Work called „Selected Aspects of landscape ecology in process land consolidations“ aims at providing analysis of some parts of the process of land consolidations. The goal of this work is to analyse and evaluate two aspects of landscape ecology – evaluating the development of the agricultural land creation and the face of a landscape.In order to achieve the above-mentioned goals a model area located in Zlín region was used in the thesis. It is an area registered as Kvítkovice near Otrokovice and a district of complex land consolidation called Kvítkovice.After thoroughly studying theoretical sources and performing field explorations and after their consequent synthesis, several analyses were carried out and methodical solution was suggested. By comparing time series of the model area development, i.e. by the so called evaluation of the intensity of changes of agricultural land exploitation, one can learn from the history and can look for the causes of current discrepancies. This evaluation can be used as the basis for finding the solution for current problems and land proposals.The above mentioned was complemented with the face of a landscape evaluation.The work concludes with stating that today it is necessary to rationally regulate landscape and exploit it in such a manner that it is productive, functional, active but also „beautiful“ for its users in the long term – land consolidations are the ideal tool for achieving that.
