Course content
the academic discipline is devoted to the study of the theoretical and methodological principles of the step-by-step analysis of anthropogenic load and its impact on the ecological state of water bodies, based on the European DPSIR methodology, developed by the European Ecology Agency, in particular, in terms of the following main issues: general analysis of anthropogenic activity within the catchment , determination of the general budget of organic substances from point and diffuse sources, determination of the general budget of biogenic elements from point and diffuse sources, determination of the general budget of hazardous substances from point and diffuse sources, identification of significant sources of pollution, establishment of the presence of anthropogenic influence on the state of water bodies, calculation of the risk of not achieving a "good" ecological state, development of basic scenarios for the period of validity of the management plan, establishment of management goal
