3.3. Methodological approaches of PfMZ study
The study of depression-type PFMZ was conducted at six sites in the CEZ
and the experimental site “Lyutezh,” 30 km north of Kyiv. In addition, some
PFMZ components have been studied at pilot sites of Chernihiv, Mykolaiv, and
Odessa regions.
As a methodological framework, the landscape and geological principles of
study were accepted. All methods have been specially selected and tested at the
experimental site. The objective of the PFMZ study was to obtain a wide range of
factual data that can be grouped according to the following: (1) the nature of
regional development of depression forms, (2) the external and internal structures
of the depressions, (3) the morphogenetic reconstruction, (4) factors affecting
PFMZ formation and development, and (5) current processes and modeling of
PFMZ changes in comparison with the background sites.
For the regional assessment of the PFMZ features, satellite images, aerial
photographs, and topographic maps were used. In the key sites the results of the
off-site analysis were checked.
The detailed study of depressions allows determination of the following:
1.
Degree of activity of individual morphological components or separate
depression forms by the nature of the slopes (concentration, dispersion of
elevation isolines contour lines)
