Principles of setting TSES
- Criterion of differences of potential ecosystem
- Criterion of space relations of potential ecosystems
- Criterion necessary space parameters
- Criterion of recent conditions of a landscape
- Criterion social limits and goals
Landscape classification definition
Landscape classification is a methodological approach used to define spatial landscape units
providing with a generalized information based on selected criteria.
What is a biogeography?
Landscape classification based on the basic
ecological settings
Why is Landscape Connectivity important?
When connectivity is lost, habitat become
fragmented.
Species can not prosper
What is Interactive Elements
Small areas of patches or plots spatially isolated. These provide positive conditions for some plants and animals that affect the function of ecosystems in the landscape.
Examples of interactive elements:
Trees along paths and roads, Meadows Extensive orchards Small woody patches Medgerows Solitiares
Three network types:
- Greenways
- Geoecological
- Bioecological networks

Landscape definition
The total character of a place of the earth
reasons for distinguishes patterns
- Shape - form and size are key components
- Processes - pattern influences information and energy through a landscape
Scale
spatial proportion of that mapped area
Grain
crossness of elements within the area
Extent
The total mapped out area
