Abstract

The monograph is devoted to the problems of ensuring environmental safety of natural and technical systems of small river basins. The author uses a basin approach to assess the ecological state of a small mountain river, in the basin of which both surface and groundwater are intensively used. The research is based on factual material obtained during field and desk work. The complex ecological and economic characteristics of the basin of the typical small mountain river Alma of the Crimean Peninsula, the classification of the basin lands, the assessment of the degree of stress and tension of the ecological situation, performed by computational methods, are presented. Recommendations for the protection of the natural environment in the river basin are proposed. The author has developed criteria for the ecological safety of the natural and technical system of a small river depending on the current water availability for the mountainous, foothill and plain territories of the basin as the volume of permissible withdrawal of river runoff. Recommendations on improving the management system of the natural and technical system of the river basin aimed at reducing the anthropogenic impact on the catchment area, as well as recommendations and measures to restore an environmentally favorable state are presented. It is intended for specialists in the field of rational use of natural resources, researchers, university teachers, students studying in the areas of 08.03.01, 08.04.01 "Construction", 20.03.02 "Environmental management and water use", as well as a wide range of readers interested in water resources, ecology and geography.
