Integral Assessment of the Impact on Ukraine’s Environment of Military Actions in the Conditions of Russian Aggression

Abstract

The article outlines the current issues of environmental security in the context of the escalation of the Russian-Ukrainian war. The purpose of the study is to assess the risks associated with environmental hazards in the context of the escalation of the Russian-Ukrainian war. The article provides an overview of implementations of the economic mechanism of environmental risk assessment and provides quantitative characteristics of integrated threat assessments that characterize the environmental security of the regions of Ukraine. According to the results of the assessment of the integral indicator of ecological danger, the regions of Ukraine are grouped according to the level of safety. Estimated values are identified according to the proposed numerical range of environmental risk values. The obtained results indicate that the regions of Ukraine differ in terms of the integral indicator of ecological danger. To assess the danger of anthropogenic impact on human and environmental safety, the following environmental safety risk assessments were calculated.

A Framework for a Hazard Taxonomy to Support Risk Assessment of Tangible Outdoor Heritage

“…In this second evaluation process, one paper was excluded from RQ1 and two papers were excluded from RQ2. The SLR made it possible to define indicators to be implemented in the framework of use for measuring the probability that this risk might take place, but there is no evidence of the use of quantitative indices [155][156][157][158][159][160][161]. The analysis shows that war has a devastating impact on CH, becoming a triggering factor for such other risks as soil and water pollution; on natural ecosystems; on the economy; and on a country's political stability.…”

Метеорологічні Та Кліматичні Наслідки Воєнних Дій В Україні

“…Широкомасштабна російська воєнна агресія вже призвела до деяких серйозних і небезпечних наслідків на території України. Переважно вони пов'язані з ризиком забруднення довкілля через удари по населених пунктах, пошкодження і руйнування підприємств, об'єктів транспортної інфраструктури, нафтосховищ, з припиненням електро-і водопостачання, порушенням технологічних процесів, що відбувається в результаті ракетних обстрілів та ведення активних бойових дій [1][2][3][4].…”
