Estimation of landscape anthropic modification level. Case study: Ciulucurilor hills

This paper presents some aspects of assessing the level of anthropogenic landscape modification in the Ciulucurilor Hills by analyzing the degree of soil erosion (Vinogradov, 1998) and the ratio of forests surface to agricultural land and the built area<br />(Manea, 2001; Armas, Manea, 2002)....

Description
Summary:This paper presents some aspects of assessing the level of anthropogenic landscape modification in the Ciulucurilor Hills by analyzing the degree of soil erosion (Vinogradov, 1998) and the ratio of forests surface to agricultural land and the built area<br />(Manea, 2001; Armas, Manea, 2002). The obtained results by the method of Vinogradov show a ratio of 72.68% of landscapes with high degradation level assigned to disaster and crisis, and, according to the results obtained by the method of Armas and Manea, landscapes with strong and very strong affected ecological balance represent 77.23 %.
