The qualitative theory of differential equations (catastrophe theory) is used to analyze the optimal preservation of the ecological state of an object. As the object, we consider a seacoast that is subject to permanent destruction by waves and is fed to maintain its initial state. We model the maintenance of the equilibrium state of ecological system in some optimal mode. Unlike the well-known approaches, such model takes into account essentially nonlinear effects and control by means of beach feed, which can be interpreted as feedback. The analysis is carried out by the methods from stability theory. Characteristics of the limit cycle are obtained and its stability is analyzed.KeywordsHopf bifurcationecogeosystemstabilitycatastrophe theory
