Carpathian Wetland Handbook

January 9, 2020

Wetlands  are  important  in  terms of  their biodiversity  and need  of  protection,  but  are  one  of  the  most threatened  habitats  in  all  of  Europe.  Wetland  habitats  are  important  because  of  their  site  typical biodiversity, which depends on  a functioning hydrological regime.  While not generally species  rich,  these habitats support characteristic species and communities, adapted  to  the specific site conditions. Many of these species and habitats are officially classified as threatened. The conservation status of wetland Natura 2000  habitats  in  the  Carpathians  in  the  2007  report  (www.cdr.eionet.eu)  is  generally  unfavourable (Galvánek & Kadlečík 2014). Wetlands in the Carpathians are usually small scale and threatened by human activities as cessation of traditional management practices, intensive grazing and anthropogenic changes to hydrology.

In order  to  raise  awareness of the value of these ecosystems, aurhors have prepared an overview of the most important wetlands of the Carpathians, their vegetation description and distribution in orographical units.
