Biodiversity

   What are the impacts of this issue

In addition to the fragmentation of natural areas and decrease of biodiversity, another relevant problem is the effacement of the wetlands, riverine stands, regulation of water streams. Drying up of the town verdure areas is caused by canalisation of the precipitation, and this way comes about almost 100% outflow from the built-up areas in the town.

Another problem is strong, up to extremely strong potential erosion on the deforested areas, especially in the north and north-west part of the town.
