Abstract

The article is about ecosystem services analysis of urbosystems green plantations that are aimed at improving of the environment quality and human well-being, and information about them is of particular importance for making managerial decisions regarding the ecological safety of city environment. The state of green plantations are characterized and the ecological problems of the city are identified, which are, first of all, associated with considerable anthropogenic pressure on atmospheric air. Regulating, cultural, supporting ecosystem services of green plantations are investigated and analyzed, the mechanism of their formation is determined. The supporting ecosystem service is estimated by the amount of green plantings oxygen production. It is established, that during the year the urbosystem produces 16611 tons of oxygen. Arable land and meadows produce 6500 tons (39%), parks and other green plantations - 5640 tons (34%), water surface - 92 tons (about 1%), and other city territory - 573714 tons (22%). The urbosystem oxygen balance is scarce and equal to -5901,3 tons / year. The Urbosystem uses 39% of the produced oxygen. A number of environmental measures were proposed to improve the system of urbosystem greening, including the green plantations inventory, appropriate care, and the green areas expansion in suburban areas.
