It is well known that condition of environment is one of the most
significant factors affecting the perspectives for tourism in the region. So, when we
are considering ways of tourism development in such industrial cities as Pavlodar,
usually we have to describe environmental conditions in the region. Thus, the main
aim of the research is to reveal ecological characteristics of industrial city Pavlodar as
a touristic region. The main methods used in the research are environmental risks
analysis, elemental analysis of soils and snow, GIS. On the territory of Pavlodar
region the industry is concentrated in the center of 3 industrial units - in such cities
as Pavlodar, Ekibastuz, and Aksu. Enterprises of these centers are the main air
pollutants; it is 99.3% of all industrial emissions of the territories. The possibility of
using geochemical data on the content of microelements in soils and snow cover for zoning the territory of Pavlodar is shown in this article. According to the classification
of Yu.V. Sayet snow cover of central area in Pavlodar refers to the average moderately
dangerous levels of pollution; the northern and eastern industrial zones refer to a
dangerously high pollution. Researches of soil cover showed soil in residential zones
and zones of northern suburbs belong to an acceptable level of pollution, soil in
eastern and northern industrial zones belong to a high level of pollution. Evaluation
of anthropogenic impact on natural complexes of the region, including the Irtysh
River, is given. Regulation of runoff of the Irtysh River cascade of reservoirs in the
upper reaches by short and untimely release of water has led to a change in bioproductivity, abundance and species composition of phytocenoses. External water
filling floodplains, not associated with the dissolved soil humus, on the contrary, they
contribute to the accelerated migration of acids and intense growth and development
of meadow grasses. With the cessation of seasonal bays mode soil skewed towards
reducing the activity of the process. It was concluded that ecological condition of the
considered region can negatively affect on the tourism intensity of the region.
