This paper presents different scenarios and their effect on the biodiversity of the two Natura 2000 areas included in the study area of VEDI project. These general scenarios formed the basis of detailed landscape designs, based on a detailed vegetation map for the Vistula River Valley. Indicator species relevant for conservation were selected to represent specific riverine ecosystems like steep banks, sandbanks, semiaquatic habitat, forests, and meadows. The model LARCH was used to assess whether these ecosystems at present still function as an ecological network. Also the modelling results show the potential for biodiversity of the different scenarios
