The territory of the North-Western Pryazovie is adjacent to the northern coast of the Sea of Azov. There are 14 rivers flowing through the territory of the North-Western Priazovie with a total length of 944.1 km and a water intake area of 10.613 km2. Territorially, the river network of the Sea of Azov can be divided into two parts: western and eastern, which differ from each other in the structure of the surface, climatic conditions and the nature of the hydrological regime. The rivers of the North-Western Pryazovie can be grouped according to the following characteristics: length, size of the basin, catchment area, nature of the flow, nature of the sources, tendency to dry out.
If in the early stages of economic development the rivers of the North-Western Pryazovie could meet all the needs of people and cope with anthropogenic pressure, now most rivers can no longer withstand these loads and have lost the possibility of environmental self-regulation. The concept of «economic burden» on the natural environment now does not fully correspond to the actual state of the smallest river and its catchment area. A more precise concept of «anthropogenic press», which should be understood not only as the direct economic use of the riverbed, its valley, shores and surrounding areas, but also the side (not infrequently contradictory or negative) consequences of such use. When assessing the current or expected state of the steppe rivers of the North-Western Pryazovie, it is necessary to take into account the following features: these rivers are the main source of food for large rivers, so their preservation is essential to protect water resources from depletion; the watersheds of these rivers house a significant number of people, industrial facilities, agricultural lands, which determines the great economic importance of this category of rivers; due to their small size, these rivers are very sensitive to certain types of economic activity, which is particularly acute in the water regime of the territory. |
