[hr]Mozai\u010dni mediteranski krajolik nastajao je tijekom tisu\u0107ljetne prisutnosti ljudi i njihova blaga na kr\u0161kom podru\u010dju koje je kombinacija travnjaka, \u0161uma i \u0161ikara i poljoprivrednih povr\u0161ina i naselja<\/strong><\/p>\n

Takav krajolik nije samo estetski vrijedan, ve\u0107 je prirodno otporniji na su\u0161e, po\u017eare i ekstremne vremenske uvjete. Splet je to kulturnog naslje\u0111a i iznimno bogate biolo\u0161ke raznolikosti, koju sve vi\u0161e ugro\u017eava upravo smanjenje opsega tradicionalne poljoprivrede i sto\u010darstva, \u0161to je dovelo do zarastanja travnjaka.<\/p>\n

Upravo ovom jedinstvenom prirodnom naslije\u0111u posve\u0107en je petogodi\u0161nji projekt \u201eMosaic of LIFE\u201c<\/strong>, koji je Udruga Biom pokrenula zajedno s partnerima.<\/p>\n

Tijekom sljede\u0107ih pet godina kroz \u201eMosaic of LIFE\u201c provodit \u0107e se aktivnosti obnove na najmanje 560 hektara travnjaka i pobolj\u0161ati upravljanje na jo\u0161 1 020 hektara. Obnova stani\u0161ta obuhva\u0107a mehani\u010dko uklanjanje drvenaste vegetacije, kontrolirano paljenje pod stru\u010dnim nadzorom i, najva\u017enije, promicanje tradicionalnih praksi ispa\u0161e jer je upravo blago koje je stolje\u0107ima na njemu paslo oblikovalo i odr\u017eavalo ovaj jedinstveni krajolik.<\/p>\n

Osim \u0161to za cilj ima o\u010duvanje ciljnih travnja\u010dkih stani\u0161nih tipova<\/strong> i povezanih vrsta ptica u Splitsko-dalmatinskoj i \u0160ibensko-kninskoj \u017eupaniji, fokus projekta je i na pove\u0107anju broja gnijezde\u0107ih parova<\/strong> \u010detiriju ciljnih vrsta ptica na osam podru\u010dja ekolo\u0161ke mre\u017ee Natura 2000. Istodobno, projekt se usmjerava na o\u010duvanje mozai\u010dnog krajolika i pove\u0107anje njegove otpornosti na klimatske promjene primjenom nature-based solutions<\/em> i promocijom tradicionalnih poljoprivrednih praksi i politika EU koje doprinose rje\u0161avanju postoje\u0107ih izazova.<\/p>\n

Poseban naglasak stavljen je na osna\u017eivanje sto\u010dara, donositelja odluka i ostalih dionika<\/strong> u o\u010duvanju ciljnih travnja\u010dkih stani\u0161ta unutar mre\u017ee Natura 2000 i s njima povezanih vrsta. To \u0107e se posti\u0107i unapre\u0111enjem ekonomske odr\u017eivosti tradicionalne ekstenzivne poljoprivrede i ja\u010danjem otpornosti na klimatske promjene. Kona\u010dno, projekt te\u017ei pove\u0107anju svijesti javnosti o va\u017enosti o\u010duvanja mozai\u010dnog krajolika i ciljnih stani\u0161ta i s njima povezanih vrsta, uz promicanje tradicionalnih poljoprivrednih praksi i politika Europske unije koje doprinose dugoro\u010dnom o\u010duvanju prirode i rje\u0161avanju postoje\u0107ih izazova. O\u010dekuje se da \u0107e ti napori pobolj\u0161ati stanje o\u010duvanosti ciljnih stani\u0161ta i populacija ciljnih vrsta ptica i doprinijeti otpornosti krajolika na klimatske promjene. Mozai\u010dni krajolik, koji kombinira razli\u010dite stani\u0161ne tipove i na\u010dine njihova kori\u0161tenja, pokazuje ve\u0107u prirodnu otpornost na klimatske ekstreme. Stoga \u0107e se u sklopu projekta razviti Preporuke za o\u010duvanje mozai\u010dnosti krajolika<\/em> koje \u0107e biti integrirane u slu\u017ebene planove upravljanja mre\u017eom Natura 2000. Time se osigurava dugoro\u010dna odr\u017eivost rezultata kroz prostorno planiranje i upravljanje zemlji\u0161tem na razini regije.<\/p>\n

Projekt \u201eMosaic of LIFE\u201c fokusiran je na o\u010duvanje \u010detiriju Natura 2000 ciljnih vrsta ptica. To su \u0107ukavica<\/strong> (Burhinus oedicnemus<\/em>), kratkoprsta \u0161eva<\/strong> (Calandrella brachydactyla<\/em>), velika \u0161eva<\/strong> (Melanocorypha calandra<\/em>) i primorska trepteljka<\/strong> (Anthus campestris<\/em>). Kroz provedene mjere o\u010dekuje se znatno pove\u0107anje broja gnijezde\u0107ih parova tih \u010detiriju vrsta ptica i pobolj\u0161anje op\u0107eg stanja o\u010duvanja travnja\u010dkih stani\u0161ta i o njima ovisnih vrsta. Projekt tako\u0111er ima za cilj oja\u010dati gospodarsku odr\u017eivost tradicionalne ekstenzivne ispa\u0161e i pove\u0107ati otpornost lokalnih gospodarstava na klimatske promjene. Mosaic of LIFE tako nastavlja i pro\u0161iruje aktivnosti zapo\u010dete projektom Dinara back to LIFE<\/strong>, prenose\u0107i ste\u010dena znanja i dobre prakse u \u0161iru regiju srednje Dalmacije.<\/p>\n

