INTEGRATED ASSESSMENT OF THE ECOLOGICAL STATE OF THE CHERNIHIV REGION

The paper presents a new method of comprehensive assessment of the ecological state of a region. A comprehensive assessment of the ecological state of Chernihiv region includes an analysis of the qualitative state of soils and land resources, surface waters and atmospheric air. The comprehensive assessment of the region allows not only to identify problematic aspects of the environmental situation in the region, but also to identify ways to overcome them and prevent further pollution. Based on the identification of sources of environmental pollution, recommendations were developed to improve the environmental situation in the region. The analysis of the ecological state of Chernihiv region is important for preserving natural ecosystems, ensuring public health and creating favorable conditions for sustainable development of the region.
