Эволюция представлений о динамике юго-восточных берегов Балтийского моря

Аннотация

The efficient use of the natural resources of coasts essentially depends on how correct are the notions on the long-term evolution of the coastal zone. The concept that the SE Baltic coast evolution is controlled by a single East Baltic debris flow is proved to be inconsistent. A new, non-traditional concept is introduced and substantiated, which considers the Holocene evolution of the SE Baltic coast proceeding by step-by-step development of relatively independent lithodynamic systems. The concept chould be taken as a starting point for coast protection measures and rational land use planning in the region.
