Abstract
The article presents the results of hydroecological modeling of variations of phytoplankton biomass, biogenic substances, and dissolved oxygen concentration in a reach of the Lower Don within the designed Bagaevskoe Reservoir at different variants of its design levels and possible natural and anthropogenic impacts. Water releases from the Tsimlyansk Hydropower System are shown to have the key role in the formation of the environmental conditions of the designed reservoir.
