  • Emsland Without Wildfowl

    Emsland Without Wildfowl

    EMSLAND WITHOUT WILDFOWL G. L. Atkinson-Willes T h is is intended partly as a piece of nostalgic reminiscence, but more especially as a warning of the constant pressure that is being exerted on wildfowl habitat throughout North-West Europe. It is the story of how, during the past five years, a big drainage scheme on the marshes of the lower Ems has robbed many thousands of ducks and geese of one of their main wintering grounds in western Germany, and thereby upset a tradition of many seasons standing. What the final repercussions will be, it is still too early to say, but for a population of this size alternative resorts must become increasingly difficult to find. To many people, who served in B.A.O.R. during the first ten years after the war, the Emsland will already be well known as the scene of numerous forays. They at least will have no difficulty in appreciating the great changes that have taken place, but for others, who missed this chance of seeing the area in its heyday, a map and a short description may help to give some idea of what has been lost. The things that one remembers most about the Emsland are perhaps the sense of space, the soft sadness of the grey-green landscape, and always in the background the long rampart of the dyke which confined the river and its tributaries along the whole of their lower course. The only landmarks were an occasional spire or line of poplars by a distant road, and the red-brown bulk of the great Friesian barns, nestling in their clumps of trees at the marsh’s edge.

    Der Einfluß Der Kaninchenbeweidung Auf Die Vegetation Am Beispiel Des Straußgras-Dünenrasens Der Ostfriesischen Inseln

    Tierarztliche Praxis ISSN NO: 0303-6286 Tuexenia 9 : 283-291. Göttingen 1989. Der Einfluß der Kaninchenbeweidung auf die Vegetation am Beispiel des Straußgras-Dünenrasens der Ostfriesischen Inseln - Karl Kiffe - Zusammenfassung Am Beispiel des Straußgras-Dünenrasens (Agrostio tennis - Poetum humilis, Koelerion albescentis) der Ostfriesischen Inseln wird der Einfluß des Wildkaninchens (Oryctolagus cuniculus L.) auf die Vegetation untersucht. Da Kaninchen nur auf vier der sieben großen Inseln Vorkommen, konnte die Assoziation unter sonst gleichen ökologischen Bedingungen in einer von Kaninchen nicht beweideten bzw. in einer beweide- ten Ausbildung untersucht werden. Ein Vergleich der beweideten und unbeweideten Probeflächen erbrachte folgende Resultate: 1. Die nicht von Kaninchen beweideten Flächen werden durch eine Reihe meist auffällig blühender, aus­ dauernder Phanerogamen gekennzeichnet: Lotus corniculatus, Hypochoeris radicata, H ieracium umbella- tum, Anthoxanthum odoratum, Jasione montana, Stellaria gramínea, Plantago lanceolata, Trifolium ar- vense u.a. 2. In stark von Kaninchen beweideten Flächen fehlen die oben genannten Arten fast vollständig. Die Va­ riante wird durch das vermehrte Auftreten von Brachythecium albicans, Ceratodon purpureus, Cladonia chlorophaea agg., Comicularia aculeata, Cerastium semidecandrum, Rubus caesius u.a. Arten charakteri­ siert. 3. Zwischen der „blumenreichen“ und der „blumenarmen“ Variarne der Assoziation vermittelt eine Ausbildung mit beiden Differentialartengruppen; sie treten jedoch jeweils mit nur geringer Stetigkeit auf. Diese intermediäre Ausbildung wurde stets in der Nähe von Kulturland gefunden. Die Kaninchen legen ihre Bauten zwar überwiegend in den Dünen an, sie suchen ihre Nahrung jedoch bevorzugt in den angren­ zenden Wiesen, Weiden oder Gärten. A bstract The influence of the wild rabbit (Oryctolagus cuniculus L.) on vegetation is analysed in an Agrostio tenuis - Poëtum humilis (Koelerion albescentis) of the East Frisian Islands.

