Abstract:
The analysis of the latter-day investigations in the field of shelf ecology was fulfilled. It helped systematizing the methodological foundations of the ecologic-geomorphologic approach to the expert assessment of the recent sea-land strip state for the conditions of the predominance of the mechanical and chemical forms of the natural-technogenic forms of influence. The system of principles of the conceptual model of the distinguishing (zoning) the problem areas technology is explicated within the framework of the approach. The technology suggested is based on the assessment experience of the ecologic-geomorphologic, ecologic-geochemical and sanitary-chemical state of the abiotic (in general) component of the geo(eco)systems of the south-eastern Baltic and deltaic watercourses of Volga. The technological developments may serve as one of the optimization basements of the strategy and tactic of littoral zone economy.
