The particularly great practical importance of modern physical geography
and, in particular, landscape science, is first of all manifested in the
detection and study of the resource potential of landscapes, as well as in the
optimization of the environment. The resource potential, on the other hand, greatly
depends on the balance of substance and energy exchange in the natural
resources, i.e. the energy of the
landscape. In this case, one of the important things is to study the
functioning of natural-territorial complexes (NTC). Through it, it is possible
and relatively easy to explain, model and, most importantly, predict many
complex processes taking place in NTC, including the role of landscape energy
balance in increasing the productivity and yield of agro-landscapes, which was
the first attempt to research this problem in Georgia.
