Landscape research in Belgium
In the federal state Belgium, landscape research evolved from regional geographical monographs to more applied research that focuses upon the specific problems in each of the regions. In the highly urbanized Flanders region in the north, aspects of suburbanization and fragmentation are the most important. Landscape research involves geographers, historians, archaeologists, agronomists, foresters, ecologists and nature conservationists all dealing with specific goals and tasks. The integration is mainly achieved in spatial planning. In the Walloon region large areas are still rural and have a l... Mehr ...

In the federal state Belgium, landscape research evolved from regional geographical monographs to more applied research that focuses upon the specific problems in each of the regions. In the highly urbanized Flanders region in the north, aspects of suburbanization and fragmentation are the most important. Landscape research involves geographers, historians, archaeologists, agronomists, foresters, ecologists and nature conservationists all dealing with specific goals and tasks. The integration is mainly achieved in spatial planning. In the Walloon region large areas are still rural and have a large forest cover, while urbanized zones are rather concentrated. Landscape research focuses here mainly upon the rural involving geographers, agronomists and planners. The natural and scenic aspects of the landscape dominate and the study of the historical development of the landscape is less pronounced. In Brussels Capital region little attention is given to landscape aspects, as social and typical urban problems dominate. Consequently, different landscape typologies are used in Belgium. ; De monographies géographiques régionales, les recherches réalisées en Belgique en matière de paysage ont évolué vers des recherches plus appliquées mais aussi plus spécifiques à chacune des régions de l’état fédéral. Au nord, en Région flamande fortement urbanisée, ce sont les aspects de la suburbanisation et de la fragmentation des paysages qui sont surtout considérés. Ces recherches sont menées par des géographes, des historiens, des archéologues, des agronomes, des forestiers, des écologues selon leurs objectifs et préoccupations spécifiques, l’intégration de ces différentes approches étant principalement accomplie à travers la planification spatiale. En Région wallonne, d’importantes étendues sont encore rurales et forestières, les zones urbanisées étant relativement concentrées. Ici, la recherche en matière de paysage implique principalement les géographes régionaux, les agronomes, les écologues et les aménageurs du territoire. Les ...
