Abstract
At present, in the desert zone of Russia, nature monuments, national parks and reserves have been established by the efforts of scientists and public ecological organizations. But these protected areas are aimed at the conservation of azonal vegetation (meadows, forests and rare but not desert plants), not zonal deserts. Reserves are needed in order to conserve and restore deserts.
