Anthropogenic pressure in Czech protected areas over the last 60 years
An ecological network for large carnivores as a key tool for protecting landscape connectivity in the Carpathians
The main aim of our study was to delineate a coherent ecological network for large carnivores, using a unified methodology, which would be flexible and serve as a basis for nature and habitat connectivity protection across the Carpathians. We applied a comprehensive methodological approach based on habitat suitability modelling followed by connectivity modelling. For the habitat suitability modelling, we used a robust set of large carnivores occu…
Prioritization of spatial protection of Šumava National Park, Czechia
Natural processes and biodiversity are under pressure, especially in the human-dominated region of Central Europe. Therefore, an effective approach is needed for the conservation of the last fragments of valuable habitats. Šumava National Park is one of the biggest relatively natural forested areas within the cultural landscapes of Czechia and Central Europe. It has been protected since 1991 as a National Park, but management has been changed sev…
Global environmental systems – multivariate anthropoecological classification
Changes to the Earth's environment, increasing anthropogenic pressure, and the global decline of biodiversity bring the need to establish spatial frameworks for the monitoring and assessment of such dynamic processes. Several environmental stratifications have been developed at the global level; however, most of them only include natural conditions in the classification process. Incorporating spatial patterns of biodiversity and the degree of ant…
Long time-series ecological niche modelling using archaeological settlement data
Human activities have shaped the environment since long before the advent of agriculture and resulted in anthropogenic landscapes, which are sometimes perceived as natural, but are clearly shaped by dozens of previous generations. This study is the first to apply ecological niche modelling on a long time-series of archaeological data to illuminate the development of the landscape from the perspective of settlement behaviour and its dependence on …
At the end of the world? Settlement in the Šumava mountains and foothills in later prehistory
The aim of this paper is to explore and define the boundary of the zone of inland, mainly agricultural settlement in southern and western Bohemia, Czech Republic in the later prehistory, and to try to determine why such settlement appears not to have spread further into the Šumava foothills and mountains. With the help of predictive MaxEnt modelling – used in ecology to determine the degree of uncertainty in the geographic distribution of species…
Potential risk of occurrence of Phytophthora alni in forests of the Czech Republic
Phytophthora alni is an invasive organism that causes root and collar rot in alders, which significantly damages the forest and riparian vegetation of alder trees in Central and Western Europe. In the Czech Republic, this pathogen was first confirmed in 2001, and since then it has been gradually spreading from the west to the east. Here, we applied a model of potential distribution that estimates the level and spatial variability of the pathogen …
