Sažetak
The landscape is a dynamic structure made of interactive systems ; a complex entity consisting of natural as well as anthropogenic processes that take place in it and that can only be studied using methods of different disciplines. The ecological problems, such as habitat fragmentation, natural reserves preservation, resources management and human habitat degradation caused by increasing needs of urbanization and more prominent climate change, must be solved in order to achieve the sustainable development goals. It is possible through the application of the landscape ecology principles within landscape planning procedure. However, landscape ecology and landscape planning are still developing as separate scientific disciplines. Therefore, despite the fact that the applicable concepts for implementation of landscape ecology principles into the planning process in the world are developed by landscape planning, currently they are not applied in Croatian spatial planning system. The aim of the paper is to indicate that the landscape ecology and the landscape planning are closely linked interdisciplinary landscape research approaches dealing with interrelations between natural and anthropogenic processes in spatial and temporal context. Landscape planning is a procedure that, by overlapping the development planning and the existing spatial values, determines conflicts and provides optimized solutions based on harmonized developmental and conservational interests. It also generates specific foresights of landscape function changes that have considered interactions between human activities and natural processes. Landscape ecology in turn provides the scientific basis for these foresights. The purpose of identifying and understanding the function of the landscape is a basis for protection of landscape qualities within a planning process. So this paper points to application possibilities of landscape ecology analysis and principles within landscape planning procedure as a part of spatial planning process. Such approach is aimed to resolve the conflicts that can cause ecological problems. The representative examples are presented in adequate map scale for specific spatial heterogeneity using the software programs QGIS, ArcMap, ProVal and AutoCAD.
