  • Trends and Perspectives of Cargo Traffic Activities in the Port of Split
    TRENDS AND PERSPECTIVES OF CARGO TRAFFIC ACTIVITIES IN THE PORT OF SPLIT Luka Vukić University of Split Faculty of Maritime Studies E-mail: [email protected] Zvonimir Lušić University of Split Faculty of Maritime Studies Danijel Pušić University of Split Faculty of Maritime Studies Silvija Galić Luka d.d. Split Commercial Department E-mail: [email protected] UDK 656.615 (497.583 Split) Summary Predominately perceived as a port for both national and international passenger traffic, cargo traffic activities in the Port of Split are often marginalized despite the positive trends of cargo throughput volumes in the recent years. With the absence of significant investments in port facilities, inadequate infrastructure and insufficient cargo-handling equipment, Split cargo basins jointly handled more than 3 million tons of various commodities in 2017. The current cargo throughput levels positioned the port on the third place, just behind Port of Ploče on the national level, nearly reaching the historic peaks of cargo traffic volumes. Due to the advantageous geographical location, expected economic recovery and growth of larger Split region and higher demand, it is fundamental to provide overview of current cargo traffic indicators, trends and capacities and determine the development perspectives of Port of Split and cargo-related services, which should enable the increase of the port performance and recognition. The growth of the port cargo volumes, from the port performance standpoint and considering mainly wider local and regional significance of the port, is reachable solely with large investments in modernization of infra and supra structure, especially cargo-handling equipment, complementary to the demand for commodities and services of its hinterland.

  • Review of Generated Waste from Cruisers: Dubrovnik, Split, and Zadar Port Case Studies

Large quantities of waste originate from land, but a certain amount of waste is generated at sea, in which shipping holds its share. A recent analysis for 2015–2016 has rated the Croatian ports of Dubrovnik, Split, and Zadar in the top 10 out of 20 main cruising ports in the Adriatic Sea. As it is clear that a large number of persons present onboard generate a large amount of waste, the aim of this paper is to estimate the amount of waste (plastic, domestic, and food) and examine the significance of its increasing quantity produced by cruisers in the three main cruiser ports in the Croatian part of the Adriatic Sea for the period 2014–2017. Cruise calls correlation, together with repeated measures one-way Analysis of variance -ANOVA, showed that a future increase in the port calls for Zadar can be expected while, for the port of Dubrovnik, a decrease is projected, which is in correspondence with the taken measures for a reduction in the adverse effects of the cruise industry.

  • Portable Archaeology”: Pashas from the Dalmatian Hinterland As Cultural Mediators
    Chapter 10 Connectivity, Mobility, and Mediterranean “Portable Archaeology”: Pashas from the Dalmatian Hinterland as Cultural Mediators Gülru Necipoğlu Considering the mobility of persons and stones is one way to reflect upon how movable or portable seemingly stationary archaeological sites might be. Dalmatia, here viewed as a center of gravity between East and West, was cen- tral for the global vision of Ottoman imperial ambitions, which peaked during the 16th century. Constituting a fluid “border zone” caught between the fluctu- ating boundaries of three early modern empires—Ottoman, Venetian, and Austrian Habsburg—the Dalmatian coast of today’s Croatia and its hinterland occupied a vital position in the geopolitical imagination of the sultans. The Ottoman aspiration to reunite the fragmented former territories of the Roman Empire once again brought the eastern Adriatic littoral within the orbit of a tri-continental empire, comprising the interconnected arena of the Balkans, Crimea, Anatolia, Iraq, Syria, Egypt, and North Africa. It is important to pay particular attention to how sites can “travel” through texts, drawings, prints, objects, travelogues, and oral descriptions. To that list should be added “traveling” stones (spolia) and the subjective medium of memory, with its transformative powers, as vehicles for the transmission of architectural knowledge and visual culture. I refer to the memories of travelers, merchants, architects, and ambassadors who crossed borders, as well as to Ottoman pashas originating from Dalmatia and its hinterland, with their extraordinary mobility within the promotion system of a vast eastern Mediterranean empire. To these pashas, circulating from one provincial post to another was a prerequisite for eventually rising to the highest ranks of vizier and grand vizier at the Imperial Council in the capital Istanbul, also called Ḳosṭanṭiniyye (Constantinople).

Ključne riječi: časopis ‘Kulturna baština’, bibliografija, Split Obljetnice su prigode ne samo za proslave već i za okretanje pogleda unatrag, za rezimiranje postignutih uspjeha, za izradu pregleda dotadašnjeg rada i planiranje budućeg.

  • Construction of Marinas in the Croatian Coastal Cities of Split and Rijeka As Attractive Nautical Destinations
    Coastal Cities and their Sustainable Future 137 Construction of marinas in the Croatian coastal cities of Split and Rijeka as attractive nautical destinations S. Favro1 & M. Kovačić2 1Faculty of Economics, University of Split, Croatia 2Faculty of Maritime Studies, University of Rijeka, Croatia Abstract In the last ten years Croatian coastal cities and towns have been changing their landscape to a large extent. Port, shipbuilding and other activities have only a secondary role, while tourism has become an attractive activity in all of its aspects. Some parts of port areas have undergone a change of the original intended use, whereby nautical tourism has a special position. This paper researches the development of two Croatian cities, Split and Rijeka, that are subject to significant and at the same time different changes. The authors analyse the current status of the development of nautical tourism in Croatia with an emphasis on Split and Rijeka. Physical planning is particularly analysed as well as the influence of public authorities on coastal landscaping. The paper elaborates a methodological approach for selection of marina locations in the coastal area. By applying a multi-criteria analysis in the selection of marina locations in the cities of Split and Rijeka, the authors present the possibility of rational, sustainable use of coastal space. Taking into consideration cultural and other identities of an urban area, the authors emphasize the importance of a responsible and controlled redesign of the coastal area as an important factor for the life of citizens. Keywords: nautical tourism, old city ports, space redesign, Croatia. 1 Introduction Maritime ports are an integral part of large cities, their most attractive, and at the same time, their most profitable area.
