B 1.2 Landscape as an ecological reality
TERCUD on Tue Jun 17, 2008 2:59 pm
"The landscape is an ecological reality: between the plants and animals of the biosphere, on one side, and the sun, the atmosphere, and the rocky and liquid components of their environment, on the other, there are constant flows of energy and matter.
These flows are conducive to states of balance: stable ones, as in the case of a climax vegetation ; dynamic ones more frequently. The system they form is able to recycle or stock the matter and energy which results from its functioning: it is normally resilient."
(This is an excerpt from the text by Professor Paul Claval “THE IDEA OF LANDSCAPE”)
