“…The pivotal role of vegetation within the ecosystem is a well-established fact acknowledged by researchers (Gupta et al, 2020;Peng et al, 2012) as it facilitates energy exchange, water circulation, and biogeochemical cycles on the Earth's surface. Indeed, the capacity of vegetation to influence habitat conditions and species composition represents a significant area of interest within the biological sciences (Rannow and Neubert, 2014).…”

A b s t r a c t. Background and Aims: This research investigates vegetation dynamics in the Gavkhouni catchment from 2001 to 2021, focusing on the spring season. The aim is to analyse the relationship between aridity, vegetation, and rainfall. Moreover, additional emphasis was placed on exploring the impact of these dynamics on agricultural land cover thereby contributing to our understanding of the environmental dynamics in the Gavkhouni catchment. Methods: The study made use of MODIS data, including the Enhanced Vegetation Index and Vegetation Condition Index, along with monthly rainfall statistics from Chirps. Analytical methods include time series analyses using correlation and regression analysis. Results: Throughout the study period, the average spring vegetation cover was 9276.33 km².

“…Climate is defined as the average variation in meteorological variables such as temperature, humidity, precipitation, and pressure recorded in a region over many years (Anders et al, 2014). A region's geographical and topographical features play an essential role in its climate.…”

In this study, trend analyses of six climatic variables (mean, minimum, and maximum temperature, relative humidity, wind speed, and precipitation) for 1966-2020 are conducted for the Southeastern Anatolia Region, which is the main focus of the integrated development project in Turkey (Turkish acronym GAP). The trends for seasonal and annual periods are determined using the Mann-Kendall (MK) test, and Sen's slope method and regression analyses are used to find the trends' slopes. Moreover, Innovative Trend Analysis (ITA) is also used to find the time series changes for low, medium, and high values. As a result of the analyses, the mean, minimum, and maximum temperatures in the GAP region show increasing trends according to both methods. Significant trends are obtained at a limited number of stations for the precipitation, relative humidity, and wind speed with the MK test, while consistent decreasing trends are found at most stations with the ITA method.

“…Particularly in the Bucegi Mountains, winters were characterized as mild, with little snow and early springs, that significantly disturbed the plant communities (Sârbu et al, 2014). Anyway, climate changes may extend the list of species that can be adopted in colder climates (Messinger, 2015).…”

Historical gardens’ restoration is a complex process including not only built features of the layout, but also vegetation. Climate changes, air pollution, new pests and other factors have an important impact on vegetation and make sometimes impossible to restore the garden to the original model. Therefore, vegetation restoration requires investigations, to establish the tendencies, dynamics and resilience of different species in the garden, and decisions to adopt sustainable solutions. Woody plants from Peleș Royal Castle Gardens (Sinaia, Romania) were investigated to reveal the diachronic transformations of the vegetation and to establish an objective starting point in garden restoration. Despite of decades of neglected maintenance, historical events and changes in building function, the garden has a considerable number of old valuable trees and shrubs. Woody plants located on terraces were in a significantly poorer condition compared with those planted on the lawn. Natural forest surrounding the garden and native species cultivated in the garden acted as a source of landscape regeneration. Climate changes, affecting the mountain zone, allow the cultivation of woody species of warmer climates. Results of present study will be essential for all the future decisions about woody vegetation and gardens restoration.
