| Summary: | The difference between «landscape ecology» and
«applied landscape ecology» is the path taken between research work and practical application. Therefore applied landscape ecology includes more than
research and development. It works with scientific findings, modeis, methods, concepts etc. until they are
ready for practical application.The corresponding Steps
are basic research, calibration and Validation, model
design, conceptualisation, decision making, development of models for practical application, pilot application and routine application. Four examples from
the fields of landscape budget, conservation of natural
resources, land use planning and landscape development present current concerns, methodical concepts,
procedures, modeis and typical results of applied landscape ecological research. The various examples are
classified methodically, their content is briefly commented
and illustrated with maps. A look into the
future summarises the basic elements of applied landscape ecological research: functions and processes, pro
blems of probability and heterogeneity, knowledge
based modelling at a high integration level and GIS as
a working instrument. |