I am conducting the first interview with Mr. Paul Leeser in my office at the Temple. Mr. Leeser lives in Richmond, Indiana. This is Wednesday afternoon, August 23, 1978. Mr. Leeser, how old are you? A: Fifty- seven. Q: Where were you born? A: In a city in the Rhineland (Germany) called, at that time, Hanborn(spelled by PL). Today it is a suburb of a larger city called Duisburg (Duisburg is again spelled by PL). It is called today: “Duisburg-Hanborn.” They are both in the Rhineland tare? Part of the German State of Westphalia. Q: Did you grow up there? A: My early years I spent in Hanborn. I went to school there. Then, when I was not quite in high school, that was in 1927 or 1928, we left the Rhineland and moved inland because my parents bought a business there. I continued my education in a little town called Rinteln which is on the Weser River near the town of Hameln in the district of Minden, at the time. The city, today is in the district of Hanover. I continued my grade school education there and had my first religious training. That is religious school and Hebrew school, etc.

    The Dutch Revolution of 1795 and the History of Republicanism Wyger RE

    Much in Little Revisited: The Dutch Revolution of 1795 and the History of Republicanism Wyger R.E. Velema, Department of History, University of Amsterdam Paper prepared for the conference ‘The Republican Tradition: From the Hanseatic League to the Era of the Enlightenment’, European University at St. Petersburg, December 7-9, 2012 Not to be quoted or cited without permission from the author It is more than half a century ago that R.R. Palmer, who was soon to become famous with his magisterial work The Age of the Democratic Revolution, introduced an international scholarly audience to the Dutch revolution of 1795, also known as the Batavian revolution. In his pioneering article ‘Much in Little: the Dutch Revolution of 1795’, he pointed out that the fall of the Dutch ancien régime and the revolutionary transformation of the Netherlands that followed this downfall could best be understood as part of an international and interlinked series of revolutionary events.1 On a small scale, the Batavian revolution therefore could serve to ‘illuminate the whole complex of war and revolution which then gripped the Western world’.2 As he made abundantly clear in the title of his later magnum opus, Palmer had a relatively simple and straightforward view of the struggles that tore the Western world of the late eighteenth century apart. Just as democracy had been at issue in the Dutch revolution of 1795, the whole European and American world of the final decades of the century of Enlightenment saw the rise of a new and historically unprecedented democratic opposition against all sorts of aristocratic ‘constituted bodies’.

    Cambridge University Press 978-0-521-83747-7 - Britain and the Dutch Revolt 1560–1700 Hugh Dunthorne Frontmatter More information Britain and the Dutch Revolt 1560–1700 England’s response to the Revolt of the Netherlands (1568–1648) has been studied hitherto mainly in terms of government policy, yet the Dutch struggle with Habsburg Spain affected a much wider commu- nity than just the English political elite. It attracted attention across Britain and drew not just statesmen and diplomats but also soldiers, merchants, religious refugees, journalists, travellers and students into the confl ict. Hugh Dunthorne draws on pamphlet literature to reveal how British contemporaries viewed the progress of their near neigh- bours’ rebellion, and assesses the lasting impact which the Revolt and the rise of the Dutch Republic had on Britain’s domestic history. The book explores affi nities between the Dutch Revolt and the British civil wars of the seventeenth century – the fi rst major challenges to royal authority in modern times – showing how much Britain’s chang- ing commercial, religious and political culture owed to the country’s involvement with events across the North Sea. HUGH DUNTHORNE specializes in the history of the early modern period, the Dutch revolt and the Dutch republic and empire, the his- tory of war, and the Enlightenment. He was formerly Senior Lecturer in History at Swansea University, and his previous publications include The Enlightenment (1991) and The Historical Imagination in Nineteenth-Century Britain and the Low Countries

Introduction The hydro- and morphodynamic processes of the Wadden Sea form the foundation for the ecological, cultural and economic development of the area. Its extraordinary ecosystems, its physical and geographical values and being an outstanding example of representing major stages of the earth’s history are factors why the Wadden Sea received a World Heritage area qualification (UNESCO, 2016). During its existence, the Wadden Sea has been a dynamic tidal system in which the geomorphology of the landscape continuously changed. Driving factors of the morphological changes have been: Holocene sea-level rise, geometry of the Pleistocene surface, development of accommodation space for sedimentation, sediment transport mechanisms (tides and wind) and, the relatively recent, strong human interference in the landscape. In this report new insights into the morphology of the trilateral Wadden Sea gained since the Quality Status Report (QSR) in 2009 (Wiersma et al., 2009) are discussed. After a summary of the Holocene development (sub-section 2.1), the sand-sharing inlet system approach as a building block for understanding the morhodynamic functioning of the system with a special emphasis on the backbarrier (sub-section 2.2) is discussed, followed by other parts of the inlet-system.
