Jber. Mitt. oberrhein. geol. Ver., N.F. 100: 9–51, 26 Abb.; Stuttgart 2018. Kurze Einführung in die Geologie des Braunschweiger Landes Brief introduction to the geology of the Brunswick district Von Henning Zellmer, Heinz-Gerd Röhling & Volker Wilde* Mit 26 Abbildungen Zusammenfassung Als Braunschweiger Land wird der sächsisch geprägte Kulturraum zwischen Harz und Heide in Nord-Süd-Erstreckung sowie zwischen Hildesheimer und Magdeburger Börde in Ost-West-Erstreckung bezeichnet, der ganz überwiegend im Bundesland Niedersachsen liegt. Es werden aber auch die östlich direkt an Niedersachsen anschließenden Bereiche des Bundeslandes Sachsen-Anhalt bis zum Flechtinger Höhenzug einbezogen. Landschaftlich deckt die Region den Großteil des ostfälischen Hügellandes ab. Durch Tiefenbrüche induzierte und begleitete Salztektonik hat hier eine Landschaft geformt, die entgegen ihrer unauffälligen Oberfläche einen höchst komplexen geologischen Aufbau besitzt. Die schon in der jüngeren Trias einsetzende Salztektonik in Verbindung mit mehreren Transgressions-Regressions-Zyklen und dramatischen Klima-Ände- rungen haben eine sehr vielfältige mesozoische bis quartäre Schichtenfolge pro- duziert. Als regionale Besonderheiten sind die Stromatolithe des Buntsandstein, die sedimentären Eisenerze der Jura- und Kreidezeit, der im Vergleich zu Süd- deutschland landnähere liassische Posidonienschiefer sowie die Dinosaurierreste (Europasaurus) enthaltenden Malm-Sedimente zu nennen. Zudem prägten die geologischen Ressourcen Steinsalz, Eisenerz, Braunkohle, Erdöl, Erdgas sowie Steine und Erden zusammen mit den ertragreichen Löss-Schwarzerde-Böden die kulturelle Geschichte des Braunschweiger Landes. Aktuell ist die Nutzung ehemaliger Bergwerke als Deponie für Atommüll (Konrad, Asse, Morsleben) Thema kontroverser öffentlicher Diskussionen, während die Rohstoffförderung bis auf Erdöl bei Braunschweig, Steinsalz in Grasleben, Kalkstein am Langen- berg sowie einigen Sand- und Kiesgruben weitgehend zum Erliegen gekommen ist.

We scrutinize the applicability of the law of one price to land markets and distinguish between absolute and relative versions of this “law”. Panel data unit root and stationarity tests are applied to land sale prices in the German state Lower Saxony. Three main clusters with different price developments are detected. Our results indicate that the law of one price holds only locally due to structural differences among regions.

Differences in Biomass Yield Development of Early, Medium, and Late Maize Varieties During the 21St Century in Northern Germany Jan F Degener* and Martin Kappas
Degener and Kappas Environmental Sciences Europe (2015) 27:10 DOI 10.1186/s12302-015-0042-9 RESEARCH Open Access Differences in biomass yield development of early, medium, and late maize varieties during the 21st century in Northern Germany Jan F Degener* and Martin Kappas Abstract Background: Though there exists a general notion on how maize yields might develop throughout Europe during the current century, modeling approaches on a regional level that account for small-scale variations are not yet universally available. Furthermore, many studies only refer to one variety of maize. However, the few studies that include at least two varieties indicate that the respective choice will play a major role in how the yields will develop under a changing climate throughout the 21st century. This study will evaluate how far this choice of variety will affect future yields, identify the main factors to explain potential differences, and determine the magnitude of spatial variability. Results: The results suggest clearly differentiated development paths of all varieties. All varieties show a significant positive trend until the end of the century, though the medium variety also shows a significant decline of 5% during the first 30 years and only a slight recovery towards +5% around the century’s end. The late variety has the clearest and strongest positive trend, with peaks of more than +30% increase of biomass yields and around 25% average increase in the last three decades. The early variety can be seen as in-between, with no negative but also not an as-strong positive development path. All varieties have their strongest increase after the mid of the 21st century.

