Major Changes in European Landscapes illustration

1. agricultural intensification coastal lowlands, river lowlands, wetlands, polders, deltas coastal lowlands, river lowlands, wetlands, polders, deltas

A3. polders, Netherlands

2. agricultural marginalization natural factors – soils, climate natural factors – soils, climate social factors – transport, distribution social factors – transport, distribution result: only hobby farming.....secondary succession, more natural ecosystems re-established result: only hobby farming.....secondary succession, more natural ecosystems re-established Intensification and marginalization are connected Intensification and marginalization are connected

Lost But Not Forgotten

3. Urban sprawl Spread of infrastructure consumes considerable space, loss of habitats Spread of infrastructure consumes considerable space, loss of habitats

American spirit?

4. Landscape fragmentation Fragmentation of landscape scenery, historic elements and structures, isolation of ecosystems and animals Fragmentation of landscape scenery, historic elements and structures, isolation of ecosystems and animals

5. Discontinuity Natural Natural Cultural – symbolic Cultural – symbolic

6. New landscapes emerging “new” functions “new” functions landscape as a PET – Nature (Příroda), Ecology, Tourism landscape as a PET – Nature (Příroda), Ecology, Tourism

Emerging trends in European landscapes endogenous natural and human sources are not more important endogenous natural and human sources are not more important global replacement (lost of biodiversity, sustainability, multifunctionality, regional characteristic patterns of agro/eco/system) global replacement (lost of biodiversity, sustainability, multifunctionality, regional characteristic patterns of agro/eco/system) segregation of landscape function, only most profitable local products if any segregation of landscape function, only most profitable local products if any alienation from landscape alienation from landscape spatial and temporal segregation spatial and temporal segregation Unification of landscapes, adaptation for technology not for nature Unification of landscapes, adaptation for technology not for nature from local to global
