| Description | This paper deals with the methodological aspects of the fluvial ecosystem definition and its practical delineation in the landscape. Generally this is a floodplain or river landscape which lines the major part of the hydrographical network. In addition to a brief introduction of basic concepts used to define the fluvial ecosystem, the paper presents an overview of the ecosystem perception by the human society and its temporal development. The mechanism of human influence on the fluvial environment is understood as a significant representative of anthropogenically conditioned processes of environmental change, with impact just at the local level (river reach or basin of the small stream). |
