Woodlands — Ecological Corridors (CERS)

This dataset lists the various **environmental corridors** potential for the **sub-streme woodlands** of the SRCE in the Centre-Val de Loire region. These corridors provide connections between biodiversity reservoirs, providing favourable conditions for species to move and complete their life cycle. (Article R.317-19 III of the Environmental Code). Two levels of intervention are possible under the CERS: the corridors to be restored and those to be preserved. An indicative 3 km right-of-way is to be taken into account on both sides of the corridor axis, so as to indicate that these are imprecise displacement zones that will need to be refined from local knowledge at the time of the declination of the CERS. The regulations allow not all biodiversity reservoirs to be linked by ecological corridors (Article R.317-19 II of the Environmental Code). This scenario should be limited and mainly concern biodiversity reservoirs with regard to: * a) the relevance of connecting or maintaining the natural isolation of these spaces (in particular: cases of isolation to prevent the spread of invasive alien species or possible health problems posed by wildlife carrying diseases that can be transmitted to domestic species (e.g. swine fever) or even humans (e.g. rabies)). * B) the preservation of certain spaces which constitute an ecological network in “not Japanese” for associated species (e.g. ponds and lakes, ponds, bogs) or certain areas not connected today but which can serve tomorrow as a “relay” or a new point of the ecological mesh of the territory (in response to changes such as climate change, range change, fires, the disappearance of reservoirs via a development project...).
