Although the topic of trampling alpine vegetation has been addressed by many authors in recent years, there are still unanswered questions. Areas unsuitable for enormous numbers tourists particularly problematic. Such an area is limestone Belianske Tatras, closed to since 1978, with exception a trail that accessible one direction 1993 and both directions 2008 as educational trail. Since renewed discussion about making Tatras tourists, we sought answers hypotheses: (1.) whether regenerated...
Due to the destruction of alpine ecosystems by extreme human trampling, some areas are closed tourists. After years regeneration, a tendency toward reopening these for tourism is envisaged. Although numerous studies have documented vegetative responses trampling disturbance, research that thoroughly examines impacts on vegetation at different organizational levels often limited. Most previous disturbance focused vascular plants, while lichens or mosses less well-documented. To understand how...
Trampling of vegetation as a result recreation can adversely affect natural habitats, leading to loss and degradation plant communities. Many studies indicated that intrinsic properties communities appear be the most important factors determining response trampling disturbance. Specifically, dominant life-form community accounts for more variation in resistance than intensity experienced, suggesting simple assessments based on this trait could guide decisions access sites. We verify these...
