ABSTRACT

Methodical aspects of assessment of ecological conditions of the river mouth sites based on the known interrelation between aquatic vegetation landscape complexes (AVLC) and hydroecological characteristics of aquatic environment are considered. As the basis of the analysis, the formal classification of AVLC based on the principles of landscape-system approach and Fuzzy Sets theory is proposed. The results of the research of criteria for evaluation and selection of space images for interpretation of landscape structures are presented.
