Abstract

The solid snow cover sediments were investigated by X-ray electron probe microanalysis (EPMA) with the aim of geochemical monitoring in Lake Baikal Region. The detailed study on the micron level of phase and chemical composition variations of solid sediments from monitoring profile at different degree of anthropogenic stress allows identification of basic pollution sources and evaluation of their influence on the environment of the region. Thus, the data of investigation of snow cover, as indicator towards the change of industrial situation in region allows estimating environment pollution, its evolution and evolution of the background.
