In this work, hydrochemical and hydromorphological characteristics of urban reservoirs of southwestern Belarus in the spring of 2020 were investigated. Hydromorphological characteristics of reservoirs were determined by field methods and GIS mapping methods. Hydrochemical assessment of water quality of reservoirs in the spring period was carried out according to 15 indicators. Multivariate statistical methods were used to analyze surface water quality. Based on the analysis of hydrochemical and hydromorphological indicators, an assessment of the ecological state of the reservoirs of the urboterritories of southwestern Belarus in the spring period of 2020 was given. During the study, patterns of distribution of morphometric characteristics of the reservoirs within the studied territory were established. The analysis of hydrochemical characteristics showed that the water quality of urban reservoirs depends on the types of anthropogenic effects.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
