Landscape as dynamic living system
Pokorný, Jan
Holistic approach to landscape understanding in terms of solar energy dissipation, water and matter fluxes is dealt with. Measures of landscape functioning are defined. Floods and drought as consequences of anthropogenic impact are explained and strategy of sustainable landscape management formulated.

Role of short water cycle in restoration of ecological functions of landscape
Pokorný, Jan
Fluxes of matter, water and energy are the principle ecological functions of landscape. Open cast mining deteriorated and changed these fluxes since it directly dealt with large surfaces of landscape. The restoration strategy of large landscape surfaces should be aimed at restoration of short water cycle, i.e. restoration of large stands of vegetation in order to close again water cycle and to buffer heat potential in landscape, to close matter cycles and reduce matter losses from landscape.
