Integrated environmental assessment of the water quality of small rivers in the region of Sevastopol
The work assessed the water quality of small rivers in the region of Sevastopol (Chernyaya, Kacha and Belbek) according to the method of integrated assessment of the level of contamination of surface waters using hydrochemical parameters, and determined the contribution of the parameters to the man-induced impact on the water body. The qualitative composition of the waters of small rivers was determined by the dynamics of the content of major ions and mineralization, nitrogen compounds of varying degrees of oxidation, phosphates, organic compounds and parameters characterizing the anthropogenic effect on the river system by seasons and the river flow.
