It is noted that the solution of geoecological problems largely depends on the availability of reliable and comprehensive information about the state of the geosystem and its development trends. The paper presents ecological-dynamic series reflecting changes in the floristic composition of meadow phytocenoses on the anthropogenically eroded slope under conditions of a developing landslide in 2000–2019. The data obtained make it possible to assess the degree of disturbance of the geosystem and can be used to plan economic and environmental protection measures. The article notes to reduce the anthropogenic load on such easily vulnerable biogeosystems as floodplain meadows located on a landslide slope near the built-up area, first of all it is necessary to identify the boundaries of the water protection zone and the coastal protective zone in the site of landslide process, to provide soil consolidation and to restore the vegetation cover, to organize groundwater discharge points on slope, to catch and to organize and surface runoff treatment. It is important to carry out engineering measures for monitoring the landslide development in order to prevent the adverse consequences.
