Hydromelioration canals and posibility of its optimalization

Abstract

Hydromelioration channels in lowland areas of north Panonia lowland are outstanding landscape elements, which weren´t given any attention in the post socialistic era. Nowadays there is a need to have them categorized and to plan their further utilization. There are mentioned in the study some others, mostly biotic functions of hydromelioration canals (hydraulic: stabilization of underground water surface, microclimatic: influence on temperature and moisture regime, trofic: impact of organic detritic drift on the main stream, sanitation: elimination of agriculture nutrients, landscape: diversification and connectivity of landscape, production: production of fish and lant matter, genofond: fauna and flora protection, homeostatic: psychosomatic functions, aesthetic: landscape energy). Key words: hydromelioration canals, optimalization of canals, structure and function, biota.
