Abstract

: Promjene u načinu korištenja zemljišta i zemljišnog pokrova vidljiv su pokazatelj
interakcije prirode i društva, a posebno su izražene tijekom društveno-gospodarskih
promjena na nekom prostoru. Analizom statističkih podataka i relevantne literature, utvrđene
su značajne promjene u socio-ekonomskoj strukturi i broju stanovnika Dubrovačkoneretvanske županije. Posljednjih pedeset godina udio stanovnika zaposlenih u primarnim
djelatnostima konstantno se smanjuje dok udio zaposlenih u tercijarnim djelatnostima raste.
Na razini same županije zabilježen je porast broja stanovnika, no porast je, kao i sama
naseljenost županije, neravnomjerno raspoređen na njenom teritoriju. Većina gradova i većih
naselja bilježe porast broja stanovnika, a ruralna područja s manjim naseljima bilježe
suprotne trendove. Za analizu promjena u načinu korištenja zemljišta i zemljišnog pokrova
korištena je CORINE baza podataka. Među mnogo zabilježenih promjena ističu se: 1)
promjene poljoprivrednog zemljišta u grmoliku i travnu vegetaciju kao posljedica napuštanja
poljoprivrede, 2) promjene grmolike vegetacije i travne vegetacije u šume zbog prirodne
sukcesije vegetacije te 3) povećanje udjela umjetnih površina zbog antropogenih utjecaja,
posebice u obalnim naseljima.

Abstract (english)

Land use and land cover changes are an observable indicator of the interaction
between nature and society. This is especially noticeable during changes in socio-economic
systems in a certain area. After a thorough analysis of statistical data and available literature,
it has been concluded that Dubrovnik-Neretva County underwent a great socio-economic
transformation as well as notable change in population. During the last fifty years, the number
of employees in primary sector has been steadily decreasing while number of employees
working in the tertiary sector has been growing. Even though the County experienced
population growth, that growth is distributed unevenly. The population increases in most of the
cities and larger settlements but decreases in rural areas. Land use and land cover changes were
analysed using a database from the CORINE Land Cover programme. Among plenty of
registered changes, a few of them stand out: 1) changes from agricultural land to grassland as
a result of deagrarization, 2) changes of grassland to forests due to succession of natural
vegetation and 3) increase of artificial areas because of intense anthropological effects,
particularly in coastal settlements.
