Assessment of landscape functionality changes as one aspect of reclamation quality - the case of Velká podkrusnohorská dump, Czech Republic

Original language description

Spatial patterns of surface temperature and a wetness index, from remote sensing data, and surface-water conductivity from field monitoring, were used in an evaluation of landscape function of an area of spoil heap restoration from opencast brown coal mining. LANDSAT scenes were used for the surface temperature and wetness index calculation. Conductivity was measured in the surface waters discharged from the dump restored area. All parameters were transformed to a final synthetic raster layer which reflected the quality of landscape functioning. The high wetness and lower temperatures, and low conductivity, indicate better functioning landscape segments and areas that are stabilized. Areas displaying low wetness, high temperatures and high water conductivity belong to landscape segments that are disturbed and represent localities at risk. This approach was applied to a large dump area (Velká podkruˇsnohorská dump, NW Czech Republic) to determine landscape functionality at various phase
