Ecological Stability and Landscape Functionality Assessment in Moravia

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

The chapter presents the results of the ecological stability and landscape functionality assessment in several case studies that represent three landscape types from Moravia, Czech Republic. These landscape types (LT) are alluvial forested, hilly agricultural and upland meadow forested. Ecological stability was attributed to individual landscape elements according to six levels of significance. Mean functionality was calculated based on the structural indices of the landscape elements and then categorized into five functional levels. The results show that landscapes with higher ecological stability as well as mean functionality occur mainly in the upland meadow forested LT. Alluvial forested LT have a higher ecological stability but a lower mean functionality than hilly agricultural LT. Landscape elements with very high and high landscape functionality cover large parts of both forested LT. In hilly agricultural LT landscape elements with a very low functionality dominate spatially. In terms of the six functional groups, namely connecting and dissecting corridors, valuable, disturbed and artificial matrix and stepping stones, the highest values of mean functionality were typical for valuable matrix in both hilly agricultural and upland meadow forested LT where ecological stability was usually of a medium degree. The lowest mean functionality was calculated for stepping stones and disturbed matrix. The ecological stability of these functional groups had a low degree. In the case of alluvial forested LT the highest mean functionality was found in connecting corridors with a low to medium ecological stability. Landscape elements with a high to very high mean functionality belonging to valuable matrix in both forested LT dominate spatially. in the case of hilly agricultural LT, the largest area is covered by landscape elements from disturbed matrix with a very low mean functionality.
