Abstract

Ecological and biogeochemical monitoring of the state of the landscapes of the Tsemesskaya Bay studied changes in the content of a number of metals in the most common algae. Sampling was conducted annually in spring and summer. To increase the reliability of the data, information was processed on a specially compiled map of aquatic geochemical landscapes. During the period under study the highest concentration of the majority of studied metals in algae was registered in 1998. This is most likely due to previous pollution of the bay, when almost all enterprises of Novorossiysk were still operating. Minimum concentrations of metals in algae are typical for 1999. In 2000 metal concentrations started to increase again.
