Dibrova I. Identification of reservoir coastal zone geosystems aimed to nature management optimization (on Kyiv reservoir example)

All components of procedure for identification of reservoir coastal zone geosystems aimed to nature management optimization were substantiated and elaborated. Notion on coastal zone as macro-geotone (landscape macro-boundary) was introduced and modes for its geotone structuring were elaborated. Classified scheme of principal contemporary physical-geographical processes in coastal zone was created. There were substantiated modes for spa-tial structuring of coastal zone by means of original reproduction of its positional-dynamic landscape territorial structure. Classifications of coastal geosystems - landscape belts, strips and wireframe boundaries - was proposed. There were substantiated approaches to geo-ecological-functional regionalization of coastal zone and separation of its taxons - regions, sub-regions, belts, sectors, sections, strips. There where elaborated approaches to determina-tion of regionalization taxons state level by estimation of their stability (phase and parametric) and reliability.Identification procedure was tested as a whole with satisfactory results using created information basis for coastal zone of Kyiv reservoir. It was elaborated recommenda-tions for procedure application. Thesis results can be used in regional schemes and designs of nature management and water-protective zoning for geo-ecological-optimization regionaliza-tion and improvement of coastal zone state.
