Краткое содержание:
Инновационная теория экологических механизмов самоочищения воды пресноводных и морских экосистем. Согласно данной теории, экологические механизмы помогают сохранять водные ресурсы рек, озер и других водоемов, играющих важную роль в водоснабжении.
  
Abstract in short: 
An innovative theory of ecological mechanisms of self-purification of water in freshwater and marine ecosystems. The theory helps to protect water resources of rivers, lakes, and other water bodies that are important for water supply.

Abstract:

      The paper presents an updated conceptualization of ecosystem’s biomachinery (a new scientific term that was proposed by the author; it means ecological mechanisms that include biological communities and biodiversity) which improves water quality. The innovative experimental data analysis, concepts, and generalizations in this article provide the fundamental elements of the new qualitative theory of biocontrol of water quality in a systematized form. This theory was put forward in the previous papers of the author. The theory covers water self-purification in freshwater and marine ecosystems. The theory is supported by the results of the author’s experimental studies of the effects exerted by some chemical pollutants including synthetic surfactants, detergents, and other xenobiotics on aquatic organisms. The new fundamental conceptualization provides a basis for remediation of polluted aquatic ecosystems including purification of water bodies and streams, and briefly present the qualitative theory of the self-purification mechanism of aquatic ecosystems, phytoremediation and other types of technologies.
