Continua and Umwelt: novel perspectives on viewing landscapes

The concept of continua in nature and the concept of Umwelt, which is related to individual species perception and response, are discussed to explain the landscapes and landscape ecology. It is found that the landscape continuum model having the continua and species perception could assist in determining ways to reflect the multi-faceted reality.
