Thematic Maps of the Danube River Basin DANUBE POLLUTION REDUCTION PROGRAMME THEMATIC MAPS OF THE DANUBE RIVER BASIN Social and Economic Characteristics with particular attention to Hot Spots, Significant Impact Areas and Hydraulic Structures June 1999 Programme Coordination Unit UNDP/GEF Assistance prepared by Zinke Environment Consulting for Central and Eastern Europe and Mihaela Popovici Vienna, Austria DANUBE POLLUTION REDUCTION PROGRAMME THEMATIC MAPS OF THE DANUBE RIVER BASIN Social and Economic Characteristics with particular attention to Hot Spots, Significant Impact Areas and Hydraulic Structures June 1999 Programme Coordination Unit UNDP/GEF Assistance prepared by Zinke Environment Consulting for Central and Eastern Europe and Mihaela Popovici Vienna, Austria Preface The report on “Thematic Maps of the Danube River Basin” gives an overview of social and economic characteristics of this region, with particular attention to Hot Spots, Significant Impact Areas and Hydraulic Structures which were addressed during the preparation of the Pollution Reduction Programme. This includes the results of two workshops in Hernstein / Austria (24-30 January and 11-16 May 1999) where “Sub-River Basins” have been identified as new planning units for transboundary cooperation. The production of thematic maps and overlays did not only use existing national data but is equally based on new information gathered at the national level. The present report was first drafted as a background information for the “Transboundary Analysis Workshop”, and then revised as a contribution to the Pollution Reduction Programme. In a final step, a structural analysis of the rivers of the Danube Basin with focus on hydraulic structures was added. The conceptual preparation and the organisation of activities were carried out by Joachim Bendow, UNDP/GEF Project manager. The report was prepared by ZINKE ENVIRONMENT CONSULTING FOR CENTRAL AND EASTERN EUROPE (maps by Ulrich Schwarz), with the support of Mihaela Popovici, Bucharest. The report was edited by Michael Sokolnikov. Table of Contents 1. Introduction.................................................................................................... 1 2.

  • 1 the Early and Middle Bronze Age in the Balkans Arthur Bankoff
    1 The Early and Middle Bronze Age in the Balkans Arthur Bankoff The earlier part of the Bronze Age in temperate southeastern Europe (c. 2200– 1500 B.C.) presents a confusing picture to the unwary archaeologist. Although over the years more publications have appeared in English, German, and French, many basic site reports and syntheses are only fully available in Hungarian, Romanian, Bulgarian, Serbian, or other indigenous languages. Often the names of apparently identical archaeological cultures change with bewildering abandon as one crosses modern national borders or even moves between regions of the same country. This part of the world has a history (beginning in the mid–nineteenth century) of antiquarian collecting and detailed specialist typological studies, especially of ceramics and metal objects, with far less effort expended on the more mundane aspects of prehistoric life. Only since the 1980s have studies become available that incorporate the analysis of plant and animal material from Bronze Age sites, and these are far from the rule. To some extent, this is due to the nature of the archaeological record, that is, the sites and material that have survived from the Early and Middle Bronze Age. With the exception of habitation mounds (tells) and burial mounds (tumuli), both of which have a limited distribution in the earlier part of the Bronze Age, most sites are shallow, close to the modern ground surface, and easily disturbed. Farming and urban development has been more destructive to these sites than to the more deeply buried sites of earlier periods. The typically more dispersed settlement pattern of the Bronze Age in most of this region results in smaller sites, more vulnerable to the vagaries of history than the more concentrated nucleated sites of the later Neolithic or Eneolithic (sometimes called Copper Age) of the fifth and fourth millennia B.C.

  • Geographical and Economic Influences on the Colonisation of the Banat
    Geographica Pannonica No. 2, 20-25 (1998) Geographical and Economic Influences on the Colonisation of the Banat Bruce Mitchell School of Slavonic and East European Studies, University of London, Senate House, Malet Street, London WC1E 7HU, Englad Saša Kicošev Institute of Geography, University of Novi Sad, Trg Dositeja Obradovica 3, 21000 Novi Sad, Yugoslavia Abstract In the following paper, the influence of selected factors on the developing settlement of the Banat is examined. These include the historical river network and marshes, the availability of building materials, fuel and drinking water, and the variety, location and extractability of raw materials. Mention is also made of the effect of some of these factors on the general state of health of the population. This is followed by a brief account of processes of colonisation in the Banat during the 18th and 19th centuries. The motivations of the colonists themselves, and of their rulers, the context in which they were operating, and a brief appreciation of the contributions of the various ethnic groups involved. Bounds and Area The Banat is a conventional label for a territorial entity whose existence, despite a remarkably chequered administrative history, is acknowledged by Serb, Romanian, German and Hungarian, and there is close agreement on its geographical bounds. The courses of the Danube, Tisa and Maros embrace the Banat on three sides: divided from the Bačka on the west by the southward flow of the Tisa (Hungarian, Tisza), the Banat is separated "naturally" from Srem and Serbia, and Wallachia by the broad stripe of the Danube as far as Orsova.

