RESULTS OF IDENTIFICATION OF PLOTS WITH IRRATIONAL NATURE MANAGEMENT IN THE COASTAL ZONE OF THE SEA OF AZOV

According to the results of the Azov complex expedition in 2019, a number of areas with the manifestation of irrational nature management were identified within the Russian sector of the coastal zone of the Sea of Azov. Within the investigated coastal sections 40 unknown and previously recorded solid waste deposits of different area were found, significant areas of land plowed up in dangerous proximity to coastal cliffs in areas with active manifestation of abrasion and landslide processes within the Republic of Crimea (Lenino District), Krasnodar Region (Temryuk, Primorsko-Akhtarsk, Yeysk, Shcherbinovskiy districts) and Rostov Region (Azov, Neklinovskiy districts). The analysis of the spatial location of territories with the marked signs of irrational nature management has been carried out. Also, During the coastal monitoring various facts of negative anthropogenic impact on the environment were revealed: development within the boundaries of coastal protective zones, the consequences of fires, operating and closed for burial cemeteries, exposed to hazardous coastal processes, signs of mining in the coastal zone etc.
