VEGETATION AS AN BIOLOGICAL MEASURE FOR FLOOD CONTROL

The aim of research is improvement of the quality of the landscape structure of Jaša Tomić village for adequate flood protection. A multidisciplinary approach to the researched problem was contributed to the economic, social and environmental perspective. Based on analysis of existing conditions, and guided by the experiences of international examples, it has been proposed a biological method of flood control for the banks of Jaša Tomić village. This method of defense is implemented by connecting hydrophilic fragments of native forests, but also by improving vegetative fund of non-indigenous species adaptable to the environmental conditions.