  • Vzdrževanje Dravinje Na Območju Natura 2000 – Primera Izvedbe Vzdrževalnih Del Pri Majšperku in Pri Studenicah
    R. KUZMIČ - 156 - AKTUALNI PROJEKTI S PODROČJA S. KALIGARIČ UPRAVLJANJA Z VODAMI IN UREJENJE VODA Robertina KUZMIČ* Simona KALIGARIČ** VZDRŽEVANJE DRAVINJE NA OBMOČJU NATURA 2000 – PRIMERA IZVEDBE VZDRŽEVALNIH DEL PRI MAJŠPERKU IN PRI STUDENICAH UVOD Pri izvajanju vzdrževalnih del se tudi na Dravinji srečujemo z dokaj kompleksno problematiko, ki po eni strani izhaja iz zahtev varstva narave, na drugi strani pa iz zahtev pri zagotavljanju ustrezne poplavne in erozijske varnosti. Osrednji del Dravinje je z Uredbo o posebnih varstvenih območjih (območjih Natura 2000 (6)), opredeljen kot območja Natura 2000, SPA in 2 pSCI (slika 1). Z Uredbo so opredeljeni so varstveni cilji iz katerih izhajajo varstvene usmeritve. S temi se posege in dejavnosti usmerja tako, da se zagotovi ohranjanje ali izboljšanje stanja vrst in habitatnih tipov območja. To pa lahko narekuje tudi prilagojeno rabo naravnih dobrin in upravljanja voda. V prispevku predstavljamo območji Natura 2000 in primera sanacijskih del, ki smo jih izvedli na Dravinji v letih 2005 in 2006 in pri katerih smo skušali slediti varstvenim ciljem oziroma specifičnim varstvenim usmeritvam, ki izhajajo iz naravovarstvenega statusa območja. Obravnavamo sanacijo erodiranih odsekov na dveh lokacijah, in sicer zajede pri Studenicah in sanacijo dveh zajed v bližini Majšperka. Na obeh obravnavanih lokacijah teče Dravinja po močno vijugasti in zaraščeni strugi. Zaradi izredno meljasto peščene sestave tal so konkavne brežine tu bolj ali manj erozijsko poškodovane. Starejša, dotrajana drevesa padajo v strugo, kar dodatno zapira strugo in pretočni profil. Zaradi sestave tal in delnega zmanjševanja pretočnosti struge prihaja v konkavnih odsekih do večjih poškodb brežin, v konveksah pa do odlaganja zemeljskega materiala, ter posledično s tem do nastajanja sipin.

  • Evaluation of Wetlands and Floodplain Areas in the Danube River Basin Final Report May 1999
    DANUBE POLLUTION REDUCTION PROGRAMME EVALUATION OF WETLANDS AND FLOODPLAIN AREAS IN THE DANUBE RIVER BASIN FINAL REPORT MAY 1999 Programme Coordination Unit UNDP/GEF Assistance prepared by WWF Danube-Carpathian-Programme and WWF-Auen-Institut (Germany) DANUBE POLLUTION REDUCTION PROGRAMME EVALUATION OF WETLANDS AND FLOODPLAIN AREAS IN THE DANUBE RIVER BASIN FINAL REPORT MAY 1999 Programme Coordination Unit UNDP/GEF Assistance prepared by WWF Danube-Carpathian-Programme and WWF-Auen-Institut (Germany) Preface The "Evaluation of Wetlands and Flkoodplain Areas in the Danube River Basin" study was prepared in the frame of the Danube Pollution Reduction Programme (PRP). The Study has been undertaken to define priority wetland and floodplain rehabilitation sites as a component of the Pollution reduction Programme. The present report addresses the identification of former floodplains and wetlands in the Danube River Basin, as well as the description of the current status and evaluation of the ecological importance of the potential for rehabilitation. Based on this evaluation, 17 wetland/floodplain sites have been identified for rehabilitation considering their ecological importance, their nutrient removal capacity and their role in flood protection. Most of the identified wetlands will require transboundary cooperation and represent an important first step in retoring the ecological balance in the Danube River Basin. The results are presented in the form of thematic maps that can be found in Annex I of the study. The study was prepared by the WWF-Danube-Carpathian-Programme and the WWF-Auen-Institut (Institute for Floodplains Ecology, WWF-Germany), under the guidance of the UNDP/GEF team of experts of the Danube Programme Coordination Unit (DPCU) in Vienna, Austria.

Stancu Ion Street, Târgovişte 130105, Dâmboviţa County, Romania E-mail: [email protected], [email protected] Abstract Between the settlements dating from the Middle Palaeolithic in Romania, a special place is held by the Mousterian from the Carpathian caves which provided lithic industries made of a great diversity of local rocks: flint, chaille, chert, jasper, radiolarite, quartz, quartzite, quartzolite, andesite, basalt, diorite etc. So far, all the specialized studies highlight the use of rocks other than flint, chaille or chert as a form of substitution of the high-quality raw materials missing in a certain area. As the use of certain types of rocks provides particular technological and typological features to the material culture from the Carpathian caves, we shall attempt to understand to what extent the Mousterian dwellers of the Carpathian caves chose, for debitage, certain categories of rocks with different mechanical properties and petrographic characteristics. The types of rocks analysed in this article come from the following Mousterian settlements: Bordul Mare Cave from Ohaba Ponor, Curată Cave from Nandru, Cioarei Cave from Boroşteni and Muierii Cave from Baia de Fier. Besides the prevalent use of local rocks, which denotes opportunistic behaviour and particular adaptability in relation to resources existing around the settlements, we find there are differences in selecting the types of raw material.
