Manor gardens: Harbors of local natural habitats?

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

Historical gardens established around manors form an integral part of the European cultural landscape. Recent studies have revealed that manor gardens may serve as local hotspots of biodiversity and provide cultural ecosystem services within urban areas as well as in rural landscapes. As a consequence of dramatic land-use changes in recent centuries, followed by significant loss and degradation of natural habitats, manor gardens often serve as harbors for organisms within the cultural landscape. Using CORINE land cover data for the Czech Republic, the relation between natural habitats in manor gardens and the surrounding landscape in dependence on anthropogenic impact was defined. We randomly selected 98 manor gardens, followed by a grid overlay of data from the national natural habitats mapping system. Proportions of natural habitats were calculated for each garden in relation to the surrounding landscape. The results confirmed that manor gardens, compared with the surrounding landscape, contain an important proportion of natural habitats, especially in areas with a high level of human impact. The significantly high proportion of natural habitats in manor gardens was found mainly for beech forests and for secondary semi-natural grasslands, especially mesic and montane meadows. No significant importance was proven for wetland habitats.
