Ecosystem service availability in view of long-term land use changes: a regional case study from the Czech Republic

Original language description

This study aims to analyse how land-use changes influenced the delivery of ecosystem services in Cezava, a South Moravian agricultural region in the Czech Republic, in the period 1845-2010. An observation of this period covering more than 160 years madeit possible to reflect on social forces driving processes of transformation in the country. To capture the landscape multifunctionality and to indicate the environmental quality of the area under study, seven services provided in parallel by arable land,forests and bodies of water were studied. The quantification of ecosystem services is based primarily on the transfer of values from the existing literature and on chronicle reviews and map analysis. Because looking back to the more distant past is a challenge and reliable information resources are lacking, a simple scoring method defining the functional features of the ecosystems was applied in order to evaluate the change of qualitative characteristics o f the observed ecosystems.
