LAND USE CHANGE DYNAMICS IN THE UPPER AND MIDDLE RIVER BASIN OF THE STREI VALLEY

摘要

Land use change assessment is an interdisciplinary approach, and also, a “key factor”?in environmental impact identification caused by anthropogenic activity. In this respect,?cartographic materials from three distinct periods were used which allowed data base?construction and a staged analysis of the land use change taking into consideration the factors which triggered the conversions. On the maps obtained, the rates of change were?calculated and the areas, where the same land use persists for more than 200 years, were?identified.
