Anthropogenic factor as a relief-forming factor of the coastal zone of the Black Sea coast of the Krasnodar territory (on the example of the Tuapse-Adler coastline)

The ever-increasing techno genic and anthropogenic load on the seacoasts, which significantly affects natural coastal processes, is increasingly beginning to act as a determining relief-forming factor. Hydraulic structures erected in the coastal zone have a dual effect on the natural coastal processes. On the one hand, they themselves are an artificially created relief, and on the other hand, the structures being erected have a significant effect on natural coastal processes. The example of the coastal section between Tuapse and Adler, located within the Black Sea coast of Krasnodar Territory, which experiences enormous technogenic and anthropogenic load on the coast, shows the need to identify anthropogenic coastal dynamic systems as an independent relief-forming factor. At the same time, an assessment should be made of both the processes occurring within the system and its impact on the natural processes occurring in the adjacent coastal areas.
