Types of shores of the Schmidt Peninsula (Sakhalin Island) and issues of environmental management. P.F. BROVKO1, G.D. DZEN2, M.G. ZHUKOVINA1, A.V. MALYUGIN1 (1Far Eastern Federal University, Vladivostok, 2Sakhalin branch of Russian Federal Research Institute of Fisheries and Oceanography, Yuzhno-Sakhalinsk).
The article presents morphological information, features of the dynamics of the shores of the northernmost territory of Sakhalin Island, which is the least studied in geomorphological terms. Three types of shores have been identified: abrasion, abrasion-denudation, and lagoon. New material on the morphology and dynamics of the coast was obtained during expeditionary work on the western and eastern coasts, during aerovisual observations and analysis of aerial and satellite images. The possibilities of development of nature protection and recreational activities on the peninsula are considered.
