  • Phleum Alpinum L
    Phleum alpinum L. Alpine Cat’s-tail A scarce alpine grass with distinctive purplish flower heads, long bristly awns and short, broad and glabrous leaves. It is associated with base- rich flushes and mires, more rarely with rocky habitats, and occasionally with weakly acid substrates enriched by flushing with base-rich water. In Britain it is more or less confined to above 610 m northern and central Scotland with two southern outliers in the North Pennines. It is assessed as of Least Concern in Great Britain, but in England it is assessed as Critically Endangered, due to very restricted numbers and recent decline. ©Pete Stroh IDENTIFICATION limit for both these species (540 m) is well below the lower limit for P. alpinum in Britain (610 m). However, P. pratense Phleum alpinum is a shortly rhizomatous, loosely tufted has been recorded as an introduction at 845 m near to the P. perennial alpine grass with short, broad, glabrous leaves (-6 alpinum on Great Dun Fell (Pearman & Corner 2004). mm) and short, blunt ligules (0.5–2 mm; Cope & Gray 2009).

  • IN Tune with NATURE No Crop Marks
    Nàdar air ghleus – farpais sgrìobhaidh airson ceòl is òrain Inviting musicians of all genres to compose new music as part of a high-profile national composition and song writing project called In Tune with Nature. What is the competition? To celebrate Scotland’s Year of Coasts and Waters, artists aged 16+ are invited to write new music inspired by one of ten National Nature Reserves (NNRs) across the country. What do I win? The entries will be judged by a panel of well-known and highly regarded musicians and industry professionals, including Julie Fowlis, Vic Galloway, Gill Maxwell and Karine Polwart, and chaired by Fiona Dalgetty. The 10 winning artists will each win a £500 cash prize as well as the opportunity to make a film on the NNR site which inspired their music. The winning artists will be paid for their time on site making the film. There will also be the opportunity to take part in live performances throughout the year. The NNRs include: Beinn Eighe (Ross-Shire), Caerlaverock (Dumfries), Creag Meagaidh (Lochaber), Forvie (North East), Isle of May (Firth of Forth), Loch Leven (Perthshire), Noss (Shetland Islands), Rum (Inner Hebrides), Tentsmuir (Fife) and Taynish (Argyll). To find out more visit nature.scot The new work should reflect the special qualities of the National Nature Reserves, all those selected having strong coastal or freshwater elements. New Gaelic songs are particularly encouraged in the Beinn Eighe and Creag Meagaidh areas and, similarly, songs written in Scots and regional dialects would be warmly received in other areas. Artists should aim to communicate the richness of Scotland’s nature and, through this, encourage new audiences to consider the actions they may take to protect it.

  • Quaternary of Scotland the GEOLOGICAL CONSERVATION REVIEW SERIES
    Quaternary of Scotland THE GEOLOGICAL CONSERVATION REVIEW SERIES The comparatively small land area of Great Britain contains an unrivalled sequence of rocks, mineral and fossil deposits, and a variety of landforms that span much of the earth's long history. Well-documented ancient volcanic episodes, famous fossil sites, and sedimentary rock sections used internationally as comparative standards, have given these islands an importance out of all proportion to their size. These long sequences of strata and their organic and inorganic contents, have been studied by generations of leading geologists thus giving Britain a unique status in the development of the science. Many of the divisions of geological time used throughout the world are named after British sites or areas, for instance the Cambrian, Ordovician and Devonian systems, the Ludlow Series and the Kimmeridgian and Portlandian stages. The Geological Conservation Review (GCR) was initiated by the Nature Conservancy Council in 1977 to assess, document, and ultimately publish accounts of the most important parts of this rich heritage. The GCR reviews the current state of knowledge of the key earth-science sites in Great Britain and provides a firm basis on which site conservation can be founded in years to come. Each GCR volume describes and assesses networks of sites of national or international importance in the context of a portion of the geological column, or a geological, palaeontological, or mineralogical topic. The full series of approximately 50 volumes will be published by the year 2000. Within each individual volume, every GCR locality is described in detail in a self- contained account, consisting of highlights (a precis of the special interest of the site), an introduction (with a concise history of previous work), a description, an interpretation (assessing the fundamentals of the site's scientific interest and importance), and a conclusion (written in simpler terms for the non-specialist).

  • Pib: a Memoir of Colin Pibworth
    FRANK CARD Pib: A Memoir of Colin Pibworth ike any other organisation, a mountain rescue team needs not only its Lcourageous innovators, like FIt Lt Des Graham', but equally those who, over the years, provide the structure with a focus and continuity. Whilst they do not necessarily achieve the commanding heights, their contribution is very often just as valuable. One such was Colin Pibworth ('Pib'), who died in 2001 after an extraordinarily long career in the RAF Mountain Rescue Service. In those thirty years he never got beyond the rank of corporal, though for several periods, as a team leader, he was made up to sergeant. But his influence was enormous. During my researches2 in 1992,JllY wife Jo and I visited the Mountain Rescue Team at RAF Valley. 'You must go and see Pib,' said one of the lads. By this time, I had certainly heard of Colin Pibworth, but had no idea where he could be found. But some of the team knew him, and visited him from time to time. We were directed from RAF Valley into the hills behind Caernarfon and up a steep narrow lane. Eventually we came to a tiny cottage, its roof bristling with CB aerials. A smiling man in his 60s met us at the door, cradling in his arms a cat called Tenzing. 'Why Tenzing?' I asked at some stage. 'Because he's a bit of a cloimber,' came the reply. Ask a silly question. There followed an enthralling hour or so ofstories ranging from blizzards and avalanches in the Highlands to Desert Rescue operations with the Sharjah and Masirah Mountain and Desert Rescue Teams (MDRTs).