Niedersachsen/Bremen/Hamburg/Ostfriesland Resources Introduction to Lower Saxony, Bremen & Hamburg Wikipedia states in regard to the regions of this modern German Bundesland: “Lower Saxony has clear regional divisions that manifest themselves both geographically as well as historically and culturally. In the regions that used to be independent, especially the heartlands of the former states of Brunswick, Hanover, Oldenburg and Schaumburg- Lippe, there is a marked local regional awareness. By contrast, the areas surrounding the Hanseatic cities of Bremen and Hamburg are much more oriented towards those centres.” A number of the Map Guides to German Parish Registers will need to be used to ﬁnd your town if you are studying this region, among them numbers 4 (Oldenburg), 10 (Hessen-Nassau), 27 (Brunswick), 30-32 (Hannover), 39 (Westphalia & Schaumburg- Lippe) Online (a sampling) Niedersächsische Landesarchiv — http://aidaonline.niedersachsen.de Oldenburg emigrants — http://www.auswanderer-oldenburg.de Ahnenforschung.org “Regional Research” — http://forum.genealogy.net Hamburg Gen.

Abstract Ts & P Prog Gram
ABSTRACTS & PROGRAM 25th – 28th May 2017 University of Vienna Vienna Austria Welcome to the 14th Larwood Symposium in Vienna! ‘Servus’ as we Austrians say. It’s my pleasure to welcome almost 50 colleagues and friends from 15 different countries to Vienna, the capitol of Austria. It is the third time the IBA will come to this city for exchange of new scientific results and new ideas for future research projects. In 1983, Norbert Vávra first invited our community to the 6th international meeting followed 25 years later by the 8th Larwood meeting organized by Norbert Vávra and Andrew Ostrovsky. With this meeting, Vienna will be the venue with most IBA-meetings so far. Kind of surprising considering that the amount of active bryozoologists was never very high when compared to other locations. Vienna is an extraordinary city and an excellent location for conferences and meetings. This is also reflected in the amount of international meetings in this city. Just in 2015 statistics count 3.685 congresses and business events. Organizing a meeting commonly turns out to be more work than expected and I’d like to thank all persons involved in making this meeting possible: Our secretaries Anita Morth and Doris Nemeth, our IT-technician Sonja Matus and my helping hands and students Hannah Schmibaur (who also designed the logo for this meeting), Nati Gawin, Philipp Pröts and Basti Decker. I hope that everyone will have a pleasant stay in Vienna and look forward to an exciting new IBA-meeting. Best wishes, Thomas Scientific program Friday 26.05.2017 08:30‐09:00 Registration 1st session chair: Tim Wood 09:00‐09:10 Thomas Schwaha Welcome in Vienna 09:10‐09:25 Paul Taylor & Loic Villier Turnover time: bryozoans from the type Campanian (Upper Cretaceous) of south‐west France 09:25‐09:40 Mark Wilson et al.

Master of Forestry, Final Thesis Report Christian Scriba
Master of Forestry, Final Thesis Report Christian Scriba A comparison between the forestry sector in New Brunswick (Canada) and Hesse (Germany) by Christian Scriba Previous Degrees (B.Sc. Forestry and Environment, University of Freiburg, 2018; B.Sc. Biology, Philipps-University Marburg, 2014) A Report Submitted in Partial Fulfilment of the Requirements for the Degrees of: Master of Forestry, in the Graduate Academic Unit of Faculty of Forestry and Environmental Management, University of New Brunswick and Master of Science, Forest Sciences, Faculty of Environment and Natural Resources, Albert-Ludwigs-University Freiburg Supervisors: Brigitte Leblon, PhD, Faculty of Forestry & Environmental Management, University of New Brunswick Marc Hanewinkel, PhD, Chair of Forestry Economics and Forest Planning, University of Freiburg This report is accepted by the Dean of Graduate Studies THE UNIVERSITY OF NEW BRUNSWICK July 2020 ©Christian Scriba, 2020 Abstract This report provides an in-depth comparison of forestry and forests in the province of New Brunswick (Canada) and the state of Hesse (Germany). The first two sections describe the general situation and circumstances of forests and forestry in New Brunswick and Hesse, respectively, and the third section aims to compare the two forestry sectors to each other in more detail. The comparison shows several significant differences between the two forestry sectors in regard to forest management, forest governance, and factors influencing the economics of the respective forestry sectors. However, often it was not possible to find directly comparable data for Hesse and New Brunswick, which has several reasons. Therefore, the comparisons made in this report are of a relative nature, to see how much of an impact the forestry sector has on the economy and the people living in New Brunswick and Hesse.

