  • Foreign Submarine
    Foreign submarine A serious political conflict between Sweden and the Soviet Union, in which a Lund physicist played an active role. Foreign submarine 426 427 Foreign submarine in Swedish archipelago On the evening of 28 October 1981 the front pages of the newspapers were filled with a surprising piece of news. A Soviet submarine on a secret mission had run aground on a rock in Blekinge archipelago. It was well inside a restricted military area and not far from Karlskrona naval base. Heightened state of alert Swedish military units from the navy and coastal rangers, among others, were assembled in the area over the following days. A large area was cordoned off. Helicopters and fighter aircraft patrolled the airspace and Swedish submarines were stationed underwater along the limit of territorial waters. The naval ship Thule was stationed as a barrier in the strait out towards open water. Foreign submarine 428 429 In all probability armed In an extra edition of the television news pro- gramme Aktuellt, a week after the grounding, Prime Minister Torbjörn Fälldin revealed that the submarine: ”… in all probability …” was armed with nuclear weapons. Political activity in Sweden and internationally was great. This was world news! Dagens Nyheter, 6 November 1981. The day after the Prime Minister’s revelation that there were nuclear weapons on board the submarine U137. On a secret mission In order to investigate whether the submarine was armed with nuclear weapons, measurements of the ionising radiation needed to be carried out. Reader Ragnar Hellborg from the Department of Physics in Lund was one of those who performed the measure- ments on behalf of the Swedish Defence Research Agency: It was around dinnertime on All Hallows’ Eve when the phone rang.

  • Species Composition and Distribution Pattern of Waterbirds in Algerian Central Hauts Plateaux Wetlands
    World Journal of Environmental Biosciences All Rights Reserved WJES © 2014 Available Online at: www.environmentaljournals.org Volume7, Issue 2: 26-30 ISSN 2277- 8047 Species Composition and Distribution Pattern of Waterbirds in Algerian Central Hauts Plateaux Wetlands Asma Zoubiri1, Ettayib Bensaci2, Yassine Nouidjem2*, Menouar Saheb1, Bilal Gasmi2, El Hadi Mailbi2 1Department of Natural and Life Sciences, University of Oum El-Bouaghi, Algeria 2Department of Natural and Life Sciences, University of M’Sila, Algeria. ABSTRACT With the aim to assess waterbirds’ diversity, status and distribution in the Central Hauts Plateaux wetlands of Algeria, a survey was conducted along four successive study years in the main sites. This monitoring allowed assessing 52 species, representing 16 families. Anatidae are the most abundant, and represented by 11 species. Boughzoul´s reservoir is the highly rich wetland, followed by Chott El Hodna and K’sob reservoir. However, Dayet El Kerfa is the preferred wetland for breeding species. Winter migrants, residents, and migrant species are the dominated status with 43 %, 28 % and 17 %, respectively. While these statuses varied between sites. Overall, the analyzed phonological status of assessed species displays the key role played by these wetlands as wintering grounds, a stopover during migration journeys, and breeding sites for several waterbirds’ species. The presence of vulnerable species (Marmaronetta angustirostris), and three near threatened other species (Aythya nyroca, Limosa limosa, Numenius arquata) following the IUCN Red List confirms the importance of the Central Hauts Plateaux wetlands for waterbirds conservation.

  • Wetlands Fact Sheet 23
    Environmental Defender’s Office of Western Australia (Inc.) Wetlands Fact Sheet 23 Updated December 2010 An introduction to Wetlands Western Australia contains a large number of significant wetlands that provide important habitats for native plants and animals. Many of these wetlands have been damaged or destroyed by land developments, the alteration of natural water system regimes and pollution. In agricultural areas, significant land clearing has led to many naturally saline lakes and marshes becoming hyper-saline and unable to sustain native species. It is estimated that over 80% of the wetlands of the Swan Coastal Plain have been destroyed, with only 15% retaining high conservation values. This fact sheet examines the legal protection that applies to wetlands in Western Australia and identifies the bodies responsible for their management. For information on the laws relating to other water resources, see Fact Sheet 21: River, watercourses and groundwater. What are wetlands? The Rights in Water and Irrigation Act 1914 (WA) (“RIWI Act”) defines a wetland as a natural collection of water (permanent or temporary) on the surface of any land and includes any lake, lagoon, swamp or marsh; and a natural collection of water that has been artificially altered. A wetland is not a watercourse (i.e. any river, creek, stream, brook or reservoir in which water flows into, through or out of; or any place where water flows that is prescribed by local by-laws to be a watercourse). Under the Convention on Wetlands of International Importance especially as Waterfowl Habitat 1971 (“Ramsar Convention”), a wide variety of natural and human-made habitat types can be classified as wetlands.
