Abstract(s)

After conducting an inventory and characterisation of the existing elements belonging to the ecological structure at a regional level, located in a particular area at three defined moments in time, a subsequent analysis of the modification of biological structures of the area was undertaken. This analysis involved the application of different diagnostic indices in order to evaluate the causal relationships between modifications in land use and the environmental modifications observed.
