Abstract

Indirect chemical characteristics of organic matter concentration were determined in small streams in especially protected natural territories, including 15 tributaries of Lake Pleshcheyevo in the territory of Lake Pleshcheyevo National Park and the Tadenka River in Prioksko-Terrasnyi Nature Reserve. The tributaries of Lake Pleshcheyevo show distinct seasonal dynamics of organic matter concentration, and its dependence on the character of stream recharge. The heterogeneity of the character of relief and the geological structure of Lake Pleshcheyevo drainage basin, as well as the anthropogenic impact cause a difference between the chemical composition of dissolved substances in the tributaries. In the Tadenka R., in addition to the natural factors of organic matter formation, labile organic matter of zoogenic origin was found to enter the river water. The anomalously hot weather and the acute deficiency of precipitation during the vegetation period of 2010 had their effect on the hydrochemical regime of the river.
