Municipal solid waste landfill – Vegetation succession in an area transformed by human impact

摘要: Abstract Landfilling is the most used and worldwide spread method of municipal solid waste (MSW) disposal. The disposal MSW in landfills entails a number environmental risks raises concerns about harmful impacts on human health. presence contaminants should be monitored each study assessing impact anthropogenic activities environment, which relate to management. It was hypothesized that landfill site can disturb species composition native vegetation create space for synanthropic as well invasive plant species. aim present long-term monitoring community (floristic research) an landfill, identification changes evaluation importance identified surrounding ecosystem safety landfilling. results demonstrate creates very specific environment. Our research shows not stable place succession. terms its therefore continual needed. This has high potential species, may alter ecosystems. Species problematic agriculture were identified, too. necessary pay attention vegetation, possibly even control some
