  • Water Coaster "Atlantica" Supersplash
    New Attraction: Water Coaster "Atlantica" SuperSplash Off to new shores: Since March 19th 2005, the visitors of Europa-Park can look forward to a brand-new attraction. "Atlantica? SuperSplash is the name of the new water coaster which set sail for its maiden voyage at the beginning of Europa-Park's 30th anniversary season. A world novelty is one track section with turns and a backwards ride, which was never realised with boats of this size before. The new water coaster was designed by Mack Rides in Waldkirch, it is the first component of the Portuguese themed area, which will be completed in 2006. According to its history as a traditional seafaring nation, the main theming of Portugal is the era of the great Portuguese seafarers and discoverers in the 15th and 16th century, when it was a challenge to conquer the oceans. Go aboard and experience an adventurous ride through the vastness of the Atlantic Ocean! A 16th century Portuguese fortress is the center of the area around the "Atlantica? SuperSplash. Its interior is dominated by "Henry the Seafarer?, who points at the endless Atlantic Ocean in order to challenge everybody to set sail and discover the unnknown. Because once the visitors leave the strong walls of the protective fortress, they are put to a severe test? With a height of 32 meters, the "Atlantica? SuperSplash is Europa-Park's second-highest attraction (the "Silver Star? has a height of 73 meters). In five large boats, each one for up to 16 persons, the visitors are pulled up to the highest point of the water coaster.

  • 3. Guida Europa Park
    GUIDA TURISTICA IN BREVE EUROPARK INGRESSO GERMANIA: inaugurata nel 1997, quest'area ha sostituito il vecchio ingresso di Europa Park. Qui gli Ospiti trovano la stazione di partenza della monorotaia che permette di godere della vista di quasi tutto il parco divertimenti, i giardini del Castello di Balthasar e alcune attrazioni per bambini. ITALIA: inaugurata nel 1982, ospita le dark rides Ghost Castle (a tema horror) e Piccolo Mondo (a tema Italia), il Teatro dell'Arte, lo show "Carnevale di Venezia", l'Open Air Stage dove si susseguono spettacoli di acrobati o giocolieri e l'attrazione Volo da Vinci. Ghost Castle: attrazione al buio nella quale i visitatori compiono un viaggio attraverso stanze infestate da fantasmi e scenografie ispirate al mondo del horror. Simile a quella dei parchi Disney, questa attrazione è adatta a tutta la famiglia ma alcune scene possono impressionare i più piccoli. FRANCIA: dominato dalla sagoma della sfera metallica del roller coaster indoor Eurosat, la quale si ispira alla struttura di Spaceship Earth del parco Disney EPCOT situato ad Orlando in Florida, il quartiere francese si sviluppa attorno ad uno specchio d'acqua. Nei pressi di Eurosat troviamo: Universe of Energy - Dinosaur Ride, il cinema 4D con effetti speciali in sala, la torre panoramica girevole Euro-Tower ed altre attrazioni minori. L'area ospita anche la stazione di Silver Star, il secondo Hyper Coaster più alto d'Europa (73 metri). Universe of Energy Dinosaur ride: un'attrazione dedicata al mondo dei dinosauri nella quale si compie un viaggio nella foresta dell'epoca jurassica, a stretto contatto con gli animali preistorici.

