Abstract

The results of research of the Baikal Natural Territory in the western part of the Primorskii Ridge and in the eastern part of the Barguzinskii Ridge are presented. The regional background and the main factors of the landscape differentiation of the research areas are analyzed. Some regularities in the structure of the topological level of the geosystems are revealed. We have found that the main factors affecting the landscape diversity are slope exposition and steepness, rock composition and structure, absolute height, precipitation, and anthropogenic impacts. We use data of weather stations on the Barguzinskii Ridge. The microclimatic observations along a macro-slope facing the Baikal Lake are used to examine the temperature-humidity regime of landscapes in detail, taking into account altitudinal zonality, exposure and steepness of slopes throughout the year. The thus obtained meteorological data can be used to give a climatic description of the study area.
