Five military training areas - five different trajectories of land cover development? Case studies from the Czech Republic
Original language description
The paper focuses on land cover development in five military training areas (MTAs) in the Czech Republic during the past 180 years and tries to find answers to causes of similarities or differences of this development. Land cover development was researched on the basis of old military topographic maps and aerial photographs. The results show that there are two groups of MTAs that show similarities in land cover development up to the 1960s. These are Brezina and Brdy, and Hradiste and Libava. In the first group, woody vegetation dominated while in the second group open landscape was prevalent. Also the first group was characterized by little population and establishment of military camps already in the 1920s-1930s while the second group was characterized by rather dense population and similar environmental conditions. All MTAs experienced drop of population after WWII which resulted in drop of built-up area and open landscape and increase in woody vegetation area. With the optimisation of MTAs the parts where intensive military training occurs will likely stay preserved while the rest of the areas will be used for ecological agriculture or so called soft tourism.
