Abstract

Močvare su staništa čija široka definicija rezultira obuhvatom brojnih područja raznih karakteristika. Prema definiciji Ramsarske konvencije, ta su područja močvare u užem smislu, cretovi, tresetišta ili vode, prirodne ili umjetne, stalne ili povremene, sa stajaćom ili tekućom vodom, slatkom, bočatom ili slanom, a uključuju i područja morske vode duboke do šest metara za vrijeme oseke. Močvarna su staništa široko rasprostranjena u svijetu, a zbog brojnosti i važnosti njihovih funkcija, te sve izraženijom ugroženošću antropogenim djelovanjem, zaštićena su brojnim konvencijama i sporazumima, od kojih je najvažnija Ramsarska konvencija. Na Ramsarskom se popisu močvarnih staništa od međunarodne važnosti nalazi pet područja u Republici Hrvatskoj. Osim njih, na teritoriju Hrvatske nalazi se oko 3800 močvarnih područja koja su identificirana i kartirana projektom inventarizacije močvarnih staništa.

Abstract (english)

Wetlands are habitats whose broad definition results in the inclusion of numerous areas with various characteristics. According to the Ramsar Convention, these are areas of marsh, fen, peatland or water, whether natural or artificial, permanent or temporary, with water that is static or flowing, fresh, brackish or salt, including areas of marine water the depth of which at low tide does not exceed six metres. Wetland habitats are widespread in the world, and due to the abundance and importance of their functions, as well as the increasingly pronounced vulnerability due to anthropogenic activity, they are protected by numerous conventions and agreements, most notably the Ramsar Convention. The Ramsar List of Wetlands of International Importance includes 5 areas in the Republic of Croatia. In addition, there are around 3800 wetland areas in the territory of Croatia that have been identified and mapped through the project of inventorisation of wetland habitats.
