Land cover 2012 Overview of land cover & change 2006-2012 The overall pace of land cover development in Bosnia and Herzegovina is half slower than in previous period, described by annual change rate of 0.06%. This means that it is one of the slowest among European countries. This current slowdown has been caused mostly by rapid decrease of the intensity of forest creation and management – in particular of recent felling and transition – which, in the long term, is by far the most significant driver of land cover change in the country – even after the slowdown. The other flows with rapid decrease of intensity were urban residential sprawl and internal agricultural conversions. After this shift in distribution of intensity among particular flows, sprawl of economic sites and infrastructures and conversion from forested land to agriculture, both with higher intensity than in 2000-2006, became the other most significant flows behind forest development. Also the annual artificial land take rate decreased significantly, however, with 0.48% of initial artificial area, it still remains one of the highest in Europe. However, it has to be mentioned here, that the sprawl in the period 2006-2012 has been driven mostly by extension of mining areas and by construction, while residential sprawl – the main driver of artificial development in the previous period – almost disappeared from the landscape. Note: The results presented here are based on a change analysis of 44 land cover types mapped consistently on a 1:100.000 scale across Europe over more than decade between 2000-2006-2012 - see Corine land cover (CLC) programme for details.

Residential sprawl disappeared

Despite rapid decrease of its intensity, the rate of artificial land take still remains one of the highest among European countries. The diffuse residential sprawl, which was by far the most powerful driver of the artificial development in the previous period 2000-2006, lost most of its intensity and almost disappeared from the landscape. In the period 2006-2012, the sprawl is driven mostly by extension of mines, quarries and waste dumpsites and also by construction. Geographically, the artificial development is distributed over the whole country, with similar pattern as in the previous period, however, with significantly lower intensity. In particular, the central region of the country, including the capital city Sarajevo, shows rapid decrease of sprawl, in comparison with previous period – there is almost no more artificial development in this region in the period 2006-2012.

Agriculture (2006-2012)

Rapid slowdown of pasture consumption

The pattern of agricultural development in Bosnia and Herzegovina is quite different comparing with previous period. In particular, consumption of pastures, the most significant trend in previous period, ended up. On the other hand, other flows occur which were not observed before, represented by formation of vineyards and fruit and berry plantations. The main reason for this decrease of pasture consumption intensity is the significant slowdown of urban residential sprawl and of internal agricultural conversion from pasture to arable land and permanent crops, as these flows were the main consumers of pasture land in the previous period. In general, agriculture internal conversions almost disappeared from the land cover development in the country.

Slowdown of recent felling and transition

Despite significant decrease of its intensity, compared to previous period, forest creation and management remains the most powerful driver of land cover change in the country. As usual in Europe, this flow is represented mostly by forest internal conversions. Their prevailing direction is the conversion from transitional woodland to forest, in 2006-2012. On the other hand, the intensity of opposite recent felling and transition decreased significantly, compared to previous period. Except these forest internal flows, also forests and shrubs fires or conversion from wetlands to agriculture have been observed in the country, in the frame of natural land cover change.
