Abstract

In recent years, the flow of vacationers in the forests of cities’ green areas has significantly increased. In this regard, it raises the question about the influence of various forest plantations, or rather the "microclimate" of various types of forest conditions, on hemodynamic parameters of a healthy person. In everyday life, for example, there are cases when people's staying in a pine plantation causes malaise, dizziness, weakness, and even fainting. The research was carried out in various forest plantations, the most typical for the green zone of Voronezh city according to meteorological conditions. Studies of the state of vital organs and systems of a healthy person show that the "microclimate" of various forest stands is not indifferent to a person and causes him a number of changes in hemodynamics. The noted changes in hemodynamics suggest that mixed plantings, multi-tiered, do not cause drastic changes in the body of a healthy person. The main criterion for the training of new cities’ green areas and the reconstruction of existing ones should be the creation of complex, multi-tiered plantings, especially for short-term recreation.
