Identification of nature conservation value of woodlands using landscape criteria
Journal Title: Лісівництво і агролісомеліорація - Year 2013, Vol 123, Issue
Abstract
Methodological approach for the identification of nature conservation value of woodlands according to the system of landscape criteria (naturalness, uniqueness, landscape diversity, representativeness, cultural importance) adopted on the national and international levels was examined on the example of landscape-territorial complex of woodland managed by forestry enterprise. There was founded that the investigated landscape-territorial complex according to its structure is typical for Southern Steppe and Forest zone of Ukraine and representative for one of its forestry district – Kharkiv Steppe and Forest district with oak and linden-oak forests and meadow steppes. Simultaneously, this complex is notable for its landscape diversity on topographic features and ecotopological heterogeneity. According to its naturalness and the extent of anthropogenic transformation, this is conditionally non-transformed landscape complex with the dominance of natural elements and only a few numbers of anthropogenic elements. It causes the overall compactness of its natural structure under the inconsiderable anthropogenic fragmentation of the territory. This landscape-territorial complex has regional nature conservation value identified on the basis of criteria set. The area of this woodland is quite enough to establish such forest reserves of regional importance accepted in Ukraine as natural monument, reserved forest district, partial forest reserve or landscape partial reserve.
