Energy Characteristics of Some Epicentral Areas in the Vardar Zone 343 Geologica Macedonica, Vol. 32, No. 2, pp. 165–169 (2018) GEOME 2 IISSN 0352 – 1206 Manuscript received: May 15, 2018 e-ISSN 1857 – 8586 Accepted: November 17, 2018 UDC: 550.348.436.098.3(497.71) Short communication ENERGY CHARACTERISTICS OF SOME EPICENTRAL AREAS IN THE VARDAR ZONE Blagica Doneva, Todor Delipetrov, Marjan Delipetrev, Gјorgi Dimov, Krsto Blažev Faculty of Natural and Technical Sciences, Institute of Geology, “Goce Delčev” University in Štip, Blvd. Goce Delčev 89, 2000 Štip, Republic of Macedonia [email protected] A b s t r a c t: Seismological phenomena are a natural phenomenon associated with the development of the Earth. They inflict huge damage and cause a large number of human casualties. The territory of the Republic of Macedonia is, seismically, very active part of the Mediterranean area where a large number of earthquakes have occurred. When studying these phenomena, the determination of the energy released during earthquakes is of great importance. This paper deals with the seismic energy of the Vardar zone through the empirical formula for the dependence of the magnitude of the earthquake M and the activated geotectonic surface. Seismicity in Vardar zone is particularly pronounced in the areas of crossing of the reactivated old faults from the Vardar direction with neotectonic faults that predominantly stretch in the transverse direction. Vardar zone is defined as the most labile tectonic unit on the Balkan Peninsula with very expressed seismicity. This paper presents the energetic characteristics of the epicentral areas separated in the Vardar zone: Kumanovo, Skopje, Veles–Sveti Nikole, Štip–Radoviš, Kavadarci and Valandovo. Key words: energy; characteristics; magnitude; Vardar zone; epicentral areas INTRODUCTION Earthquake is a natural occurrence that origin Energy characterizes the essence of occurrence of in the deep parts of the Earth with rapid release of earthquakes and is one of the main physical cha- energy in the focus area.

The population density was determined by the number of larval nests both per tree and per hectare that varied during the research period. The number of individuals went up between 2007 and 2010, while during the following years it rapidly decreased. Since 2011, an overall prograding trend has been recorded in the several subsequent years. This could be explained by the huge number of individuals from the previous years that were in a diapause.

    North Macedonia: Fires Information Bulletin, 09.08.2021 Summary: Starting from July 30, 2021 Republic of North Macedonia was hit by tremendous heat wave that resulted with severe fires in several regions in the country that are raging for 6 days and they are still not under control despite the enormous efforts of the state institutions responsible for crisis management as well as the local population. The most affected regions are as follows: Strumica region, Kochani region, Kumanovo region, Gevgelija region, Valandovo region, Bitola and Prilep region, Shtip region, Berovo and Pehchevo region, Skopje region, Tetovo region, Radovish region, Ohrid region, Kriva Palanka region. In the past week the Red Cross of the Republic of North Macedonia is in constant communication and coordination with the state institutions on central and local level. At the moment, the Red Cross of the Republic of North Macedonia is in process of providing immediate support to the state emergency response teams in putting down the fires and the national society is making field assessment and collecting and processing information obtained from the Red Cross branches and the state institutions and will subsequently develop a plan of action to assist the affected population. The situation Republic of North Macedonia has been struck by tremendous heat wave that resulted with numerous fires country wide. The heat wave started in the last days of July and the extremely hot weather is expected to continue until August 15. The hot weather and high temperatures resulted with intensive recurring fires in many regions in the country in the last 10 days.

  • Sector Policy of Water Resources Management in Republic of Macedonia
    Sector policy of Water resources management in Republic of Macedonia Ministry of Environment and Physical Planning Republic of Macedonia October 2016 ,Ljubljana-Slovenia Republic of Macedonia • The Republic of Macedonia is situated in South-Eastern Europe, in the centre of the Balkan Peninsula. Around 2% of the territory of the Republic of Macedonia is under water cover. There are 35 rivers and 53 natural and artificial lakes. • The longest river is Vardar, which 301 km are in the Republic of Macedonia, and mostly it flows through the central part of the country. On the southern border there are three large natural lakes: Lake Ohrid, Lake Prespa and Lake Dojran. Responsibility and legal framework of Moepp Ministry of Environment and Physical Planning (MoEPP) has the following competencies of the: state of the environment monitoring; proposing of measures and activities aimed at water resources, air and ozone layer protection, protection against noise, national parks and protected areas; remedial of polluted parts of the environment; cooperation with scientific institutions for development of standards and regulations to regulate environment protection; development of self-financing system from independent sources, types and levels of environmental charges and other payments; cooperation with civil associations. With the provisions of the Law on Waters the Ministry of Environment and Physical Planning has the leading role in the water policies, and the responsibility for water resources and policies including: water use and exploitation, protection against harmful effects of water, river basin management plans, water extraction and pollution, sources for financing of water management activities, transboundary water resources management. 3 Water supply management According to the Law on Self-government, drinking water supply is responsibility of the self government units, as well as wastewater collection, disposal and treatment of the wastewater.
