    5th Symposium Conference Volume for Research in Protected Areas pages 389 - 398 10 to 12 June 2013, Mittersill Natural Hazards – Hazards for Nature? Avalanches as a promotor of biodiversity. A case study on the invertebrate fauna in the Gesäuse National Park (Styria, Austria) Christian Komposch, Thomas Frieß & Daniel Kreiner Abstract Avalanches are feared by humans and considered “catastrophic” due to their unpredictable and destructive force. But this anthropocentric perspective fails to capture the potential ecological value of these natural disturbances. The Gesäuse National Park is a model-region for investigations of such highly dynamic events because of its distinct relief and extreme weather conditions. This project aims to record and analyse the animal assemblages in these highly dynamic habitats as well as document succession and population structure. 1) Dynamic processes lead to one of the very few permanent and natural vegetationless habitat types in Central Europe outside the alpine zone – i. e. screes and other rocky habitats at various successional stages. In addition to the tight mosaic distribution of a variety of habitats over larger areas, avalanche tracks also offer valuable structures like dead wood and rocks. Remarkable is the sympatric occurrence of the three harvestmen species Trogulus tricarinatus, T. nepaeformis und T. tingiformis, a species diversity peak of spiders, true-bugs and ants; and the newly recorded occurrence of Formica truncorum. 2) The presence of highly adapted species and coenoses reflect the extreme environmental conditions, specific vegetation cover and microclimate of these habitats. Several of the recorded taxa are rare, endangered and endemic. The very rare dwarf spider Trichoncus hackmani is a new record for Styria and the stenotopic and critically endangered wolf-spider Acantholycosa lignaria is dependent on lying dead wood.

  • Problems of Mining the Prospective Coal-Bearing Areas in Donbas

The prospective coal-bearing areas of Donbas in Ukraine have been identified. Their development will increase the energy security of Ukraine. It has been suggested that the development of these areas will involve mining the coal seams in a weak roof and floor environment, which are characterized by low compressive strength, lower density and a tendency to plastic deformations. The stability has been assessed of the rocks outcrop on the contour of mine roadways for mines operating in these areas. It has been determined that roof rocks in most of these mines belong to a range of groups from very unstable to moderately stable, and the bottom rocks are, in most cases, prone to swelling. This complicates the intensive prospective areas mining with the use of advanced technologies, as well as secondary support for retained goaf-side gateroads with limited yielding property. The mines have been determined, for which this issue is relevant when mining the seams with further increase in the depth. The mechanism of displacement in the secondary supports and has been exemplified and studied using the numerical method.

    Elektronische Aufsätze der Biologischen Station Westliches Ruhrgebiet 12 (2008): 1-9 Electronic Publications of the Biological Station of Western Ruhrgebiet 12 (2008): 1-9 Wo die wilden Kerle wohnen: Vogelspinnenverwandtschaft (Atypus affinis, Araneae) im Ruthertal zwischen Werden und Kettwig (Essen) Marcus Schmitt Universität Duisburg-Essen, Abteilung Allgemeine Zoologie, Universitätsstraße 5, 45141 Essen; E-Mail: [email protected] Einleitung Die Ordnung der Webspinnen (Araneae) mit ihren 40.000 bekannten Arten lässt sich in drei Unterordnungen aufteilen (PLATNICK 2007). Es gibt die besonders ursprüngli- chen Gliederspinnen (Unterordung Mesothelae), vertreten nur durch eine einzige Familie (Liphistiidae), die Vogelspinnenartigen (Mygalomorphae) mit 15 Familien und die „modernen“ Echten Webspinnen (Araneomorphae) mit über 90 Familien und den bei weitem meisten Arten (über 37.000). Die Mygalomorphae wurden ehedem auch als Orthognatha, die Araneomorphae als Labidognatha geführt. Diese Namen sind insofern bezeichnend, als sie sich auf das augenfälligste Unterscheidungsmerkmal beider Gruppen beziehen: Die Kiefer der Vogelspinnenartigen sind vor dem Prosoma (Vorderleib) horizontal angeordnet (Abb. 1) und arbeiten nebeneinander auf und ab, die der Echten Webspinnen stehen eher vertikal unter der Prosomafront und bewegen sich pinzettenartig aufeinander zu (vgl. FOELIX 1992). Die mygalomorphen Spinnen leben ganz hauptsächlich in den warmen Gebieten der Erde. Am bekanntesten sind die Theraphosidae, die „eigentlichen“ Vogelspinnen. Sie sind zumeist stark behaart und oft auffällig gefärbt. Unter ihnen befinden sich die größten Spinnen überhaupt, und sie werden nicht selten als Haustiere in Terrarien gehalten (SCHMIDT 1989). Viele Mygalomorphae sind aber weniger spektakuläre Er- scheinungen und führen als Bodenbesiedler, die Wohnröhren in das Erdreich gra- ben, ein sehr verstecktes Leben. Im mediterranen und südöstlichen Europa existie- ren in mehreren Familien immerhin um die 60 Arten (PLATNICK 2007, HELSDINGEN © Biologische Station Westliches Ruhrgebiet e.