März 2017 in Potsdam Nordbayern Geothermal Prospection in NE Bavaria: 1 GeoZentrum Nordbayern Crustal heat supply by sub-sediment Variscan granites in the Franconian basin? FAU Erlangen-Nürnberg *[email protected] 1 1 1 1 1 2 2 Schaarschmidt, A. *, de Wall, H. , Dietl, C. , Scharfenberg, L. , Kämmlein, M. , Gabriel, G. Leibniz Institute for Applied Geophysics, Hannover Bouguer-Anomaly Introduction with interpretation Late-Variscan granites of different petrogenesis, composition, and age constitute main parts of the Variscan crust in Northern Bavaria. In recent years granites have gained attention for geothermal prospection. Enhanced thermal gradients can be realized, when granitic terrains are covered by rocks with low thermal conductivity which can act as barriers for heat transfer (Sandiford et al. 1998). The geothermal potential of such buried granites is primarily a matter of composition and related heat production of the granitoid and the volume of the magmatic body. The depth of such granitic bodies is critical for a reasonable economic exploration. In the Franconian foreland of exposed Variscan crust in N Bavaria, distinct gravity lows are indicated in the map of Bouguer anomalies of Germany (Gabriel et al. 2010). Judging from the geological context it is likely that the Variscan granitic terrain continues into the basement of the western foreland. The basement is buried under a cover of Permo- Mesozoic sediments (Franconian Basin). Sediments and underlying Saxothuringian basement (at depth > 1342 m) have been recovered in a 1390 m deep drilling located at the western margin of the most dominant gravity low (Obernsees 1) and subsequent borehole measurements have recorded an increased geothermal gradient of 3.8 °C/100 m.

    Causal analysis of Covid-19 spread in Germany Atalanti A. Mastakouri Department of Empirical Inference Max Planck Institute for Intelligent Systems Tübingen, Germany [email protected] Bernhard Schölkopf Department of Empirical Inference Max Planck Institute for Intelligent Systems Tübingen, Germany [email protected] Abstract In this work, we study the causal relations among German regions in terms of the spread of Covid-19 since the beginning of the pandemic, taking into account the restriction policies that were applied by the different federal states. We propose and prove a new theorem for a causal feature selection method for time series data, robust to latent confounders, which we subsequently apply on Covid-19 case numbers. We present findings about the spread of the virus in Germany and the causal impact of restriction measures, discussing the role of various policies in containing the spread. Since our results are based on rather limited target time series (only the numbers of reported cases), care should be exercised in interpreting them. However, it is encouraging that already such limited data seems to contain causal signals. This suggests that as more data becomes available, our causal approach may contribute towards meaningful causal analysis of political interventions on the development of Covid-19, and thus also towards the development of rational and data-driven methodologies for choosing interventions. 1 Introduction arXiv:2007.11896v2 [stat.AP] 3 Aug 2020 The ongoing outbreak of the Covid-19 pandemic has rendered the tracking of the virus spread a problem of major importance, in order to better understand the role of the demographics and of political measures taken to contain the virus.

  • Eastern Bavaria
    Basic text Eastern Bavaria Culture Eastern Bavaria is still home to more castles than anywhere else in Germany: Some medieval castles remain only as ruins, whilst other castles such as Falkenstein Castle have withstood decline and are open to visitors. The expansive spruce forests in Eastern Bavaria have given way to the Bavarian Glass Road, as they supplied the wood and quartz sand –the key raw materials – for the very first glass foundries. Spanning some 250 kilometres, it is one of the most picturesque holiday routes in Germany. Those choosing to travel along the route will learn all about the 700-year tradition of glass production and glass as a form of art. The route, which begins in Neustadt an der Waldnaab and leads to Passau, features glass foundries, galleries and museums, all packed to the brim with interesting facts about the traditional handicraft. Some Eastern Bavarian companies are keeping the tradition alive to this day and export to countries ranging from the United Arab Emirates to the United States of America. The largest towns in Eastern Bavaria include Regensburg, Landshut and Passau. The city of Regensburg, which was first founded by Roman Emperor Marcus Aurelius, has retained its medieval centre to this day. The Old Town of Regensburg together with Stadtamhof has been a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 2006. Landshut is the prototype of an old Bavarian town. Above all its town centre, which features gabled houses, decorative façades, oriels and arches, is one of the most beautiful squares to be found in the whole of Germany. The three-river town of Passau, which was built in the Italian baroque style, achieved early wealth thanks to its participation in the salt trade and was a place of border crossings due to its location on the border with Austria and just 30 kilometres from the Czech border.
