Evaluation of the ecological and geochemical condition of geosystems of subregions of Northern Bukovyna.
Короткий опис(реферат)
The study assessed the ecological and geochemical state of geosystems of the
subregions of Northern Bukovyna: Prut-Dniester, Prut-Siret, and Bukovynian Carpathians. In the
Prut-Dniester interfluve, the ecological condition of rural geosystems can be assessed as
moderately favorable and low-favorable. Bukovynian Subcarpathians, in the middle part of
Northern Bukovyna, are distinguished by favorable ecological conditions for both human life and
rural tourism. The predominance of the leaching soil water regime of geosystems (sufficient
rainfall) and notable wooded areas contributed to the sanitation of these landscapes from various
artificial pollutions. The Carpathian subregion is the most distinct and unusual in terms of
geoecological evaluation. There is a more complex set of natural conditions (vertical
differentiation of landscape complexes). Fluvial terrace landscape complexes (with a chain or
mosaic-scattered settlements) have highly favorable ecological and geochemical conditions. This
subregion is the most optimal regarding the recreational and tourist trend. Among the
geoecological factors of its development, it is worth noting the high quality of groundwater
(drinking water), which, despite the excess precipitation, is sufficiently saturated with biologically
essential macro- and micronutrients and have mostly medium hardness (Ca + Mg) and
mineralization.
