Abstract

The assessment of the transformation level in the Buniv River basin (Ukraine) transformation was performed. Substantiates the need to improve the monitoring system within the river basin, as the main tool for assessing and predicting changes in the aquatic ecosystem and managing the processes of its anthropogenic. The research methods included on-site investigations, laboratory and analytical studies, data processing using GIS technologies. A topographic survey of the Buniv River’s floodplain within the village of Rokytne town was performed. The on-site investigations included field surveys and water sampling at 4 control sites on the Buniv River for 13 quality indicators. The analysis of the obtained cartographic models indicates a significant anthropogenic transformation of the natural landscapes. A significant part of the watercourses of the Buniv River basin was once directed and transformed into main canals of the meliorative systems. This causes the formation more dangerous flood flow.
