Abstract
The long term monitoring and observations were carried out in order to study current ecological state of Chukhuryurd lake. The presented research was carried out with the assistance of remote sensing method using several sattilites materials from various companies including Shuttle Radar Topography Mission (SRTM, Global Land Cover SHARE database, NASA's MERRA-2 Modern-Era Retrospective Analysis,  AskGeo.com, GeoNames Geographical Database. Besides the mentioned sources Bing Map, OSM (Open Street Map), Google Map, Yandex Map and Google Earth were utilized. The first monitoring and investigation for Chukhuryurd lake ecosystem was carried out. The surface water pollution level has been studied in different zones of the lake. Deforestation process is intended to realize for the lake coast to determine soil loss and worthless areas for ecotourism possibilities. The total square of the lake was firstly determined about 87,480 m². The water volume of the lake is revealed more than 903059,6 m3. The surface pollution thickness reaches 5-15 cm. By remote sensing monitoring method the changing in the lake basin was determined. Elevation index of the lake is 1057 m above sea level. The large width of the lake consists of 169.03 m. The narrowest lake width is about 7,83 m.  The lake length stretches to 512,71 m. Geographical location coordinates were defined at 40°42'29.61"N latitude and 48°37'17.43"E longitude. Ecotourism potential of the surround territory around the lake was investigated. The agro and natural biocenoses’ territory surrounding Chukhuryurd lake have been defined by the help of remote sensing method. The sources of the household wastes were looking through and determined. The first monitoring and investigation for Chukhuryurd lake ecosystem was carried out. Bird migration rout and seasons were determined, dynamics of antropogenous and technogenous impact of the lake have been defined after many years.  At the same time climate parameters have been investigated and analyzed. The first investigation about Chukhuryurd lake was carried out because of being polluted by the house hold wastes for many years. In none of scientific literatures or other sources, any information exists about the lake.
