The article is concerned with landscape and limnological research of lake
systems in the plain areas of the Republic of Kazakhstan. The results obtained
present field expeditionary, landscape and limnological research, primarily of the
plain areas of the northeastern borderlands of the Republic of Kazakhstan. A
genetical classification of lake basins in key areas, as a single natural complex, based
on the main features of environmental conditions in the research area is given. The
hydrological and hydrochemical data of lake systems (temperature, transparency
and color of water, pH value, content of oxygen dissolved in water and BOD5 of
biochemical oxygen demand) are determined. An assessment of the recreational
capacity of lakes in the region is given. The created electronic geodatabase is open
to replenish it with miscellaneous information (from paleogeographic data to
modern results of environmental monitoring) and can serve as the basis for creating a multi-purpose cadastre of reservoirs, as well as for justifying balanced
nature resource management schemes in the areas covered with lakes.
