Purpose. To analyze the array of scientific literature to identify and synthesize statistical information on changes in the level of microbiological contamination of groundwater, which participate in the development of the water balance of aquaculture facilities. This will involve a systematic review and quantitative synthesis of previous research results, including data collection on bacterial contamination, time series of measurements, spatial location of samples and related parameters. The collected data will be standardized and prepared for statistical processing.

Findings. A generalized review of modern scientific publications devoted to the study of levels of microbiological contamination of groundwater, which participate in the development of the water balance of aquaculture facilities in various regions of the world, is presented. The results of observations of the dynamics of the main parameters of microbial contamination, such as the content of total coliform bacteria, Escherichia coli, enterococci and other pathogenic microorganisms, reflecting the sanitary and epidemiological state of underground aquifers, were analyzed, taking into account the time series of measurements, the depth of the aquifer and related parameters. The prospects of using the collected statistical materials for constructing multifactorial regression models capable of describing and quantifying the patterns of changes in the level of microbiological contamination of groundwater in time and space are shown. This approach allows us to identify the most significant predictors that affect the microbiological state of aquifer systems and create a basis for predicting potential pollution risks.

Practical Value. The results obtained are of important practical importance for fish farming as they contribute to the improvement of systems for monitoring the state of aquatic ecosystems, the optimization of measures to prevent contamination of groundwater and surface waters that participate in the development of the water balance of aquaculture facilities. The survey may be useful for the investigation and prevention of microbiological contamination of groundwater, surface water, and water bodies used for fish farming.

Keywords: aquaculture, fishery object, aquatic ecosystem, groundwater, bacteriological contamination, anaerobic microorganisms, total microbial count, number of colony-forming units.
