| Tartalmi kivonat: | Before the river regulations of the 19th century the landscape around Hódmezővásárhely was basically determined by waters, large bodies of reeds, and higher grounds like pastures and fields. It consisted of relatively homogeneous hydrological units which established the ground for the diverse cultivation on the flood plains. The area has been suitable for people to settle down since the Neolithic era. Nature has supported the livelihood of these people and the diverse landscape also guaranteed their protection. By the end of the 19"' centuiy the partial or complete separation of the final recipient of the river system by dikes has accelerated the transformation of the hydrographically divided landscape. In today's flood plain surrounded by dikes the ecological water demand is of essential interest for nature conservation. At the same time in the flood-controlled areas the different types of groundwater appearing on the surface cannot reach the recipients and thus occasionally cause floods, while droughts can also persist in the area for longer periods. There is a need for a comprehensive development concept handling the artificially divided landscape as one unit; one which aims a complex development of the former hydrological unit, and serves as means of flood and groundwater security, furthermore facilitates the preservation and maintenance of natural systems. |
