Anz. 41: 31-40 Bestand des MittelspechtesDendrocopos medius im Feilenforst, nördlicher Landkreis Pfaffenhofen an der Ilm Miriam Hansbauer und Wilfried Langer Summary During spring 2001 a research was conducted about the occurrence of the Middle Spotted Woodpecker (Dendrocopos medius) in the northern part of the Feilenforst, district of Pfaffenhofen. 21 territories of the woodpecker could be investigated in the 588 ha study area. The study area consists mainly of deciduous wood. In many parts a special form of forestry is used there to keep the original type of woods. An obvious correlation was found between these special areas and the occurrence of the Middle Spotted Woodpecker. He occurs mainly in areas where oaks have an age of 100-150 years. He rather avoids coniferous forests. 1. Einleitung 1984 in Flade & Miech 1986).

  • Key Largo Wastewater Treatment District Biosolids Digester Project Description
    Key Largo Wastewater Treatment District Biosolids Digester Project Description The project consists of the work as depicted in the Contract Documents, including the plans and specifications. This narrative description of the work is intended only to assist in the general understanding of the scope of work and is not intended to modify the scope of work as defined in the plans and specifications. Overview The work generally consists of demolition of several existing concrete structures, followed by construction of a pre-stressed concrete digester tank and associated equipment, piping and electrical elements. Following completion of construction and testing of the digester system, the WWTP staff will transfer biosolids from the existing tank currently being used as a digester, and the new digester will be placed into service. The work also includes cleaning of the existing digester tank and installation of equipment to convert the tank into its original intended use as Sequencing Batch Reactor #3. After the tank is cleaned, the Engineer will inspect the tank and determine if any repairs are needed. The Contractor will then install the SBR equipment provided by the District and install the influent piping as shown on the plans. The nutrient analyzers will also be installed. Following conversion of the tank to an SBR, the District staff will place the SBR into service and divert the flow from SBR #2 into SBR #3 for treatment. The Contractor will then clean SBR #2 for inspection by the Engineer and then proceed with the influent piping modifications and installation of the nutrient analyzers. When SBR #2 is completed, the District staff will transfer the flow from SBR #1 to SBR #2, allowing the Contractor to commence with the same scope of work on SBR #1.

  • Analysis of Greenhouse Gas Emissions in Centralized And
    water Article Analysis of Greenhouse Gas Emissions in Centralized and Decentralized Water Reclamation with Resource Recovery Strategies in Leh Town, Ladakh, India, and Potential for Their Reduction in Context of the Water–Energy–Food Nexus Mounia Lahmouri, Jörg E. Drewes and Daphne Gondhalekar * Chair of Urban Water Systems Engineering, Department of Civil, Geo and Environmental Engineering, Technical University of Munich, 80333 München, Germany; [email protected] (M.L.); [email protected] (J.E.D.) * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 2 February 2019; Accepted: 10 April 2019; Published: 29 April 2019 Abstract: With the constant increase of population and urbanization worldwide, stress on water, energy, and food resources is growing. Climate change constitutes a source of vulnerability, raising the importance of implementing actions to mitigate it. Within this, the water and wastewater sector represents an important source of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, during both the construction and operation phase. The scope of this study is to analyze the GHG emissions from the current and future water supply scheme, as well as to draw a comparison between possible water reclamation with resource recovery scenarios in the town Leh in India: a centralized scheme, a partly centralized combined with a decentralized scheme, and a household level approach. Precise values of emission factors, based on the IPCC Guidelines for National Greenhouse Gas Inventories, previous studies, and Ecoinvent database, have been adopted to quantify the different emissions. Potential sources of reduction of GHG emissions through sludge and biogas utilization have been identified and quantified to seize their ability to mitigate the carbon footprint of the water and wastewater sector.
