных наукой в последние десятилетия. Имеется необходимость модернизации этих определений с учетом новых фактов, установленных наукой. В упомянутых ниже публикациях автор (д.б.н. С.А.Oстроумов, МГУ им. М.В.Ломоносова) предложил новые, модернизированные определения понятий «экосистема» и «биогеоценоз». Новые определения имеют конкретные отличия от традиционных определений и позволяют включить в определения и трактовку этих важных понятий последние достижения экологической и биологической науки.

[A new fundamental concept is proposed of aquatic ecosystem as a bioreactor that carries out the function of water purification in natural water bodies and streams. The ecosystem as a bioreactor has the following characteristic attributes: (1) it is a large-scale (large-volume) bioreactor; (2) it is a diversified (in terms of the number of taxa and the scope of functional activities) bioreactor; (3) it possesses a broad range of biocatalytic (chemical-transforming and degrading) capabilities. New experimental data on xenobiotics - induced inhibition of the water filtration performed by the bivalve molluscs Unio tumidus, U. pictorum, M. galloprovincialis and inhibition of feeding by Limnaea stagnalis emphasized the potential ecological hazard from sublethal concentrations of pollutants (including those exemplified by synthetic surfactants and detergents). http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/15648211; PMID: 15648211 [PubMed - indexed for MEDLINE]; http://scipeople.com/uploads/materials/4389/4Rivista.Biologia97p39Aquatic..Bioreactor.RTF; https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Sergei_Ostroumov/blog/407_New_concept_of_ecosystem; https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Sergei_Ostroumov/blog/410_New_Concept_of_Ecosystem; 26.

Some basic elements of a new theory for the biological mechanism for water self-purification are presented. Aquatic organisms (hydrobionts) are actively involved in various processes leading to water purification. Not only microorganisms (bacteria, cyanobacteria and fungi), but also algae, plants, invertebrates, and other groups of organisms are involved, which is discussed and analyzed in the paper. Results of the author's experiments that study the effects of various pollutants on aquatic organisms (freshwater and marine bivalves) are given. The theory is an innovative basis for developing ecological technologies to clean water and to upgrade its quality by using organisms and ecosystems [http://scindeks.nb.rs/article.aspx?artid=0354-32850750015O]; 30.

Abstract: A new set of ecological generalizations formulated in this paper represent, in a systematized form, the basic elements of the qualitative theory of biotic control of water quality and water self-purification in freshwater and marine ecosystems. The theory contributes to a better understanding of the issues of stability and regulation in the biosphere. The theory is supported by the results of the author’s experimental studies of the effects exerted by surfactants, detergents and other pollutants on aquatic organisms. http://sites.google.com/site/9enecologica16p25theory/; 32.

Olenin (Eds.), Springer, Dordrecht, 2004. p. 147-164. [Proceedings of the Advanced Research Workshop on the Comparative Roles of Suspension-Feeders in Ecosystems, Nida, Lithuania 4–9 October 2003. Suspension-feeders are found in both pelagic and benthic systems. They function as an important part of an ecosystem's biomachinery that maintains water quality and purification potential in aquatic systems. They remove suspended matter and excrete faeces, pseudofaeces and dissolved inorganic materials that contribute to nutrient cycling between the water column and the benthic habitats. Suspension-feeders are a key part of many natural aquatic remediation systems and they can decrease some negative anthropogenic impacts. Recent author’s experiments are reported that demonstrate new effects of pollutants on the filtration rates of suspension-feeders.

New concepts: polyfunctional role of suspension-feeders regulating ecosystem processes (p.155); "suspension-feeders have a potential to contribute to creating habitat heterogeneity (in terms of patchiness of concentrations of suspended matter in water) (p.157); "ecological taxation: suspension-feeders pay ecological tax to the community (ecosystem)" (p.157)].

The concise results and shortlist of some well-cited publications on ecology and environment - in English, the full texts or abstracts available online free (updated 2010, Feb 11) The publications by S.A. Ostroumov in the main part of the list below include those that described some innovations in conceptualization of the fundamentals of ecology, – such as the notion of ecosystem [15]. Previously, in the book ‘Introduction to Biochemical Ecology’, the same author explored another fundamental issue of ecology and made a new classification of interorganismal interactions mediated by chemicals. Also, some of the publications given below formulated a new theory of the biomachinery that provides the useful ecosystem’s service of improving water quality [2, 4, 14, 20, 24, 25, 31]. In another essential series of publications, a set of new biological effects of man-made chemicals were discovered [1, 6, 12, 16, 19, 27; and others]. As a result, some new hazards of chemical pollution to the biosphere were found [1, 2, 12, 17, 19, 21]. Practical recommendations to better protect aquatic biodiversity were published [18], which was a continuation of the book ‘Conservation of Living Nature and Resources: Problems, Trends, Prospects’ (by A.

Aquatic ecosystem as a bioreactor: water purification and some other functions. - Rivista di Biologia / Biology Forum, 2004, 97 (1): 67-78. Abstracts in Eng. and Italian. [A new fundamental concept is proposed of aquatic ecosystem as a bioreactor that carries out the function of water purification in natural water bodies and streams. The ecosystem as a bioreactor has the following characteristic attributes: (1) it is a large-scale (large-volume) bioreactor; (2) it is a diversified (in terms of the number of taxa and the scope of functional activities) bioreactor; (3) it possesses a broad range of biocatalytic (chemical-transforming and degrading) capabilities. New experimental data on xenobiotics - induced inhibition of the water filtration performed by the bivalve molluscs Unio tumidus, U. pictorum, M. galloprovincialis and inhibition of feeding by Limnaea stagnalis emphasized the potential ecological hazard from sublethal concentrations of pollutants (including those exemplified by synthetic surfactants and detergents). http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/15648211; PMID: 15648211 [PubMed - indexed for MEDLINE]; http://scipeople.com/uploads/materials/4389/4Rivista.Biologia97p39Aquatic..Bioreactor.RTF; https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Sergei_Ostroumov/blog/407_New_concept_of_ecosystem; https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Sergei_Ostroumov/blog/410_New_Concept_of_Ecosystem; 26.

Abstract: A new set of ecological generalizations formulated in this paper represent, in a systematized form, the basic elements of the qualitative theory of biotic control of water quality and water self-purification in freshwater and marine ecosystems. The theory contributes to a better understanding of the issues of stability and regulation in the biosphere. The theory is supported by the results of the author’s experimental studies of the effects exerted by surfactants, detergents and other pollutants on aquatic organisms. http://sites.google.com/site/9enecologica16p25theory/; 32.

Olenin (Eds.), Springer, Dordrecht, 2004. p. 147-164. [Proceedings of the Advanced Research Workshop on the Comparative Roles of Suspension-Feeders in Ecosystems, Nida, Lithuania 4–9 October 2003. Suspension-feeders are found in both pelagic and benthic systems. They function as an important part of an ecosystem's biomachinery that maintains water quality and purification potential in aquatic systems. They remove suspended matter and excrete faeces, pseudofaeces and dissolved inorganic materials that contribute to nutrient cycling between the water column and the benthic habitats. Suspension-feeders are a key part of many natural aquatic remediation systems and they can decrease some negative anthropogenic impacts. Recent author’s experiments are reported that demonstrate new effects of pollutants on the filtration rates of suspension-feeders.
