The integral environmental and biological assessment of the current state of the suburban green belt of Vladivostok is considered. The species and coenotic composition of vegetation, the level of anthropogenic transformation, the levels of recreational and technogenic loads on the forest ecosystems were studied. The progressive negative impact of the urbanization and recreation on the environmental status of vegetation and soil cover was found to be more pronounced along the gradient towards the city margins. The measures to optimize the status of the forest-park plantations of the green belt of Vladivostok are proposed.
