“…The typical symptoms of the suburbanization process are an increase in built-up areas and a decrease in arable land. Attention has been paid to this by many researchers, including Vavrochova and Toman [14], Antrop [1], Mosammam et al in Qom city [32] and Hualou et al in Chinese cities [33]. The above research carried out in rural areas of the Upper Silesia-Zagłębie Metropolis also confirmed this, but with some differences.…”

“…They were also analyzed in terms of the intensity of the suburbanization processes, which is indicated, among other things, by the increase in the type of residential area and the decrease in arable land [1]. According to the guidelines of Antrop [1], as well as Vavruochova and Toman [14], the indicators of the suburbanization process were considered to be an increase in urban fabric (1.1) and a decrease in arable land (2.1). In addition, due to the location in the area of the former industrial district and in the area of influence of the Katowice Special Industrial Zone, the increase in industrial, commercial and transport units (1.2) was also analyzed as a suburbanization indicator.…”

“…In Italy, Martellozzo et al [13] modeled the expansion of a city up to 2030. In Central Europe, Vavrouchova and Toman [14] studied landscape changes in the surroundings of Brno, Bicik and Kupkova [15] in the surroundings of Prague in the Czech Republic, and Sveda [16] near Bratislava in Slovakia.…”

Dynamic changes in the landscape have been observed in recent years. They are particularly visible in areas with a high degree of anthropopressure. An example of such areas is metropolitan regions and their immediate rural surroundings. The purpose of this article is to identify changes in land cover in the rural municipalities within metropolises and detect the processes of landscape transformation in rural areas, which are extremely sensitive to anthropopressure. The dynamics of land cover changes in the years 2000–2018 were determined using a change index (ChI), and their directions were determined using the indicator of changes in types of land cover. Corine Land Cover for level 2 groups (1.1–4.2) was used as research material, and the Upper Silesia-Zagłębie Metropolis was selected as the model area. The greatest changes in the landscape were observed in built-up areas, industrial areas, meadows and mining areas. This is due to the disappearance of the mining industry that was traditional for this region and the ongoing suburbanization process, as well as the re-industrialization of modern industry and the abandonment of arable land in rural areas.

“…3). In the second step of the study, the ICh index of landscape change was calculated, which determines the percentage of land that underwent transformations (Vavrouchová, Toman, 2013). On this basis, it was determined how much transformation was taking place, and the compilation of the results of the index in time sequences made it possible to study the dynamics of landscape transformation.…”

In recent years, the dynamic of spatial change has been increasing, influenced by processes linked to the transformation of traditional industrial regions into metropolitan areas. This is related to changes in function and administrative status, but above all to spatial changes. Examples of cities experiencing dynamic landscape changes from coal mining cities to modern metropolises can be found in the former coal basins of Central Europe – the Upper Silesian Metropolis in Poland and the Ostrava-Karviná Region in the Czechia. This study analysed the transformation of the landscape on the basis of land cover data from the years 2000, 2006, 2012 and 2018. The index of landscape change and the index of change of individual cover types were calculated, and on the basis of these indices the main processes responsible for the transformation of the landscape were determined. In the two study areas, similar changes in the landscape are taking place but at different rates. The main processes changing the landscape are suburbanization, reindustrialization and agricultural land abandonment. In space, they are manifested in an increase in the areas of residential, commercial and service development, the densification of the road network, and an increase in land allocated for new industrial plants. At the same time, the acreage of agricultural land (mainly arable fields, orchards and plantations but also open landscapes) is decreasing.
