The popular tourist, excursion and ski centers of Teberda and Dombay are located within the boundaries of the Teberda State Natural Biosphere Reserve (TSNBR). The result of the recreational development of the area was the drying up of the main layer of the endemic dark coniferous forest, which is located in the zone of local natural and climatic processes, transforming under the influence of anthropogenic activity. The degradation of the unique mountain-forest landscape is going. Comprehensive geoecological studies using geochemical, silvicultural-taxation, physical and geographical methods and means of remote sensing (images from the Landsat 8 spacecraft), when comparing the model of air temperature fields with the plan of afforestation and phytocenotic map, made it possible to determine ecological niches for dominants in the model dark coniferous array. The relative gradients of the thermal field of various associations are determined. The areas of forest plots, different in latent heat fluxes, depending on the degree of degradation of the main layer and the nature of the succession process, have been established. The optimal ecological conditions for the vector of natural reforestation have been determined.
