Abstract
<jats:p>Ensuring the resilience of the population’s quality of life in Ukraine under conditions of fullscale military aggression has acquired critical significance, as the destruction of critical infrastructure facilities, enterprise relocation, and massive internal population displacement have caused unprecedented structural changes in the territorial distribution of anthropogenic environmental pressure. The identification of natural resource dominants that determine the environmental component of resilience becomes a prerequisite for scientifically grounded planning of post-war reconstruction. The research aim is to develop methodological foundations and methodological tools for assessing the environmental conflict intensity of Ukrainian regions as a key characteristic of population quality of life resilience, as well as to identify natural resource dominants that determine the nature of structural environmental changes. The scientific novelty lies in substantiating a conceptual approach to understanding environmental conflict intensity as a dynamic characteristic of spatial formations and developing a methodology for calculating an integral index based on a system of five normalized indicators characterizing natural resource dominants of anthropogenic pressure. A complex of methods was applied to achieve the aim: systems approach, abstract-logical analysis, indicator normalization, and the equal interval method for regional grouping. Analysis of the regional dimension of structural changes has demonstrated a radical transformation of the territorial configuration of anthropogenic pressure, manifested in the geographical shift of environmental conflict intensity centers from the east and south to central regions. Four key dominants of structural environmental changes have been identified: the transformational impact of war, spatially polarized industrial pressure, intensive agricultural land exploitation, and institutional inefficiency, particularly in the sphere of waste management. Key patterns of territorial redistribution of anthropogenic pressure have been identified, and directions for further research on population quality of life resilience in the context of post-war reconstruction have been determined.</jats:p>
