| Popis: | The article provides a brief overview of the history of researching of the lakes of the Nizhny Novgorod region. The research area is located in the west of the Nizhny Novgorod region, and characterized by extremely poor knowledge of the main characteristics, origin and development of lakes. The exploration of morphometric and hydrological characteristics of lakes is solved by instrumental measurements in the field. Consideration of the genesis and evolution of lakes is a more complex issue, and its solution without taking into account the landscape structure of the territory and the specifics of the geological structure, geomorphological, botanical and other characteristics of the host landscape cannot be accepted as a complete logical work. In this article, along with the morphometric and hydrological features of the researched lakes, the modern physico-geographical characteristics of the researched territory are presented, based on the results of the analysis of thematic maps, remote sensing data, statistical and literary data and field researches. Bathygraphic schemes of seven largest and most typical lakes, located on the terraces above the floodplain of the Oka River Valley within the Nizhny Novgorod Region, created, based on the results of field research, are presented. The main morphometric and hydrological characteristics of the researched lakes were calculated and analyzed using GIS. On the basis of morphometric characteristics and taking into account the features of the geological structure, topography, hydrographic network of the territory and vegetation features of the superaqual complex, judgments are made about the genesis of the considered lakes. |
