Abstract
The effect exerted by the engineering reconstruction activities in the Pripyat River floodplain and changes in the functional state of the melioration systems in the Chernobyl Abandoned Zone on the transformation of runoff characteristics within the period after Chernobyl accident is considered. Multivariate analysis is applied to study the environmental radiological situation resulting from the changes that have taken place. The distribution and migration of radionuclides within ameliorated watersheds are shown to be controlled by the specific features of the current state of melioration systems, cessation of operation, and damming of canals. These factors has affected the area waterlogging; the surface and subsurface water regime, their nutrition, discharge, and secondary pollution.
