  Abstract:  

The Analysis of the Anthropogenic Induced Elements in Trascău Mountains. The current paper represents an analysis of the anthropogenic induced elements from Trascău Mountains, in terms of the surfaces which are used by the human communities for different purposes. In the analysis of the anthropogenic component, we have calculated the numeric evolution of the population in the last century when significant changes occurred in the total number of inhabitants; in the same time, the current paper comprises an analysis of the types of settlements identified within Trascău Mountains which are the result of the adaptation to the morphology of the relief (scattered, dotted about or congregate settlements being therefore identified) as well as the values of several parameters used in order to make an assessment of the human impact within the analyzed territory. The geographical space of Trascău Mountains presents itself as an adequate element of favorability for the development of human communities, the natural components offering (by means of the existing resources) both the basis and the proper means for the existence and development of the anthropogenic element. The current structure of the land use is the result of the changes that have occurred in the economy of the existing rural settlements; the agricultural activities developed in the lower parts of the analyzed unit are replaced towards the areas located at higher altitudes by animal husbandry or by other related activities.

Keywords: Trascău Mountains, geographical space, anthropogenic induced elements.
