Abstract

The article provides a brief description of the geological and tectonic structure and technogenic transformations in the drainage basin of two lakes of the Krasnodar Krai (Malyy Liman and Abrau). They belong to a single natural-technogenic system. On the example of these mountain lakes, the grain-size distribution, elemental (mercury) and isotopic (cesium-137) composition of bottom sediments was studied. The use of a set of methods and technologies, including those developed by the authors, made it possible to determine the parameters of the anthropogenic impact layer in bottom sediments and the chronology of its formation. It is closely related to natural and man-made events in the drainage basin.
