Abstract
The review is devoted to the analysis of scientific publications, as well as regulatory legal acts and documents in the field of radioecology and radiation situation assessment in the Baltic Sea. To date, certain areas of the Baltic Sea are classified as environmentally unfavorable in terms of a number of harmful (polluting) substances that have a negative impact on the environment, including radiation conditions.
The article deals with two main aspects of radioecology problems: international and regional (Russian) within the Baltic Sea. Potentially hazardous objects and the main radioecological problems that are relevant at this time and require scientific and practical solutions have been analyzed.
The objects of negative impact in the course of the study were taken into account generally accepted four main components with different concentrations of pollutants: water, organisms and suspended organic matter, sediments and surface film.
Having studied and analyzed the statistical data of scientific research using the methods of generalized data processing, systematization and comparative analysis, a general conclusion about modern approaches to assessing and predicting the radiation situation in the Baltic Sea has been drawn.
In our opinion, improving the efficiency of systems for ensuring radioecological safety is relevant at the present time and requires a constant and comprehensive analysis of its state, which may allow timely assessment and forecasting of the radiation situation in the Baltic Sea.
Secondly, it is necessary to combine the efforts of the scientific community, public organizations and practicing professionals of industrial corporations from all countries of the region, which will increase the level of environmental safety of the Baltic Sea.
