ABSTRACT: Usage of methods for determination of long-time trends in the dynamics of vegetation formation on the background of climate changes becomes more important at modern stage of the assessment of natural systems development. Solution of such a task results inevitably in necessity to correct the understanding of existing processes occurring in the vegetation cover. It allows establishing a direction of their development in system of natural factors of any territory. The aim of this study is to find peculiarities of spatial and temporal organization of phytocenoses-ecotones between altitudinal belts, zonal forest- steppe and zonal steppe, as well as one of phytocenoses reflecting paragenese as indicators of structural and dynamical organization of vegetation for different areas of Lake Baikal basine (Pre-Baikal).
