RT Journal Article SR Electronic A1 Podhrázská, Jana T1 A metod for evaluation of the shelterbelts as a material for determination of thein efficiency JF Acta Universitatis Agriculturae et Silviculturae Mendelianae Brunensis YR 2014 VO 55 IS 5 SP 123 OP 130 DO 10.11118/actaun200755050123 UL https://acta.mendelu.cz/artkey/acu-200705-0016.php AB This contribution presents the method of evaluation of the shelter-belts by using the referential points system. This method is based on evaluation the main characteristics of shelter-belts. There were evaluated the parameters of single shelter-belts, as well as their integration to the ecological network of the landscape. By this there was created the points system, which makes into account the age, height, width, length and gaps of the shelter-belt. In evaluation of the network (space layout) of shelterbelts threw were evaluated parameters of distance, relation to the systems of ecological stability and the integration to the geomorphology of the landscape. The result is the tabulation of shelter-belts in the scale 1-12 for the singular shelterbelts and 1-9 for their space layout. The value scale of the criteria is 1-3. By these criteria it is possible to place the shelterbelts into 3 groups according their functionality. This points system enables the evaluation of the shelterbelts and it makes easier the decisions how and why to reconstruct or make up them.
