Current state of landscaping objects in Volzhsky

Abstract

Green plantings in the urban environment form a natural carcass, increase environmental protection functions and create comfortable living conditions for the population. Research is relevant due to the fact that monitoring the state and conditions of green plantings growth is a prerequisite for timely adoption of measures to restore and maintain the proper functioning of urban natural-anthropogenic systems. The aim of the research is to assess the current state of landscaping objects in the city of Volzhsky. The plot with cadastral number 34:35:000000: 66118 has about 20% of dying trees, most of which are old-growth stands. Young and mature trees Populus nigra and Salix alba are in good condition. On the territory of the park (cadastral number 34:35:030121:201) >40% of trees are weakened or slightly damaged. The share of withering and withered trees reaches 27% of the total number of trees. Fraxinus excelsior is in the worst condition. 59% of Populus nigra trees dry up. In the park (cadastral number 34:35:030213:246) the forest stand and lawn cover are in excellent condition. The roadside forest belt (cadastral number 34:28:000000:2955) cannot fully fulfill its ecological functions and does not meet economic goals.
