In this study, we studied the vital state of stands of Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris L.) growing in the city ofKrasnoyarsk, conducted biomonitoring. An assessment of the natural environment of the city of Krasnoyarsk is given bystudying the influence of external factors on the environmental stability of pine stands. We examined stands of Scots pineat 6 sites in Krasnoyarsk, of which 50 % are in normal condition, 40 % are weakened and 10 % are damaged, comparedto the control site, which is located far from the city. In urban areas, trees are affected by high anthropogenic loads, whichnegatively affects their condition.
