Water in the landscape as an indicator of changes in the Elbe River lowlands
Original language description
The focus of this paper is work to map the development of lowland landscape over last 180 years,related to pressures to use lowland areas for economic purposes including transformation of thewetland habitats, watercourse and water body parts of the landscape into arable land. The Elbe Riverbasin was chosen as the study area because it is currently affected by a lack of water and there is anoccurrence of seasonal drying up of small watercourses. This issue will probably be of greatersignificance in the future particularly in the context of the expected continued extreme climaticphenomena. Therefore, emphasis is placed on the analysis of changes in wetland habitats,watercourses and water bodies based on a comparison of archive maps and current data. Thepurpose of the study is to use the results as a proposed solution to current and future watermanagement problems. These results can be used for example, for the restoration or revitalization ofthese landscape (water retention) elements in landscape planning. Moreover, there is an emphasisto highlight the importance of water retention elements in landscape in context of historical andsociocultural development.
