Abstract

to date, the main parameters for assessing the state of the forest are the average age, height, diameter, and completeness of the main forest-forming rocks, expressed in meters, fractions of a meter, or cubic meters. At the same time, on the same test areas, other measurement measures are used for soil research: milligrams, grams, percentages, moles, etc. Naturally, it is impossible to combine these indicators when characterizing the forest environment. To do this, first of all, you should choose a single system of measures, parameters and indicators that combine the biogenic and lithogenic parts of the landscape. Knowing that their interaction is based on energy and mass exchange, we suggest using measures common to both subsystems. The initial indicators for quantifying the oxygen-producing and carbon-depositing functions, as well as the energy accumulated in the primary products of forest ecosystems, are the elements of biological productivity expressed in weight units. 
 The object of research – Voronezh upland oak forest, with a total area of more than 7 thousand hectares, is the Central organizing element of the entire urban ecosystem of Voronezh. The tree stand is represented by coniferous crops along the left Bank of the floodplain terraces, as well as broad-leaved forest plantations spread on the riverine slopes of the watershed.
