Landscape, memory and historical sources

Original language description

Landscape memory is a very common term today and its usage is various. The term is usually connected with social sciences as ability of organisms to save and use information about previous experience. One of the possible explanations is a memory as composition of biotic and abiotic components. Even in this situation the information is the main term. The saved information here is the result of landscape history and particular place. Land changes in the past determine the nowadays-local basic characteristics. Each change creates and saves this information. Afterwards they influence possibilities of particular place and limit its usability. Landscape memory is comparable to the mechanical system that reacts to stimuli term from external environment without changing inner organization. This information is written down as a palimpsest with the whole history of the place. The specific place,,remembers" the history and the present, tolerates only specific land use and returns landscape to the previous conditions or trends after the wrong usage. Suitable land use provides a good basis for ecosystem services. The example could be meandering and subsequent straightening of rivers, deforestation, relocation and change in soil layers. These changes in the past affected the present management and it is important to identify them. We can use these archival materials: the maps of the 2nd and 3rd (II and III) military mapping, basic maps and other maps and historical aerial photographs. Landscape memory is needed to be respected during the landscape planning and we have to learn the landscape history, the saved information and the memory of particular place thoroughly.
