ENGINEERING AND ECOLOGICAL ASPECTS OF RECONSTRUCTION OF COASTAL PROTECTION PROJECTS

Abstract

In this article pays attention to the problems of recreational use of sea shores. Two main and to some extent contradictory tasks are considered: on the first side, to better meet the demand of the population for recreation on water bodies and, on the other side, to reduce the negative impact of recreation on coastal and aquatic ecosystems. The complex demonstration of interrelated natural processes determines the nature of material and energy flows in the coastal zone and forms its background ecological state. By engineering means on the coast it is recommended to form such a situation, which would be most favorable to the natural course of natural coastal processes. For this purpose, structures are used: breakwaters, artificial spits, islands - artificial atolls and others. This method of engineering development is very promising for the creation of new coastal protection structures. Analyzed the existing problems of nature management otnovsicheskogo state of natural conditions of the coastal zone of the western coast of the Crimean peninsula, the features of anthropogenic impact and characteristics of the engineering solutions used coastal protection on the coast near the  Beregovoye. Possible constructive solutions of coastal protection to improve the ecological condition of this recreational zone are considered.

Materials and methods: the basis of the presented research is based on traditional methods: analysis, systematization, generalization of published and stock materials, cartographic and mathematical modeling, system analysis, cartographic and computer technologies.

Results: one of the promising recreational areas is the recreational zone of Beregovoye at the mouth of the West Bulganak River. Beregovoye at the mouth of the West Bulganak River, but this area is landslide and abrasion-active. Abrasion processes on the coast lead to the occurrence of landslides on cliffs and pose a threat to vacationers in recreational areas. It is expedient to carry out measures on coastal protection. The implemented project and its schemes are analyzed.

Conclusions: the results of the analysis of the existing problems of nature management regarding the state of natural conditions of the coastal zone of the western coast of the Crimean Peninsula, conducted experimental studies and approaches to the design of biopositive coastal protection structures in the Western recreational zone of Crimea, confirm the need to organize complex studies of natural processes in the coastal zone of the sea, which will allow to design optimal engineering structures to ensure environmental safety on the coastal territories.
