“…PMM has been applied as well at the national level in the Slovak Republic (Feranec and Nováček, 2009) and in the historical context of mountain Slovak landscapes (Hresko et al, 2015). In Central Europe, there are numerous regional and local studies which specify changes in landscape matrices: for example, in Austria by Krausmann et al (2003); Kowalska (2012) in the middle Vistula River valley in Poland; Hohensinner et al (2004) around the Danube River; and Deák (2007) who covers habitat changes and landscape use in the South-Tisza-valley, Hungary.…”

“…Addressing the cultural landscapes of the island of Mallorca from circa 1850 to the present, Marull et al (2015), describe the application of an intermediate disturbancecomplexity approach to land-use change using ecological functionality as a proxy of biodiversity. This study considers the human appropriation of photosynthetic capacity of a landscape as a measure of disturbance, along with a selection of land metrics at various spatial scales.…”

With the convention on biological diversity (CBD) office in UNEP acting as global focal point for biodiversity, and UNESCO acting as global focal point for cultural diversity, the two institutions launched in 2010 the Joint Programme on the Links between Biological and Cultural Diversity (JP-BiCuD) to strengthen the linkages between biological and cultural diversity initiatives, and to enhance the synergies between interlinked provisions of conventions and programmes dealing with biological and cultural diversity at relevant scales. The first meeting for the implementation of the Joint Programme was held in Florence (Italy) in April 2014 and produced a declaration to promote the Joint Program in the European Continent. The scientific committee received 165 paper proposals. The selection operated by the Steering Committee accepted 63 papers considered highly relevant for the topic of the conference and also 11 posters, from 25 countries. The expert meeting for the drafting of the final declaration was attended by 42 experts from 14 countries and about 33 organizations, including FAO, ICOMOS, IUCN, and IUFRO among others. The Florence Declaration (UNESCO and SCBD 2014) was drafted taking into account the results of the conference works, and has not only produced political indications for the implementation on the Joint Programme, but also indicated some of the most important issues concerning research activities for the promotion of the concept of biocultural diversity:Communicated by
