The methodology of assessment of digression levels in natural complexes is based on complex component-wise analysis of 15 categorized indicators covering various aspects of natural and anthropogenic genesis. The analysis of natural complexes digression of the Curonian and Vistula spits led to the following differentiation: I stage of digression was found in 55% and 52% accordingly; II stage – in 38% and 27%; III stage – in 6% and 20%; IV and V stage – in about 1% of the areas.
