The cleanest beaches and the sea are looking for and finding! What are the two most transparent seas on earth. For sure.

The first place for the purity of water is the Dead Sea, which is located between Jordan and Israel. His sterility is provided large quantity Salt, which makes water absolutely unsuitable for the existence of any living beings - from fish to microorganisms. But this sea helps in the treatment of rheumatism and depression. Nevertheless, purity this object It is under threat, because a person worsens an ecological situation every year.

Sea Wedell

Western Antarctica, Western Beach, Westle's Sea also refers to the cleanest seas in the world. Almost 30 years ago, it was even listed in the book of records on this indicator. The studies conducted then showed that a special disk that the transparency of water was distinguished at a depth of 79 meters from 80 possible. Such indicators would hardly have been possible if it were near a person's accommodation.

Red sea

The inner sea of \u200b\u200bthe Indian Ocean is not only the most saline, but also one of the cleanest seas. Its area reaches 450 thousand square kilometers, and the volume of water in it is 251 thousand cubic meters. Also, the Red Sea does not have equal in the number and variety of marine flora and fauna. Its transparency is explained by the absence of rivers flowing into it, which often carry sand and il. Despite this, every year the ecological situation of the Red Sea deteriorates, because some vessels dump garbage and waste directly into the water.

Mediterranean Sea

The third place for water purity shares with the Red Mediterranean Sea. Next to some coasts of Turkey and Greece, it received even the "Blue Flag" - a prestigious status indicating that the purity of water corresponds to the environmental requirements of the European Union. But on the coasts of France, Italy and Spain, Mediterranean waters are considered pretty dirty due to waste developed industry, which fall into them. These countries were repeatedly fined with representatives of the EU environmental organization.

the Aegean sea

The purity of the Aegean Sea also depends on the coast. Some of the most sterile waters are washed by Greece, but from the shores of Turkey, the Aegean Sea systematically suffers from reset wastewater. During the so-called "red tides" from the depths of this sea, layers containing a large number of Nitrogen and phosphorus. To swim in such water during this period and even more so consume seafood, caught out of it, is not recommended.

A few centuries ago, the list with the title "The most pure in the world of the sea" could be quite impressive. However, thanks to humanity, the picture has changed today, and so much for the worse, and this process, unfortunately, progresses.

Developing industry and the growth of accessibility of tourism make their job. Technical waste I. great amount garbage steel part of Seas. However, the hopes of people plunge into the water of the clean sea do not leave them. What is the cleaner sea in the world, and what place the sea is occupied by purity, the shores of Russia? In this article we will try to find an answer to these important questions.

The most pure sea in the world

Before talking about the most pure sea of \u200b\u200bRussia, we will provide brief information about the most the best seas World. Unfortunately, swim in the cleanest waters of the planet quite difficult for various reasons. Judge for yourself:

  1. The most pure in the world is located in Western Antarctica. This purest natural reservoir round year Covered with ice and icebergs, so it is both one of the coldest all over the world (-1.8 ° C - water temperature in winter).
  2. Sargassovo Sea is the second in purity. His uniqueness is that he has no shores, and its boundaries are designated approximately, correlating with the ocean currents.
  3. The dead sea is more like a lake, but due to the increased salinity of the water is still called the sea. Life in its waters is impossible even for bacteria, and the fish, accidentally falling into it, almost instantly dies. People can be swimming in it, but it is quite difficult to do it - water immediately pushes onto the surface.

Southern Russian Seas

Among the warm seas, the shores of Russia, the most popular - Azov and black. How clean are they? In this regard, things are worse here than in the world.

  1. The Black Sea refers to polluted seas. On his Russian coast, it is better to rest in places as far as possible from civilization. A huge number of ports, developed shipping, discharges of industrial waste are the main factors that adversely affect the ecology of these places. In addition, at the bottom of the Black Sea there is a layer of hydrogen sulfide, formed, according to scientists, as a result of the decomposition of living organisms in those times, when the water of the sea was flooded with nearby territories. There is practically no living in this layer, and all living organisms of the sea are forced to dwell in its surface waters.
  2. The Sea of \u200b\u200bAzov is much smaller and the warmer of black. And there are also plots and clean, and highly polluted, especially at the end of the beach season. With all this it is almost not inferior to other seas.

