The water exchange and water quality improvement measures on the example of the Gulf of Cheboksary

Abstract

This paper is dedicated to the Gulf of Cheboksary. The gulf has an important recreational and decorative function. It has been an integral part of the urban landscape for several decades. There is an eutrophication process, accompanied by the development of blue-green algae and the appearance of an odour in early spring, despite the water quality improvement measures. Measures that will improve the water exchange in the Gulf are proposed in this paper. Problems with the sanitary condition of the water body can occur without taking these measures. Therefore, the theme of this research is quite urgent.
