THE LAKES OF THE TURIYSK TERRITORIAL COMMUNITY AS THE CENTRAL OBJECT OF THE PROSPECTIVE REGIONAL LANDSCAPE PARK “TURIYSK LAKES”

Abstract

The purpose of the article is to determine the role and importance of the Turiysk territorial community lakes for the organization of a promising regional landscape park "Turiysk lakes". To achieve the goal, it is necessary to evaluate their hydroecological state and the possibility of recreational use. The methodological basis of work is the development of Ukrainian and foreign scientists in the field of limnology, hydroecology, hydrochemistry, geoecology. Methods used: analysis of hydrometric characteristics of lakes, analysis of the hydrological regime of lakes, ecological assessment of water quality, geoecological assessment of the state lakes water intake, hydroecological evaluation of the current state of lakes, evaluation of eutrophization of lakes by methods of remote sensing. The scientific novelty of the work is that the article substantiates the role and importance of the Turiysk territorial community lakes for the organization promising regional landscape park (RLP) "Turiysk lakes", evaluated their hydroecological state, level of eutrophicity, possibility of recreational use. Conclusions and prospects of research: Ukraine ratified international agreements that determine high requirements for the level of conservation of its territory. To achieve this level, necessary to search for ways to create new and expand the network of existing environmental objects and territories. One of these ways is the creation of regional landscape parks. Organizing them will allow to expand the nature reserve network, develop an eco-network and provide recreational needs of the population. Lakes are a particularly important resource to create a RLP. Their presence significantly increases the attractiveness of the future park for recreants. An example of a RLP formed for the rational use and protection of lakes is the promising RLP "Turiysk lakes".
