Opportunities and Constraints for Implementation of Green Infrastructure Network – The Research on Mediterranean Historical Towns in Croatia
Research on changes of the urban forms, spatial edges and their relationship to the surrounding landscape can specify and direct the future development in urban areas. Therefore this paper emphasizes the basic analysis for overcoming the possible constraints in development of Green Infrastructure (GI) network. The case study of Mediterranean towns in Croatia has indicated different natural and social features during historical development which have influenced the development of GI (Hrdalo, 2013). These characteristics (ancient roman division of agricultural land, visible in structural division of urban and landscape areas ; human behaviour connected to the historical usage, which is connected to the preservation of some present green areas – woodlands used for the picnic areas...) are vulnerable to changes and without proper analytical approach and management they can be easily erased. So, this paper indicates the possibilities for transforming the constraints of historic conservation into the opportunities for future development of GI network within the Mediterranean towns. The historical layers under the urban surface (water features canalized under the town streets connected to the riparian landscapes in the region) need to be explored and in order to preserve the material and non material heritage and to revaluate its ecological and historical value. Even though ecological investigations usually deal with its connectivity, stepping stones model can occur as a problem in GI implementation (Gazvoda, 1999 ; Moughtin and Shirley, 2005). Distances between patches are important issue but must be associated to the specific regional and natural character to achieve an effective implementation of GI as a model of sustainable urban and regional development. Their distance should be analysed, not only for wildlife functions but as a possible social usage in order to develop sustainable urban and regional development.
