| Summary: | Pasmove Pobuzhzhia is a unique geosystem of the Male Polissia nature region which is formed by the thawed waters of the Oka glaciation. Today, this geosystem undergoes negative anthropogenic transformations mainly due to its vicinity to the urban system of Lviv city. Purpose. To carry out a complex applied-geographic analysis of the territory of the Pasmove Pobuzhzhia. Methods. System analysis, synthesis, generalization, comparison, methods of laboratory and instrumental research for determining the quality of groundwater, a cartographic method for creating a map of objects of economic infrastructure and the proposed environmental measures within the Pasmove Pobuzhzhia. Results. The natural conditions, forest cover, the density of the river network, the agricultural land cultivation and the main types of nature management were analyzed. The Pasmove Pobuzhzhia is experiencing a rather powerful negative anthropogenic impact, which is associated, in particular, with a close interconnection with the Lviv urban ecosystem. The western part of the Malekhivs’ke Pasmo, which relates to the location of the city garbage dump, is under special stress. Conclusions. The main problems hindering the sustainable development of the research area were revealed. The priority measures were proposed to improve the geoecological situation within the research area. |
