Rapid industrialization and excessive consumption bring about very serious environmental problems. Increasing environmental problems cause serious risks and problems on forest areas and sensitive ecosystems on a local or global scale. The aim of this study is to determine the land and environmental characteristics of the Meydanköy boxwood forests in Fırtına creek located in the Northeast Anatolian geography, which is defined as one of the 200 important ecological regions around the world, and to reveal the interaction between the boxwood forest ecosystem. The analysis of the data belonging to the land characteristics of the research area (slope, elevation, bedrock, stand characteristics, drainage network, etc.) was carried out using Google Earth Pro and ArcGIS 10.5 software. It has been determined that the research area is 20 km away from the Çamlıhemşin district center in the Fırtına valley, its approximate area is 3,70 ha and the entire boxwood ecosystem is within the 1st degree protected area, and approximately 75-80 % of this area is within the Kaçkar Mountains National Park. It has been determined that the research area is on the valley floor and approximately 75% of it is on shady views, and a road with a high traffic density passes right in the middle of the boxwood ecosystem. Establishing a use and management model that complies with the conservationuse principle and includes some of its limitations, removing some alder trees within the ecosystem from the area, changing the road route through the area and taking them out of the area may be beneficial for increasing the health of the boxwood ecosystem and its sustainable management.
