The aim is to study the small ponds in big city (for example, stages of Didorivskii and Horihuvatskii streams). For the purpose of research, faced the task to investigate ecological features of the current state of water cascades of Didorivskii and Horihuvatskii streams and surrounding areas, quantify the content of chemical compounds using specialized test systems and analyze changes that took place in the period between studies. Objects of the study are stages of Didorivskii and Horihuvatskii streams and the surrounding landscape group. Subject of investigation is the ecological state of water bodies in Didorivskii and Horihuvatskii streams and landscapes, methods and measures to improve the environment within their pools. Cascades of urban ponds are among the richest composition in species and recreation major from the point of view of natural and man-made systems. This explains the relevance of the study of these reservoirs. Overall, Horihuvatskii stream experienced more negative effects of human activities than Didorivskii, because of the proximity of a powerful corridor and residential and industrial buildings.
