Prostorske analize v kmetijstvu vse bolj pridobivajo na pomenu, tako v svetu kot pri nas, saj omogočajo hiter in učinkovit prostorski prikaz dinamičnih procesov v kmetijskem prostoru. To je pomembno ...pri pripravi prostorskih aktov na nacionalni in lokalni ravni ter oblikovanju kmetijskih ukrepov in zakonodaje. Kakovostni prostorski podatki in posredno prostorske informacije so temeljna podlaga v procesu prostorskega načrtovanja, katerega pomemben segment je kmetijski prostor. V prispevku sta prikazani ustreznost in dejanska uporabnost obstoječih prostorskih podatkovnih baz na primeru podatkov o rabi zemljišč kmetijskega ministrstva za namene spremljanja spremembe rabe zemljišč in prostorskih analiz v slovenskem kmetijstvu. Prednosti in nekatere omejitve baz prostorskih podatkov, s poudarkom na evidenci dejanske rabe kmetijskih in gozdnih zemljišč, so prikazane na primeru prostorske analize rabe in spremembe rabe kmetijskih zemljišč z uporabo metode prehodnih matrik na območju Krajinskega parka Ljubljansko barje ; Spatial analysis in agriculture is gaining in importance, as it allows the rapid and effective spatial display of dynamic processes in agricultural areas. This is important in the preparation of spatial plans at the national and local levels and the creation of agricultural measures and legislation. High-quality spatial data and spatial information indirectly represent a fundamental basis in the planning process, in which the agricultural sector represents an important segment. This article highlights the relevance and usefulness of the Slovenian spatial databases for the case of the land cover database at the Ministry of Agriculture for the purpose of land use change analysis and spatial analysis in Slovenian agriculture. The advantages and some limitations of spatial databases, with the emphasis on the evidence of actual agricultural and forest land use, are displayed based on the analysis of actual land use and land use changes with the use of the transition matrix method, within the Ljubljansko barje landscape park.
Changes of past and present environment of Slovenia are discussed in nine papers, which were written by 21 authors, coming from 14 research organisations. Our aim is to increase multidisciplinary ...communication and cooperation between Slovenian researchers, working in the fields of palaeoecology and ecology. Research topics include: archaeozoology, biology, ecology, geoarchaeology, palynology, nature protection, dendrochronology, archaeobotany, geochemistry, Karst research and geography.
Slovenia is endangered by floods. Frequent intensive rainfall and heavy rains, a large proportion of mountainous and hilly regions, and numerous populated narrow valley bottoms are the primary ...reasons for this threat. Floods endanger about seventy thousand hectares of lowlands, and torrential flooding endangers a further three thousand hectares. Due to this enormous threat, Slovenia has more than one hundred years of experience in the field of flood prevention, while only more recently has the awareness developed in the European Union that flood prevention is cheaper in the long run than simply dealing with the consequences of floods. This fact is reflected in the increasing number of laws passed to deal with this danger, and for this purpose maps of flood hazard and flood risk are very important and are presented in the book.
Agricultural terraces are the predominant landscape element in the Goriška brda region. These were once made by hand, but started being built mechanically after the Second World War. Reshaping slopes ...into terraces increases the amount of arable farmland. Farming, especially cultivation of vineyards and orchards, is still the most important industry in this region. The development of winegrowing has indelibly marked the image of the cultural landscape here.Terraces are mostly being abandoned in regions with market-oriented mechanized farming. Much of the formerly terraced land in upper Goriška brda is now completely overgrown or deteriorated. The former extent of these agricultural terraces cannot even be precisely determined using the land cadastre carried out under Emperor Franz I. In contrast, the agricultural terraces in lower Goriška brda are being constantly renovated.Maintenance of terraces prevents water loss and reduces soil erosion. When the shape of hillsides is changed, large quantities of soil are moved, and steep slopes are altered, this can cause land slippage and large areas can become unstable. Detailed study indicates that Goriška brda is exposed to a high risk of landslides.This study was carried out as part of Interreg project IIIB Alpine Space, titled “The Terraced Landscapes of the Alpine Arc” (ALPTER).
Since Slovenia's independence, new economic and social policies have been influencing settlement patterns. Processes which had in fact begun earlier have intensified and deepened during this period, ...and differences within the country have become greater. The findings from this study could help support a more active land use policy and achieve a better understanding of the structure of built areas within rural settlements.
The article describes the land use change as an important cause of planetarian ecological state. If land use patterns are aggravated the losses must be compensated. The proportion of the ...compensationsreduces with distance. The author proposes various schemes of compensations regarding the level of importance of the land use change. Local, regional, state, continental or planetarian levels have different obligations to level the negative impacts of land use changes.
V prispevku so predstavljeni rezultati raziskave vrednotenja kmetijstva in njegove okoljske vloge s poudarkom na obsegu in vrstah kmetijskega obremenjevanja ter perspektivi kmetijstva na širšem ...območju Ljubljane. Pokrajinska heterogenost občine pomembno vpliva na usmeritev in funkcije kmetijstva, sedanjo in bodočo rabo zemljišč. Število aktivnih kmetij se je v zadnjem desetletju pomembno zmanjšalo, njihovo upadanje pa se postopoma umirja. Od trenutno 600 aktivnih kmetij je pričakovati, da se bo njihovo število znižalo še za 20 do 30 %, spremenila pa se bo njihova struktura in velikost.
From the viewpoints of regional and agrarian geography and regional planning the author systematically analyze all main natural features and many regional social factors of the municipality of ...Moravče: bedrock, type of relief, altitude, inclination, water conditions (including flood conditions), climate conditions (particularly insolation), soil and vegetation, land use, population, settlements, and economy. On the basis of the analysis, a detailed partition of the municipality into small homogenous units is made, three in the valley and four in the hills. The book also deals with the evaluation of the landscape from the viewpoint of individual types of agricultural land use~determines the suitability of areas for cultivated fields, meadows, and orchards~and considers the quality of locations from the viewpoint of settlement. The book concludes with recommendations for the most suitable land use and a survey of the current irrational use of land.The synthetic maps and theme maps showing individual natural factors can be used to advantage in regional planning. Emphasis is placed on determining the interdependence of landscape factors and their joint influences, on the laws and causes governing individual phenomena, and on the comparison of microregions.
Na glavnih območjih dinarskega krasa, na Krasu, jadranskih otokih in nizkih ravnikih ob dalmatinski obali prevladujeta tipično sredozemska raba tal, ki povzroča tudi spreminjanje površja, npr. ...krčenje gozda in urejanje kraškega površja za kmetijstvo, gradnja suhih zidov in terasiranih pobočjih ter pridobivanje kmetijskih zemljišč v dnu vrtač, uval in dolcev. Avtor v prispevku primerja kraško površje na Krasu in v Dalmaciji z drugimi kraškimi pokrajinami (Provansa, Causses in Puglia). Primerjave nam omogočajo boljši vpogled v značilnosti in funkcioniranje dinarskega krasa, predvsem razvoj kraške pokrajine, rast škrapljišč ter geomorfološke in hidrološke spremembe v kraških poljih.
