Determining Ecotones by Decision Support Systems

چکیده
The investigation into ecotones enabled a better understanding of the causal relationships between certain landscape elements, landscape utilisation categories and ecotones. By studying ecotones, we wanted to expand understanding of patterns having an influence on the landscape condition, structure, functions, landscape elements and their relationships. For better understanding and modelling of ecotones was applied fuzzy approach. This methodology was afterwards built in expert system. The landscape assessment process based upon an expert system allows for a multidisciplinary view of a landscape. The landscape is evaluated from several perspectives: the ecological stability, soil erosion, retention capacity and economic landscape calculations by designed expert system. These results from expert system were taken into consideration during mapping ecotones. Ecotones may serve as one of the distinctive indicators of the impact humans have on the landscape. It is therefore necessary to develop more sophisticated methods of their studying.
