Możliwości ochrony krajobrazu w dolinie Odry na obszarze projektowanego Lubiąsko - Głogowskiego Parku Krajobrazowego

The landscape of the Odra valley, as we can see now, has been shaped for ages under the influence of some factors for example human activities. This area is being exposed to strong anthropopression and intensely transformed as a result of progressive management. River control, changes in water conditions and excessive exploitation by agriculture and industry have brought natural landscapes in the Odra valley to degradation. The area between Brzeg Dolny and Głogów, the territory of the projected Lubiąsko-Głogowski Landscape Park, is one of the most attractive with regard to its nature and landscape values. Complexes of valuable riparian forests (Salici-Populetum, Ficario-Ulmetum and Galio-Carpinetum)of international importance can be found here. In spite of rich documentation and numerous attempts to create a landscape park on this territory, only a part of it is protected now as Nature 2000 area under the name "Łęgi Odrzańskie". The main task of this article is to show necessity for protection of this area and possibilities for its further evolution on the basis of analyzing the landscape's sensitivity and capacity.
