Cover Story: Followed by the grassland around the villages, forests are the main land cover in the high-mountain landscape of the Bakuriani–Tsikhisjvari basin in Georgia’s Lesser Caucasus. Covering an area from the middle-montane belt to the alpine belt, the local agriculture is traditionally managed, and the forests are in a near-natural condition. Alongside both land covers, widespread wooded grasslands represent the transition between agriculture and forestry. This agroforestry use is common in the local forests. Overall, this high-mountain land-use system results in valuable biodiversity in the region. The aim of this study is to map, quantify, and classify the Lesser Caucasian land-cover and land-use pattern to explain the diverse landscape structure along topographical gradients as well as compare the forests with the potential natural vegetation.
