Abstract:
Some ecological problems of Baikal coastal zone are observed. These problems are related to anthropogenic effects on lake ecosystem. Types of that influence are: Irkutsk hydropower station’s operation, lake’s overregulation, construction of Baikal-Amur Railroad and its consequences, development of tourism and sanitaria and health resorts, docks’ and piers’ constructions in the coastal zone, etc. These factors have a certain influence on the processes of relief forming and sediment formation, forming of ecological characteristics of Baikal coastal zone.

ENVIRONMENTAL VULNERABILITY

В последние годы угрожающий характер принимает нерациональное использование береговой полосы Байкала под строительство и рекреацию. Общеизвестно, что всякая хозяйственная деятельность в береговой зоне
неизбежно сопровождается изменением первоначального состояния берегового ландшафта (нарушением почвенно-растительного покрова, изменением рельефа и литодинамических особенностей, деградацией флоры и фауны, загрязнением территории и т.д.). Так, в береговой зоне и на побережье Малого Моря наблюдается бесконтрольное развитие туризма стремительными темпами.