Niedersachs. 34: 69-90. Der aktuelle Bestand des Ortolans in Niedersachsen beträgt ca. 1.300 Brutpaare. Seine Vor - kom mensschwerpunkte liegen im Osten des Landes in den naturräumlichen Regionen "Lüne- bur ger Heide und Wendland" sowie am Südostrand der "Ems-Hunte-Geest". Die größten Vorkommen weisen die Landkreise Lüchow-Dannenberg mit ca. 900 singenden Männchen und der angrenzende Landkreis Uelzen mit ca. 220 singenden Männchen auf. Die räumliche Verteilung der Ortolan-Vorkommen in Ostniedersachsen deutet auf ein zusammenhängendes Siedlungsgebiet hin. Eine individuenreiche Verbreitungsinsel findet sich in den Landkreisen Diepholz und Nienburg: hier wurden allein in der Kuppendorfer Böhrde 70 Ortolanreviere ermit - telt. In anderen Landesteilen hat der Ortolan dagegen Siedlungsgebiete aufgegeben, so z.B. im Landkreis Soltau-Fallingbostel oder im Braunschweiger Raum. Ortolane besiedeln in Niedersachsen häufig trocken-warme Standorte auf leichten Sandböden. Über 80 % der Ortolanreviere im Landkreis Lüchow-Dannenberg fanden sich auf Formationen aus saale- und weichseleiszeitlichen Schmelzwassersanden. Ortolanvorkommen sind fast stets an nieder - schlagsarme Gebiete gebunden; fast alle niedersächsischen Ortolanreviere liegen in Gebieten mit einer durchschnittlichen Niederschlagsmenge von max. 600 mm/Jahr. Ortolane besiedeln in Niedersachsen ausschließlich die kleinräumig strukturierte Kulturlandschaft. Hier liegen ihre Singwarten z.B.

Grüntjens EXPEDITION REPORT Love / hate relationships: Monitoring the return of the wolf to the German state of Lower Saxony Expedition dates: 17 June – 21 July 2017 Report published: June 2018 Authors: Peter Schütte Wolf commissioner Matthias Hammer (editor) Biosphere Expeditions 1 © Biosphere Expeditions, a not-for-profit conservation organisation registered in Australia, England, France, Germany, Ireland, USA Member of the United Nations Environment Programme's Governing Council & Global Ministerial Environment Forum Member of the International Union for the Conservation of Nature Abstract Biosphere Expeditions in collaboration with the State Wolf Bureau (Wolfsbüro) in Lower Saxony, Germany, conducted an active wolf (Canis lupus lupus) monitoring project from 17 June to 21 July 2017. Four weekly groups of up to twelve citizen scientists per group as well as staff, local wolf commissioners and, on occasion, trained wolf scat detection dogs focused on finding wolf sign exclusively on public paths. The study area covered various priority areas in Lower Saxony as advised by the State Wolf Bureau and wolf commissioners. Twenty-five 10x10 km grid cells of the EEA grid system and 1,133 km were surveyed on foot or by bicycle. All grid cells were surveyed multiple times so that they were covered 52 times. 76 wolf scat samples were collected. 33 yielded material for DNA analysis and 75 provided material for dietary analysis. Thirty-two tracks, a variety of fur remains and five wolf kill carcasses were also found, but did not pass quality assessment procedures.
