Overlay of the Natura 2000 network with the urban sprawl results (WUP values of 2009) for the 1-km2 LEAC grid, showing Poland as an example. In some parts of the country, the areas of urban sprawl are very close to the Natura 2000 areas. The Natura 2000 are much smaller in regions with higher level of urban sprawl.
