Environmental safety in the coastal zone of the Kerch peninsular

The region of the Kerch Peninsula will always play a significant role in the economy of the Crimea and Ukraine owing to the existence of important raw materials resources (oil, gas, iron ores, therapeutic mud, water), natural and historical sites, favorable physiographic conditions (climate, transport ways) in its territory. Today the eastern part of the Crimea is least developed as regards the prospects for effective development of a recreational and tourist branch. A scientific research is directed to determination and evaluation of an extent of the negative impact of major factors of ecological hazards on the environment development, recommendations for improvement of environmental policy quality in the region.

The factors of ecological safety have been first determined, characterized and classified, methods of ecological certification of hazardous technogenic objects on the coast and sea shelf have been developed, standard ecological certificates have been created; methods of ecological audit of sea coastal ecosystems have been improved; geoenvironmental maps of the coast and classification of environmental safety factors by a degree of environmental hazard have been developed.

The standard ecological certificates of technogenic objects on the coast and in the sea developed and recommended for the subjects of economic activity enable to increase efficiency and quality of environmental control, to enhance environmental safety, to aim environmental policy in the region at preservation of the natural environment, development and improvement of local and regional programs of environmentally balanced development.

Target readers are specialists of nature protection and administrative executive authorities and local government, scientists, post-graduate students, students of higher educational institutions for the use when studying environmental problems of the Black Sea and the coast of the Kerch Peninsula.
