Resumo: | Landscape is a dynamic mosaic of various structures interacting together. Neglecting or
overusing one part of this mosaic may boost up or damage the development of others. For
instance, overgrazing may increase soil erosion process which may clog a river/stream. In
this regard land use changes, climate change and landscape management may lead to
increase the intermittency of the surface watercourses, as well as in the ecosystem services
provided by riverscapes for humans. Therefore, the present research focus on the existing
interactions between the Caia River, an intermittent river located in the Mediterranean
region, and its surrounding agricultural and natural landscapes. The performed analyses
considered the identification of the existing interaction between natural and agricultural
landscapes with the Caia River defining the predictable ecosystem services provided by each
element of the landscape and assessing the potential decrease of the ecosystem services
provided in case of landscape changes, which according to the performed research might
enclose significant impacts both in ecologic and socioeconomic terms. |