Cover: June 4, 2013, Spartak, Ukraine: June 2021 Unexploded ordnances in Eastern Ukraine continue to cause harm to civilians. T +1 202 558 6958 E [email protected] civiliansinconflict.org ORGANIZATIONAL MISSION AND VISION Center for Civilians in Conflict (CIVIC) is an international organization dedicated to promoting the protection of civilians in conflict. CIVIC envisions a world in which no civilian is harmed in conflict. Our mission is to support communities affected by conflict in their quest for protection and strengthen the resolve and capacity of armed actors to prevent and respond to civilian harm. CIVIC was established in 2003 by Marla Ruzicka, a young humanitarian who advocated on behalf of civilians affected by the war in Iraq and Afghanistan. Honoring Marla’s legacy, CIVIC has kept an unflinching focus on the protection of civilians in conflict. Today, CIVIC has a presence in conflict zones and key capitals throughout the world where it collaborates with civilians to bring their protection concerns directly to those in power, engages with armed actors to reduce the harm they cause to civilian populations, and advises governments and multinational bodies on how to make life-saving and lasting policy changes. CIVIC’s strength is its proven approach and record of improving protection outcomes for civilians by working directly with conflict-affected communities and armed actors. At CIVIC, we believe civilians are not “collateral damage” and civilian harm is not an unavoidable consequence of conflict—civilian harm can and must be prevented.

  • Crimea and the Kremlin: from Plan “A” to Plan “B”
    Crimea and the Kremlin: From Plan “A” to Plan “B” Translated by Arch Tait March 2015 This article is published in English by The Henry Jackson Society by arrangement with Radio Free Europe / Radio Liberty. CRIMEA AND THE KREMLIN: FROM PLAN “A” TO PLAN “B” 1 Reconstructing events in east Ukraine and the rationale behind them. On 15 March, Crimea marked the first anniversary of the referendum on whether it wanted to be incorporated as Part of Russia. Shortly before,Vladimir Putin signed a decree instituting a new national holiday: SPecial OPerations Forces Day. This is to be celebrated on 27 February, the day in 2014 when the “little green men” embarked on their oPeration to seize key facilities in Crimea. The day before the announcement, Russian television aired a film titled “Crimea: the Path Back to the Homeland”, in which Putin describes taking the decision to begin the oPeration to annex the Peninsula. For all that, certain details about the oPeration and the Russian president’s motives remain obscure. We could do worse than get the answer to the question of why Putin decided to seize Crimea from the horse’s mouth, from Putin’s own sPeeches. He had listed his grievances at some length in a sPeech in the Kremlin on 18 March 2014. Not for the first time, he blamed the United States for “destroying the world order” and, in his view, stage-managing a whole succession of “coloured” revolutions. His main comPlaint was about NATO’s eastward expansion, “moving uP military infrastructure to our borders.” Because of this, he argued, “we have every reason to believe that the notorious Policy of containment of Russia, Pursued in the eighteenth, nineteenth, and twentieth centuries, continues to this day.
