Description
Summary:The major shore-forming factors typical of Lake Baikal, the main types and subtypes of lake shore, and their current state are considered. The complex geological structure has determined the diversity of lake shore types. The identified types of shores are structural–abrasion, abrasion, accumulative, biogenic, and technogenic. Each shore type shows a specific response to the natural–technogenic variations of lake level and other shore-forming factors.
