Abstract

El "Youth Park" de Kutaisi se construyó en la segunda mitad del siglo pasado. Su trazado es regular, y la estructura espacio-volumétrica de la cubierta vegetal se ajusta a los parámetros de la zona climática de Georgia. Según datos de 2024, en el parque crecen 5166 plantas leñosas de 36 familias, 55 géneros y 62 especies, la mayoría de las cuales tienen más de 70 años. La mayoría de los árboles están bien desarrollados, aunque también hay ejemplares débiles que crecen en condiciones de sombra. El 80% de las plantas adultas son perennes, lo que determina su efecto durante todo el año. Un estudio de las condiciones térmicas en el territorio del parque mostró que la temperatura en las arboledas formadas por árboles adultos era casi 6,3 °C inferior a la de las zonas sin sombra. Recomendamos realizar una poda sanitaria de las plantas y eliminar algunos ejemplares poco desarrollados (173 raíces), así como añadir árboles y arbustos al parque que aporten un efecto colorido en diferentes épocas del año.

The reconstruction of the named park began in the fall of 2025. Images of the project were posted in public spaces, showing that a round-shaped pond and various attractions should be installed in the park, however, this should not be done at the expense of reducing the number of plants on the central entrance to the park and the borders of the square, especially at the expense of unjustified cutting down a large number of adult trees: it would be desirable to involve highly qualified specialists in landscaping employed in the city in the discussion of this issue - including soil scientists, environmentalists, and ecologists.