Rating of the cleanest seas of Russia

But within the framework of one of the projects of the center "ScanEx", water areas of the 5 seas were studied, whose shores are adjacent to Russia. Studies were carried out using satellite shots of radar. The purpose of such an important project is to assess the ecological state of the Black, Baltic, Caspian, White, Okhotsky and Black Seas. After careful processing of more than fifty pictures, it was found that among them only white does not have anthropogenic pollution. Scientifly reasonable, that this is the cleanest sea of \u200b\u200bRussia.

The media also held some attempt to reveal the cleanest Russian sea through the vote. After the survey, the following votes distribution were obtained:

  • Karskaya (previous Narms) Sea - 37.5%;
  • Caspian Sea - 12.5%;
  • Barents - 12.5%;
  • there are no clean seas in Russia - 37.5%.

It turns out that the Russians' beloved among the Russians - Black, Azov and Baltic, are not at all in the list of such a rating.

White Sea

The cleanest for relaxation sea in Russia is white. This natural reservoir is quite well studied by Soviet and Russian scientists. In their opinion, the cleanliness of this sea there is no equal in Russia.

You can also beach rest Perfectly combine with a hike behind mushrooms and berries and fishing. In the summer, sea seals, seals and beluga are sailed to the shores from the whale family.

The worst sea of \u200b\u200bRussia is nevertheless also exposed to anthropogenic effects. Factories and plants that produce paper, cardboard, cellulose and lumber are located in river basins that feed the smallest and shallow water in the north of the White Sea.

Of particular interest and attention to its ecology originated in the spring of 1990. At that time, a huge number of small inhabitants (starfish, etc.), was thrown to the shore of the Dvina Bay storm, and the shaped shaft orange color It stretches then along the edge of the surf for tens of kilometers.

The best beaches of Russia

The cleansing sea of \u200b\u200bRussia is white, but the largest number best beaches Located on the coasts of Black (Crimea) and the Baltic (Kaliningrad region) of the seas.

So, the cleanest beaches of Russia (not only on:

  • "Imeretsky" (city of Sochi) - Beach occupying fifth place, artificial origin, which is one of best resorts Russian coast of the Black Sea.

  • "Jemetsky" (Anapa) is one of the best and clean beaches of the Black Sea coast of Russia, which occupies third place In the ranking, has a gentle smooth descent into water.
  • Golden (Crimea, Feodosia) is a huge 15-kilometer sand strip of a width of about 100 meters.
  • Massandrovsky (Crimea, Yalta) - the first beach in the Crimea, which earned the "Blue Flag" and occupying first place in ranking.

Conclusion

Where is the cleanest sea of \u200b\u200bRussia? The Black Sea coast for today is the most popular place among Russians who prefer to rest in the territory of their country. But, as you can see, this is not the most the best way In terms of environmental purity.

Even the White Sea, formed about 12,000 years ago, that according to the standards geological talks about his youth, also needs to be protected due to the fact that every year the danger of the emergence of an ecological catastrophe occurs, which affects most of all seas on the planet.

Measurement of transparency of water

The transparency of water is customary to determine using simple adaptation - Disc pieces. This is a white disc with a diameter of 30 centimeters, which goes into the water in a horizontal position. The observer notes that the depth remains visible under water the white spot disc is and will be the result of measuring transparency. The disc can be replaced with a light bulb, but then you need to take into account the amendment, after spending the calibration measurement.

Today, in most of our seas, water transparency, to put it mildly, is no different. Here are some registered results of measurements of the transparency of water: Sargassovo Sea - 66 m, the Mediterranean Sea (off the coast of Syria) - 60 m, the Black Sea - 77 m, the North Sea - 22 m.

A dozen places on the planet with the most transparent water looks like this:

Lowned standard white disk remained visible until the high tag was not 79 meters! For comparison - in distilled water, this value is 80 meters.

Hence, sea \u200b\u200bwater In this place turned out to be perfectly clean. It is worth noting that this measurement was carried out in the month of October, when in Antarctica Spring, and water during this period is the cleanest.
