How to read this table

Select specific years in the columns to see how the number of facilities changed over different periods. Rows allow you to track the number of reserves, their total area, and the number of parks separately. Comparing these indicators helps understand the development of the country's protected area network over twenty-three years. Each row contains data reflecting the overall status of Russia's reserve fund, grouped by organization type and territorial coverage in hectares
