Abstract

The results of multidisciplinary environmental field studies aimed to elucidate the forms of influence of the Tsimlyansk Reservoir onto coastal ecosystems are presented. The ecotone analysis of the ecosystem structure of the reservoir coast is proposed as an approach to the analysis of the collected data. A brief characteristic of a version of a geographic information system based on field and remote-sensing data is given. A relationship is shown to exist between the reservoir level regime according to 10-year data and the transformation of vegetation cover on the coast against the background of minor changes in soils for the 50-year period of reservoir existence.
