CONTINENTAL SALT LAND HABITATS CONSERVATION STATE RELATED TO NATURA 2000 SITES. RO SCI 0221 ILEANA VALLEY APPLICATION, IAŞI COUNTY
Journal Title: Present Environment and Sustainable Development - Year 2012, Vol 6, Issue 2
Abstract
. The quantification of conservation state for certain priority habitats as those represented by the continental saline soils at Ileana Valley, in Iaşi municipality vicinity, constitutes a present necessity in the frame of the efforts undertaken for biodiversity conservation. The designation of Natura 2000 sites can not remain at the stage of territorial percentages and limits that are more ore less relevantly drawn. The approach based on representative classes and habitats’ fragmentation indices may lead to a more precise estimation of the conservation state and of the ecosystems’ functionality. The finality consists in the adaptation of certain automatic classification techniques for land use and habitat conservation and their correlation with phytosociological studies, in a GIS environment, in order to enhance a more rapid and less costly monitoring for the evaluation the state of protected areas in relation with various disturbance factors
