Protected landscape component pond south of Erlinghausen

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The protected landscape component of the pond south of Erlinghausen with an area of ​​0.08  ha is located in the urban area of Marsberg south of Erlinghausen in the Hochsauerland district . The area was designated in 2008 with the Marsberg landscape plan by the district council of the Hochsauerlandkreis as a protected landscape component (LB). The LB is surrounded by the open spaces around Erlinghausen / Auf der Sandkuhle .

description

The landscape plan explains the LB: “To the north of the flat top of the slab there is a small pond on a small“ red sandstone island ”in the surrounding limestone plateau, which falls dry in the summer due to its low water catchment area. Nevertheless, a reed zone - probably artificially initiated - has formed here, which, together with the water surface, creates an almost alien landscape impression in this natural area characterized by dry limestone habitats. A thick sloe and hawthorn bush has developed on the west side of the temporary still water; opposite is a small row of birches. Overall, the protected object enriches the continuous use of arable land and grassland on the plateau south of Erlinghausen with a small, but still ecologically and aesthetically effective structural element. "

Protection purpose

The designation as LB took place:

  • To maintain, develop or restore the efficiency and functionality of the natural balance
  • For revitalizing, structuring or maintaining the townscape and landscape
  • To ward off harmful effects

Like the other LBs in the landscape plan area, the LB represents an outstanding habitat for the ecological performance of the natural balance. It also serves as an element that structures and animates the landscape. The designation serves to ward off real or potential harmful effects through the removal of plants, relief or water changes, etc.
