title: Assessment of comfort potential and prospects for environmental development of cities in steppe Russia using the index method
abstract: Abstract The paper describes the results of comfort potential assessment and prospects for development of urbanized geosystems in steppe Russia on the basis of constructed geoinformation index assessing potential for development of environmental comfort (CDPI).
