Abstract
The landscape units of the Black Sea coast of the North-Western Caucasus have complex and dynamic structures. Mapping of such systems is possible only on a large scale, by superimposing remote sensing data on field research materials. The detailed landscape maps of the marine abrasive coasts of this region were produced for the first time. The landscape structure includes identified hierarchic units: stows, substows, narrow stretched belts, and land facies. A substow was selected as the main unit of analysis for the coastal mapping. The landscape unit map exposes the activity of slope processes and the potential danger areas in the coastal zone.
