Subject: the aeration mode of the sloping territories of different terrain, for which engineering adaptation measures are needed. Objectives: analyze the patterns of airflow over the sloping areas, affecting the bioclimatic comfort and wind erosion of the landscape. Materials and methods: flow patterns of sloping areas with different characteristics are given and an assessment of the bioclimatic comfort for a person is presented. Geotechnical methods are presented in the solution of problems of wind erosion and stability of slopes of hills and complex relief in the city. Results: the relationship between the relief and the aeration regime of the territory, the dependence of the aerodynamic roughness on their height, the features of the aeration of the slope and hilly relief, the factors influencing the direction and speed of the wind and the methods for studying the aeration mode of the sloping territories are considered. The results of complex studies on slope territories and recommendations for improving design solutions are presented. The issue of wind erosion and bioclimatic comfort of the territory on the slope is considered, regardingthe aeration regime. Conclusions: the possibilities of using geotechnical structures for strengthening slopes using biopositive structures that affect the parameters of aeration and bioclimatic comfort of the environment are demonstrated, which increases the health indicators of the population.
