Abstract
Studies have shown the importance of supplementing the system of indicators of natural and climatic factors used to regionalize the territory according to the conditions of human activity with indicators that take into account the impact of extreme climatic events. This will allow to consider adverse factors of climate extremes unfavorable for the life of the population and to develop adaptation and mitigation measures. The methodology and map “Zoning of the territory of the Russian Federation according to the natural conditions of life of the population” for the current climate (2001-2010) were refined. We used reanalysis data from the WATCH project with a spatial resolution of 0.5° x 0.5°. The addition of the methodology with the indicators of growing climate extremeness indicators made it possible to take more fully into account the regional peculiarities of natural discomfort, especially for mountainous regions, marshy territories of Western Siberia, and southern Russian regions experiencing desertification. The result of considering extreme events was the complication of the configuration of the discomfort zones boundaries. The resulting map better reflects the landscape features of the territories, including for places with special climatic conditions (mountains, marshes, arid regions) and can be used to assess the living conditions of the population at the level of regions and municipalities.
