Abstract

The author raise several significant problems involved in plans to establish resort functions on the Apsheron Peninsula, which together with its major metropolitan areas (Baku and Sumgait), serves as a center for oil refining and petrochemical production based on significant offshore oil drilling in the Caspian Sea. Among these problems are the fact that part of the area of greatest resort/recreational potential (northern coast) is also the area of highest SC2 concentrations (reflecting chemical production in Sumgait), and that another promising location (southern coast) exhibits high levels of NO2 (largely attributed to automobile traffic and power generation in Baku) (translated by Andrew R. Bond).
