Wetland habitats of the Kis-Sárrét 1860–2008 (Körös-Maros National Park, Hungary)

Abstract: The manuscript presents maps of internationally important wetlands located in the Kis-Sárrét (Hungary) from 1860 to 2008. The study area is located in south-east Hungary, in the Körös-Maros National Park and covers 8048 ha. For the historic map review, we used digitized data of topographic maps from the period of two military surveys and the Second World War. We also made habitat maps of the area in 2007 and 2008. Data processing, and the establishment of a database of the mapped area, was made using QuantumGI… Show more

“…Complex patches appear in the deeper areas, mostly characteristic of individual Hungarian habitats [22,41,42], and wet, swampy, marshy, or water-bound vegetation patches appear in the depressions on the site, which [43][44][45] may generally be typical but the position of the ground water table is especially important in the central area of the Carpathian Basin, which leads to the appearance of diverse and species rich vegetation [15,16,45]. Spots from the ÁNÉR-based habitat mapping showed agreement with the remote sensing data, which were also used as controls.…”

“…Hungary is dominated by a moderate climate with marine and Maritime influences and increasing continentality towards the central plain [32][33][34]. Harsh Early Holocene climatic conditions limited tree growth, increased sand accumulation [35,36], and led to the development of a forest-steppe vegetation followed by a subsequent forest decline and niche habitat survival [35,[37][38][39][40] until warmer conditions initiated the Atlantic phase [21,41,42]. Large parts of the Great Hungarian Plain are covered with Quaternary sediments (Fig 2) [43] and Upper Pleistocene loess is characteristic for the hilly margins of the plain, the Mezőfo ¨ld west of the Danube, and the alluvial fans of the basins [44].…”

“…A természetes és természetközeli élőhelyek jelentős részét szántóföldek, legelők, települések és telepített erdők foglalták el. A nagyobb folyók menti mocsárvilág a 19. században induló folyószabályozások következtében szinte teljesen eltűnt (Maltby és Blackwell, 2005;Varga et al, 2013;Uj et al, 2016;Penksza et al, 2012;Deák et al, 2014a). A táj átalakulása a 20. században is folytatódott, s Közép-és Kelet-Európában szorosan kapcsolódott a mezőgazdaság kollektivizálásához és a nagyüzemi termelés kiterjesztéséhez (Baessler és Klotz, 2006;Feranec et al, 2007).…”
