Levchuk O. The Peculiarities of Recreational Forest-Using on Watershed Principles on the Southern Macroside of Crimean Mountains

The object of investigations - hydrological and recreational functions of forests in mountain sites of Crimea. The aim of investigations - the ground of possibilities for sustainable recreational forest using foundation on the Southern Macroside of Crimean Mountains on watersheds.
