Jahrestagung der Arbeitsgemeinschaft fand im Bereich der östlichen Ausläufer des gro- ßen Alpenbogens, im Bereich der „Wiener Hausberge" Schneealpe und Rax statt. Höchste Er- hebungen erreichen noch Höhen über 2 000 m ü.M. Dann fallen die Alpen zur Pannonischen Tiefebene mit dem Neusiedlersee (115 in ü.M.) ab. Dementsprechend bietet das Gebiet nahe bei- sammen liegende große landschaftliche Gegensätze, aber auch unterschiedlichste Pflanzen- und Tierwelt. So war es auch naheliegend, dass eine Exkursion an den Neusicdlersee führte. Insgesamt wurden während der Tagung 117 Arten beobachtet, davon 37 n u r am Neusiedlersee. Besonders bemerkenswert ist die Beobachtung von zwei Gänsegeiern Gyps fulvus auf der Rax, also weit außerhalb ihres sonstigen Verbreitungsgebietes in Österreich; weiters sind Wanderfalke Falco peregrinus als Brutvogel sowie Karmingimpel Carpodacus erxlhriniis zu nennen. Die Gesamtbeobachtungen der verschiedenen Exkursionen sind in der Tabelle zusammenfassend dargestellt. Bei der Behandlung einzelner Arten werden nur jene angeführt, die wegen ihrer Höhenlage, Häufigkeit, Brutnachweise oder aus anderen Gründen bemerkenswert erscheinen.

Now since 2002: Institut für Historische Werkstoffe (IHW-EFDZ), Mareckkai 46, A-8700 Leoben (Austria): History and situation For more than seventy years now archeologists have been researching very sophisticated copper smelting in the Alps during the late Bronze-Age (1200-800 BC)[1]. From the region of lower Austria (Schneeberg-Rax) across northern Styria (Radmer, Eisenerz, Johnsbach, Paltental) and continued in the south of Salzburg (Mühlbach) and eastern Tyrol (Jochberg-Kitzbühel, ) with some traces in the Inn-valley, the northern prehistoric production zone ends in Switzerland (Savognin-Oberhalbstein, GR). In the south late bronze age copper-smelting is researched near Trento (Val Sugana) and some traces are found in the north near Bozen/Bolzano (Margreid, Sarntal) and also in Eastern Tyrol (Matrei); other smelting sites are hoped to be found in future in the southern "Grauwackenzone" in Carinthia [2]. The structure of the smelting sites and the remains of the smelting process are very homogeneous in the whole area, 700 km wide,: Stone-built twin-furnaces situated on a slope near flowing water with an approx. 40 cm wide square shape inside (FIG.1), and an apparently open tapping-wall; on the upper part near the deposits for ores and fuel (charcoal), was the clay-lined roasting bead: 1 m wide and 6 to 20 meters long; below the furnaces (often multiple-twins) the slag-pit, which contains several types of slags (blocks, sand, crystalline, glassy etc.).

April 2001 Summary: Subalpine and alpine Vegetation of Mt. Schneealpe (Styria, Austria). — The study is part of die City of Vienna's Karst Research Project and provides a large scale (1:12.500) map of the subalpine and alpine Vegetation of Mt. Schneealpe, Styria (Austria). On principle, mapping units were phytosociologically defined plant communities, based on a classification of 158 rele'ves. The total of 41 communities is portrayed in the text and by means of 7 Vegetation tables. Mapping was done by delineating the areas covered by different plant communities on IR and BW-orthophotos during summer 1999. With its highest peak at 1910 m Mt. Schneealpe would naturally be covered by krummholz of Piniis mugo and vvoodlands (mainly dominared by Picea abies and Larix deciditd) except for rock faces, debris cones, exposed ridges and avalanche paths. However, the actual Vegetation is shaped by some hundred years of alpine pasturing which favoured the expansion of natural alpine grasslands (mainly Seslerio- Caricetum sempervirentis and Festnca pumila-Agrostis «^>zW-grassland) as well as of specialised pasture communities dominated either by Nardus stricta or by Deschampsia cespitosa or by a mixture of herbs (e.g. Leontodon hispidus and Crepis anrea) and tussock grasses (e.g.

Habitat Requirements of the Pulmonate Land Snails Trochulus Oreinos Oreinos and Cylindrus Obtusus Endemic to the Northern Calcareous Alps, Austria
Research eco.mont - Volume 2, Number 2, December 2010 ISSN 2073-106X print version 5 ISSN 2073-1558 online version: http://epub.oeaw.ac.at/eco.mont Habitat requirements of the pulmonate land snails Trochulus oreinos oreinos and Cylindrus obtusus endemic to the Northern Calcareous Alps, Austria Michael Duda, Luise Kruckenhauser, Elisabeth Haring & Helmut Sattmann Keywords: Mollusca, Gastropoda, Cylindrus obtusus, Trochulus oreinos, habitat preferences, Alpine endemics, climate change Abstract Profile The habitat needs and potential threats to Trochulus oreinos oreinos (Wagner 1915) Mountain range and Cylindrus obtusus (Draparnaud 1805) were assessed by comparing vegetation maps and our own records. We selected four sites from which we had adequate Alps samples and for which exact vegetation maps were available: the mountains Hoch- schwab, Schneealpe, Rax and Schneeberg. Both taxa prefer open dry alpine grass- land with diggable soil and/or stones. T. oreinos oreinos is restricted to subalpine Country and alpine boulder societies and Caricetum firmae. While C. obtusus dwells on several communities of plants, it seems to be bound to unconsolidated stony ground. Austria As both taxa prefer naturally forest-free areas, they are not affected by structural changes of the habitat, such as reforestation caused by the abandonment of grazing and the shift of vegetation zones. But it has to be considered that T. oreinos oreinos and C. obtusus are limited by microclimatic factors, as they prefer cooler habitats. The mountains Schneealpe, Rax and Schneeberg, reaching barely 2 000 m in height, are on the climatic limit of the species distribution. Therefore, the investigated taxa are vulnerable to the upward shift of climate zones.

The Classic Fossiliferous Palaeozoic Units of the Eastern and Southern Alps1

Bundesanstalt, Wien; download unter www.geologie.ac.at IUGS Subcomm. Silurian Stratigraphy. Field Meeting 1994: Bibl. Geol. B.-A.. 30/1994. Vienna The Classic Fossiliferous Palaeozoic Units of the Eastern and Southern Alps1 with 18 figures by Hans-Peter Schonlaub and Helmut Heinisch Summary In this report we review the present knowledge about the stratigraphy, the development of facies and the tectonic evolution of the Variscan sequences of the Eastern and Southern Alps. In the Eastern Alps outcrops of fossiliferous rocks of Lower Palaeozoic age are irregularly distributed. They form a mosaic-like pattern of dismembered units incorporated into the Alpine nappe system. Such areas include the Gurktal Nappe of Middle Carinthia and parts of Styria, the surroundings of Graz, a small area in southern Burgenland and the Graywacke Zone of Styria, Salzburg and Tyrol. South of the Periadriatic Line Variscan sequences are represented in the Carnic and Karawanken Alps where they form the basement of the Southern Alps. As regards the regions occupied by quartzphyllitic rocks of presumably Palaeozoic age the reader is referred to the article by Neubauer and Sassi (this volume). Based on a comprehensive set of data a distinct geological history on either side of the Periadriatic Line is inferred. Main differences concern the distribution of fossils, the development of facies, rates of subsidence, supply area, amount of volcanism and the spatial and temporal relationship of climate sensitive rocks from north and south of the Periadriatic Line (H.P.Schonlaub 1992).
