The work examines contemporary climate, soil cover, and vegetative cover of the southern forest-steppe in the Bashkir Cis-Ural region. Functioning of natural complexes in changing climate has been analyzed. Dynamics and transformation of the complexes under the impact of natural and anthropogenic factors have been investigated. Contemporary vegetative cover has been studied and the percentage of synanthropic species has been determined.
