Abstract

Having investigated the impacts of changes on the landscapes caused by the nature and the society, it can be stated that on karstic landscapes – which are very sensitive ecological indicators – very negative, moreover irreversible processes take place: anthropogeneous and naturalanthropogeneous processes result considerable degradation. These processes are especially dominant in China, where agricultural activities, deforestation, enlarging of settlements, demands on building materials and increasing landscape loading caused by the tourism result considerable landscape degradation. First of all the great population density and, as its consequence, the increasing demand for the land utilizazion, in addition, the irregularity of this expansion and the priority of the economical growth (surpassing all other factors) and the unsettled attitudes towards landscape protection have crucial importance in landscape degradation. The paper tries to summarize these aspects based on some ’on-the-spot’ investigations.
