Modřany Gully
The Modřany Gully nature reserve (Czech: Přírodní památka Modřanská rokle) is located in the districts of Modřany, Cholupice and Libuš of Prague, Czech Republic on the east side of the Vltava river.  It was formed by erosion from the Libuš creek, which, in several places has exposed geologic profiles. It was granted protected status due to the riparian forest in the area near the creek, and the occurrence of thermophilic meadow ecologies on the slopes, but in recent years has suffered from encroachment of foreign flora, in particular the Black Locust tree. It is also an important recreational area between two housing estates, containing a nature trail and several cycling routes.

Riparian forest
A riparian forest or riparian woodland is a forested or wooded area of land adjacent to a body of water such as a river, stream, pond, lake, marshland, estuary, canal, sink, or reservoir. Due to the broad nature of the definition, riparian woodlands have a huge diversity of characteristics including but not limited to soil composition, microclimates, and vegetative structures. However, among the varied range and landscapes, one factor stays constant: a high rate of primary productivity. This makes riparian forests hugely important centers of nutrient recycling.
