Geoecological assessment of water using in the transboundary Amur River basin: point pollution and water quality.

Abstract

The spatial structure and dynamics of anthropogenic impact on watercourses of the Russian part of the Amur River basin from point sources have been analyzed. Assessment of water quality in the main course of the Amur River has been done using complex combinatorial index of water pollution for period 2005–2015. The connection of the improvement of water quality of the Amur River near Khabarovsk with the change of the water quality of the Songhua River has been revealed.
