Abstract

The results of studying the ecological and landscape balance of the territory of the Botanical Garden of Voronezh State University are published in the paper. The prospects of its use for sustainable develop-ment are also described. The ecological value of all landscape complexes (LC) of the botanical garden is classified using the indicators of the richness of flora and vegetation, the diversity of relief and soil conditions, the attractiveness of landscapes. Three main categories are singled out: 1 — very valuable, 2 — valuable and 3 — less valuable. As a result of the study, a map scheme was prepared, on which two ecology-landscape zones and seven landscape complexes of different categories of ecological value were singled out. The opportunity for organizing ecological tourism in the territory of the Botanical Garden is shown. The measures for increasing the ecological value of the LC and the demand for ecosystem services of the botanical garden are suggested.

Keywords
