Description
Summary:The paper deals with the changes of vegetation on karstic landforms, with special regard to doline vegetation. The role of vegetation is very important in the karstecosystem, due to reducing the amount of runoff on the surface, ensuring the balanced infiltration of water into the karst system and increasing the quantity of aggressive carbon-dioxide in the soil. Dolines are the main sites of intensive infiltration of water into the karsts. My study evaluates the changes of vegetation in the last 70 years and diagnoses the degradation of doline vegetation.
