Abstract
Abstract: In the article are presented an analysis of the spatial variability of the field of the environmental factor «The depth of the relief dismemberment, m/sq. km» within the landscapes of the Crimean Peninsula. It is shown that the factor of depth of relief dismemberment influences the differentiation of the landscapes of the Crimean Peninsula.
Subject: quantitative assessment of depth of relief dismemberment within the taxonomic units of the landscape organization of the Crimean Peninsula. The study is aimed at solving the problem of the lack of data to assess the geomorphological characteristics of the territory of the Crimean Peninsula, in relation to various tasks of national economic planning and development. Quantitative studies of the indicator of the depth of dissection of the relief within the taxonomic units of the landscape organization of the Crimean Peninsula are being conducted for the first time.
Materials and methods: the paper uses geoinformation research methods, which allowed to collect and perform primary processing of spatial information; statistical methods for analyzing the data obtained, in particular a statistical package, as well as traditional methods of comparative geographical description, analysis and synthesis.
Results: primary statistical data were obtained and a database was created with the values of the indicator «Depth of relief dismemberment, m/sq. km» within the landscapes of the Crimean Peninsula at various hierarchical levels of the landscape sphere organization.
Conclusions: for the Crimean Peninsula, the calculation of the values of depth of relief dismemberment in the context of taxonomic units of the landscape sphere was carried out for the first time. The data obtained are relevant when carrying out works on territorial and landscape planning, within the framework of geological and hydrological surveys, for making managerial decisions.
