An artificial canal on Russky Island (Sea of Japan) to intensify circulation and self-purification of Novik Bay

Abstract. The creation of an artificial canal to connect Novik Bay and Ussuri Bay on Russky Island in the Sea of Japan is proposed. The purpose of the structure is to protect the sea area around the island as compensation for the accelerated urbanization of the island. The canal leads to increased natural circulation and self-purification of Novik Bay. Quantitative estimates of circulation are provided taking into account the characteristics of the monsoon climate in the region. At the same time, it is planned to use this non-standard structure as a single tourist complex of the island together with an oceanarium, an embankment and a safari. The need for a gateway to monitor and regulate the ecological state of Novik Bay is noted.
