In the Botanic Garden of MSU ecosystem research projects have been conducted along with botanical ones within last 10 years, in particular, regarding soils. Agrochemical properties, were studied as well as morphological structure, soil micro biota and soil fauna. This work allows to perfect the complex approach to environmental studies and to receive important results which can have essential value in studying urban ecosystems and estimation of invasive species influence on native flora, etc. Thus, universities’ botanic gardens should be considered as multipurpose training grounds for students, where they can perfect the complex ecosystem approach to environment studying.
