INTERDISCIPLINARY ENVIRONMENTAL STUDIES IN URBAN PARKS AS A BASIS FOR THEIR SUSTAINABLE MANAGEMENT
Journal Title: Miscellanea Geographica - Regional Studies on Development - Year 2008, Vol 13, Issue
Abstract
The goal of this paper is to present interdisciplinary environmental studies in urban park. Simple measures are proposed here for evaluating the status of vegetation and its habitat. When systematically applied, these measures could be a basis for sustainable management of the park greenery. Studies performed in Skaryszewski Park in Warsaw are as an example. Studies confirmed the assumption that simple and relatively cheap field and laboratory methods could be a good basis for recognising the status of plant habitats in parks.
