The aim is to analyze the regional landscape bases for a carbon polygon creation in the Republic of Dagestan. Materials and methods. The material of the study was maps of landscape and physical-geographical zoning for the Republic of Dagestan. Methods of complex analysis for the typological and regional natural-territorial complexes and remote sensing materials were used. The methods of averaging, interpolation and extrapolation of data and the method of landscape analogies were used for the climatic indicators analysis. Results and discussion. The landscape features of the carbon polygon creation are considered. A map of the carbon polygon location and its experimental key areas is proposed in relation to the physical and geographical regions of the republic, landscapes and meteorological stations. Conclusions. The creation of a carbonic polygon and a network of its experimental sites should be based on the regional landscape features of the territory in the Republic of Dagestan.
