Abstract
The work is devoted to the new concept of integrated monitoring practical application and evaluation it’s results. The theoretical novelty of the concept consists in the joint analysis of diatom complexes from bottom sediments columns and modern phytoplankton complexes. The Ivankovo and Rybinsk reservoirs were chosen as the objects of research. This decision was made due to their advanced age, the power of accumulated deposits and the degree of study. The bottom sediment columns sampling points optimal locations in the Rybinsk and Ivankovo reservoirs was established as a result of the conducted research. During the creation of reservoirs, the lakes on their territory were flooded. The resulting morphometric bottom relief determined those relict lakes locations as zones of stable sedimentation. According to the comprehensive studies results, long-term negative processes caused by anthropogenic load have been confirmed in the investigated reservoirs.
