Der Hauptgrund für die Erklärung dieses Gebiets zum Nationalpark war der Schutz des meist erhaltenen und größten Waldkomplexes auf dem Gebiet von Dalmatien, welcher vom Raubbau gedroht war. Der Nationalpark erstreckt sich auf der Fläche von 95 km Empfehlenswert: Höhle von Monita PEC; Schluchten von Velika und Mala Paklenica; der Gipfel von Vaganski vrh (1757 m ü. M.) Due to its unique natural features, magnificent forests and extraordinary geomorphologic structures, the area of Velika and Mala Paklenica was proclaimed a national park in 1949. The main reason for proclaiming this area a national park was the protection of the largest and best-preserved forest com- plex in the territory of Dalmatia, which was threatened by overexploitation.

Auf der Reise ins Meer von Novigrad, in das er mündet, fließt er durch enge und 200 Meter tiefe Schluchten. Der Fluss ist mit seinen vielen Wasserfällen und Stromschnellen ideal für Wildwasser- Sportarten. Unter Raftingliebhabern ist Zrmanja auch bekannt als Schönheit und Biest zugleich. Wenn der Wasserstand hoch ist, ist es der beste Fluss zum Raften. Andererseits ist der Fluss mit seinem Nebenarm im Sommer sehr geruhsam und ruhig. Langsam können die Besucher dann durch die bezaubernde Landschaft treiben. Zrmanja starts its 69 kilometers long journey in the southern part of mountain Plješevica. On its way to Novigrad's sea, in which it floats into, it goes through arable narrow valleys and magnificent 200 meters deep canyon. It is typical karstic river – it has numerous waterfalls, cascades and ra- pids, which make it perfect for white water sports. Rafting lovers have named it beauty and the beast, because when the water level is high, it offers one of the best rafting experiences in this part of Europe. On the other side, Zrmanja is, with its tributary Krupa, one of the most beautiful rivers in Europe. During the summer time, it's quiet, peaceful and it carries you lightly through breathtaking landscapes.

  • Framing Croatia's Politics of Memory and Identity
    Workshop: War and Identity in the Balkans and the Middle East WORKING PAPER WORKSHOP: War and Identity in the Balkans and the Middle East WORKING PAPER Author: Taylor A. McConnell, School of Social and Political Science, University of Edinburgh Title: “KRVatska”, “Branitelji”, “Žrtve”: (Re-)framing Croatia’s politics of memory and identity Date: 3 April 2018 Workshop: War and Identity in the Balkans and the Middle East WORKING PAPER “KRVatska”, “Branitelji”, “Žrtve”: (Re-)framing Croatia’s politics of memory and identity Taylor McConnell, School of Social and Political Science, University of Edinburgh Web: taylormcconnell.com | Twitter: @TMcConnell_SSPS | E-mail: [email protected] Abstract This paper explores the development of Croatian memory politics and the construction of a new Croatian identity in the aftermath of the 1990s war for independence. Using the public “face” of memory – monuments, museums and commemorations – I contend that Croatia’s narrative of self and self- sacrifice (hence “KRVatska” – a portmanteau of “blood/krv” and “Croatia/Hrvatska”) is divided between praising “defenders”/“branitelji”, selectively remembering its victims/“žrtve”, and silencing the Serb minority. While this divide is partially dependent on geography and the various ways the Croatian War for Independence came to an end in Dalmatia and Slavonia, the “defender” narrative remains preeminent. As well, I discuss the division of Croatian civil society, particularly between veterans’ associations and regional minority bodies, which continues to disrupt amicable relations among the Yugoslav successor states and places Croatia in a generally undesired but unshakable space between “Europe” and the Balkans. 1 Workshop: War and Identity in the Balkans and the Middle East WORKING PAPER Table of Contents Abstract ...................................................................................................................................................................

  • Monitoring Performance of Large Croatian Bridges
    Monitoring performance of large Croatian bridges Jelena Bleiziffer and Jure Radic Institute IGH, Faculty of Civil Engineering, Croatia University of Zagreb, Zagreb, Croatia ABSTRACT: The paper discusses monitoring performance of seven reinforced concrete arch bridges in Croatia. The bridges are vital links in road network system. Systematic approach in planning of bridge maintenance activities is essential for efficient bridge management. Structural health monitoring techniques may be implemented to improve maintenance management. Monitoring systems for long-term control of stresses, strains and corrosion progress have been installed on three major Croatian reinforced concrete arch bridges. Further research is required to develop monitoring strategy addressing the entire bridge stock. 1 INTRODUCTION 1.1 Croatian road network As in most European countries, road network is by far the most important element of land transport in Croatia. According to Croatian legislation, public roads are classified as (Official Gazette RoC, 2008): (1) motorways (1.200 km); (2) state roads (6.800 km); (3) county roads (10.800 km); (3) local roads (10.300 km). Generally, motorway network contributes most to the efficiency of transport, which in turn is of utmost importance for economic and social development of a country. Over the last decades Croatia made large investments in construction of motorways (Fig.1), which would integrate the most distant parts of the country and provide for quick, easy and comfortable transportation of people, goods and services. With the total planned length of 1.500 km, the Croatian motorway network may not seem long, but it is worth mentioning that Croatia already has more kilometres of motorways per 100.000 citizens than, for instance, UK, Ireland, Greece or Italy.

Hojo Code The Martello Papers This is the eighteenth in a series of security studies published over the past several years by the Queen’s University Centre for International Relations (QCIR), under the general title of the Martello Papers. “From Ottawa to Sarajevo” is a detailed, empirical examination of Canadian participation in UN peacekeeping efforts in the former Yugoslavia between 1992 and 1995, written by a US Air Force officer, Major Dawn Hewitt, who served as Visiting Defence Fellow at the Centre during the 1996-97 academic year. Peacekeeping, by all accounts, has become increasingly complex since the end- ing of the Cold War, and as Major Hewitt’s monograph reveals, nowhere have those complexities and frustrations been more apparent than in the former Yugo- slavia.

  • Homogenization of Driving Conditions When Incoming Wind Angles and Intensity Change Significantly
    Safety and Security Engineering 613 Homogenization of driving conditions when incoming wind angles and intensity change significantly G. Gjetvaj Water Research Department, Faculty of Civil Engineering, University of Zagreb, Croatia Abstract Bora is a local, changeable wind that significantly decreases traffic security on the Zagreb-Split motorway on the south side of the Velebit Mountain. On the road section tunnel Sv. Rok - knot Posedarje, the wind velocity increases from near zero in tunnels up to wind gusts of 69 m/s near the bridges. The incoming wind direction varies from parallel to perpendicular to the road axes. As a result of such meteorological conditions, some incidents occur. For that reason the motorway has often been closed to certain categories of vehicle, or even to all traffic, during periods of strong wind. The goal of the described project was to design windbreaks that would decrease wind force and moment acting on the vehicles in such a way that the side wind does not exceed the prescribed value. In this paper a new procedure for homogenization of driving conditions when wind direction and intensity change significantly was developed. Four different types of windbreaks are proposed, based on the results of computer simulation and wind tunnel tests. The proposed windbreaks will significantly increase safety on the motorway during strong Bora. Keywords: windbreaks, driving conditions, Bora. 1 Introduction The newly built section of the motorway Zagreb-Split from the St. Rok tunnel to the Posedarje knot passes through the southern slope of the Velebit in the area where gale-force Bora often occurs with the strongest measured squalls of 69 m/s (248 km/h).
