摘要:Mining activities usually signify a dramatic transformation of landscape structure. Both geodiversity and biodiversity have been completely altered by mining activities. In spite of general land degradation, especially geodiversity of mining landscapes has been often increased in a significant way. Higher substrate and relief heterogeneity results in higher biodiversity. Significant increase in landscape diversity and biodiversity as a result of creation of new habitats due to mining activities is demonstrated on the example of a characteristic historical silver mining landscape in the Central Bohemia.
