Abstract
Do you need clean water in your city? At last time, the quality of urban water bodies does not correspond to normative requirements. The government could not control state of all urban water bodies. Mainly, this is related with financial costs. In the study, the method of geoenvironmental assessment of water bodies is proposed. It is differ from others by including four stages (study of anthropogenic factors, morphometric study, hydrochemical and hydrobiological analysis). And most importantly, hydrochemical analysis including few main parameters, which were divided by priority. Meanwhile, each of this parameter can be easily analyzed on-site and do not need expensive laboratory equipment. The proposed method of geoenvironmental assessment considered by the example of pond Teploe (Ufa city, Russia).
Highlights
Water bodies within the urban landscape are subject to anthropogenic impact and represent a source of geoenvironmental hazard
In work we propose the following criteria of geoenvironmental hazard: A - chemical pollution as a result of human economic activity; B - thermal pollution of cooling water bodies due to discharge of heated water; C - breakthrough of the soil dam forming the pond and flooding the lower beef
All urban objects are subject of anthropogenic impact
Summary
Water bodies within the urban landscape are subject to anthropogenic impact and represent a source of geoenvironmental hazard. The geoenvironmental hazard of water bodies is considered as a manifestation of anthropogenic impact consequences, creating a threat to the geosystem. The following environmental (including anthropogenic) factors affect water bodies: - chemical pollution caused by discharge of industrial and domestic waste water, unorganized surface runoff, littering of the coastal zone with solid municipal waste, etc.; - recreational load; - thermal pollution due to discharge of heated water from thermal power station. All this factors lead to changes in the environmental situation of water bodies. Others in their work [2] consider low cost environmental monitoring in water bodies