Uz Udrugu Biom, kao nositelja, u partnerstvo projekta uklju\u010deni su Ekolo\u0161ka udruga \u201eKrka\u201c Knin, Agronomski fakultet Sveu\u010dili\u0161ta u Zagrebu, Nacionalni park Krka i Vatrogasna zajednica Splitsko-dalmatinske \u017eupanije, a pridru\u017eeni partneri su Ministarstvo za\u0161tite okoli\u0161a i zelene tranzicije \u2013 Zavod za za\u0161titu okoli\u0161a i prirode, Ministarstvo poljoprivrede, \u0161umarstva i ribarstva, Javna ustanova More i kr\u0161 i Javna ustanova Priroda \u0160ibensko-kninske \u017eupanije. Cilj je uklju\u010diti i lokalne poljoprivrednike, \u0161umare, sto\u010dare, vatrogasce, planinare, javne institucije i ostalu zainteresiranu javnost, te poticati suradnju i osiguravati kontinuitet aktivnosti obnove i nakon zavr\u0161etka projekta.<\/p>\n

Projektom \u201e<\/strong>Mosaic of LIFE\u201c<\/strong>\u00a0\u017eelimo pokazati da o\u010duvanje prirode mo\u017ee biti u ravnote\u017ei s ljudskim aktivnostima. Tradicionalna ispa\u0161a, koja je stolje\u0107ima oblikovala ovaj krajolik, sada postaje alat njegove obnove i o\u010duvanja.<\/p>\n

\nThe Mosaic of LIFE: Habitat restoration and conservation of grassland bird species across the mosaic of the Mediterranean landscape<\/strong><\/p>\n

The mosaic of the Mediterranean landscape was created by the millennial presence of people and their domestic animals in the karst area, which is a combination of grasslands, forests, maquis, agricultural areas, and settlements<\/strong><\/p>\n

Such a landscape is not only aesthetically valuable, but is also naturally more resistant to droughts, fires, and extreme weather conditions. It is a combination of the cultural heritage and a region of an exceptionally rich biodiversity, which is increasingly threatened by the reduction in the extent of traditional farming and livestock breeding, which has led to the overgrowth of grasslands.<\/p>\n

The five-year project ”The Mosaic of LIFE”<\/strong>, launched by the Biom Association together with partners, is dedicated to this unique natural heritage.<\/p>\n

Over the next five years, through the ”Mosaic of LIFE”, we will carry out restoration activities of at least 560 hectares of grassland and improve the management of an additional 1,020 hectares. Habitat restoration includes the mechanical removal of woody vegetation, controlled burning under expert supervision, and, most importantly, the promotion of traditional grazing practices, as it is in fact the stock that has shaped and maintained this unique landscape for centuries.<\/p>\n

In addition to the aim of conserving targeted grassland habitat types and associated bird species in the Split-Dalmatia and \u0160ibenik-Knin counties, the focus is also on increasing the number of breeding pairs of four targeted bird species within the 8 ecological network areas of Natura 2000. At the same time, the project focuses on preserving the mosaic-type landscape and increasing its resistance to climate change by applying nature-based solutions, and promoting traditional agricultural practices and EU policies that contribute to solving existing challenges.<\/p>\n

Special emphasis is placed on empowering livestock farmers, decision-makers and other contributors in the conservation of the targeted grassland habitats within the Natura 2000 network and the species associated with them. This will be achieved by improving the economic sustainability of traditional extensive agriculture and strengthening resistance to climate change. Finally, the project aims to raise public awareness of the importance of conserving the mosaic landscape, target habitats, and associated species, while promoting traditional agricultural practices and EU policies that contribute to long-term nature conservation and the solution of existing challenges. These efforts are expected to improve the conservation status of the target habitats and the target bird species populations, and contribute to the resistance of the landscape to climate change. The mosaic landscape, which combines different habitat types and their uses, exxhibits a greater natural resilience to climate extremes. Therefore, the project will develop Recommendations for the preservation of mosaic-type landscapes, which will be integrated into the official Natura 2000 management plans. This ensures the long-term sustainability of the results through spatial planning and land management at the regional level.<\/p>\n

The ”Mosaic of LIFE” project focuses on the preservation of four Natura 2000 target bird species. These are the Eurasian stone-curlew (Burhinus oedicnemus<\/em>), Greater short-toed lark (Calandrella brachydactyla), Calandra lark (Melanocorypha calandra<\/em>), and tawny pipit (Anthus campestris<\/em>). The implemented measures are expected to significantly increase the number of nesting pairs of these four bird species and improve the general conservation status of grassland habitats and the species dependent on them. The project also aims to strengthen the economic sustainability of traditional extensive grazing and increase the resilience of local economies to climate change. The Mosaic of LIFE thus continues and expands the activities started with the Dinara back to LIFE project, transferring the acquired knowledge and proper practices to the wider region of central Dalmatia.<\/p>\n

In addition to the Biom Association as the project leader, the project partnership includes the Ecological Association “Krka” in Knin, the Faculty of Agriculture of the University of Zagreb, the Krka National Park, and the Fire Department of Split-Dalmatia County. Associated partners are the Ministry of Environmental Protection and Green Transition \u2013 the Institute for Environmental and Nature Protection, the Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry, and Fisheries, the Public Institution Sea and Karst, and the Public Institution Nature of \u0160ibenik-Knin County. The aim is to involve local farmers, foresters, livestock breeders, firefighters, mountaineers, public institutions, and other interested members of the public, encouraging cooperation and ensuring continuity of restoration activities even after the end of the project.<\/p>\n

With the ”Mosaic of LIFE” project, we want to show how nature conservation can be in balance with human activities. Traditional forms of grazing, which have shaped this landscape for centuries, are now becoming a tool for its restoration and preservation.<\/p>\n
