Mapping of West Siberian Plant Consistency for Urban Landscapes

Although greening of urban landscapes is an extremely important for the environment formation, less attention is given to it. To improve the urban landscape quality and representation, it is necessary to consider the criteria and characteristics of different plant species when planting them together. This work highlights the consistency of woody-shrubby and herbaceous plants based on such parameters as the root system, illumination, composition, soil humidity and function, winter- and drought resistance, flowering period. Purpose: The purpose of this study is mapping of West Siberian woody-shrubby and herbaceous plant consistency in order to improve the landscapes quality and representation. Methodology : Landscape, cartographic and theoretical analysis, synthesis, comparison, modeling. Research findings: Mapping of West Siberian woody-shrubby and herbaceous plants includes 36 samples and 630 combinations. The compositions are mapped and recommended for joint planting of urban landscapes.
