  • 2017 Conservation Outlook Assessment (Archived)
    IUCN World Heritage Outlook: https://worldheritageoutlook.iucn.org/ Lena Pillars Nature Park - 2017 Conservation Outlook Assessment (archived) IUCN Conservation Outlook Assessment 2017 (archived) Finalised on 09 November 2017 Please note: this is an archived Conservation Outlook Assessment for Lena Pillars Nature Park. To access the most up-to-date Conservation Outlook Assessment for this site, please visit https://www.worldheritageoutlook.iucn.org. Lena Pillars Nature Park SITE INFORMATION Country: Russian Federation Inscribed in: 2012 Criteria: (viii) Site description: Lena Pillars Nature Park is marked by spectacular rock pillars that reach a height of approximately 100 m along the banks of the Lena River in the central part of the Sakha Republic (Yakutia). They were produced by the region’s extreme continental climate with an annual temperature range of almost 100 degrees Celsius (from –60 °C in winter to +40 °C in summer). The pillars form rocky buttresses isolated from each other by deep and steep gullies developed by frost shattering directed along intervening joints. Penetration of water from the surface has facilitated cryogenic processes (freeze-thaw action), which have widened gullies between pillars leading to their isolation. Fluvial processes are also critical to the pillars. The site also contains a wealth of Cambrian fossil remains of numerous species, some of them unique. © UNESCO IUCN World Heritage Outlook: https://worldheritageoutlook.iucn.org/ Lena Pillars Nature Park - 2017 Conservation Outlook Assessment (archived) SUMMARY 2017 Conservation Outlook Good Because of the relatively robust nature of the values contributing to the OUV of Lena Pillars Nature Park, the remoteness and lack of inhabitants of the site, and the existing protection and management regime, which is effective overall in spite of some low concern, the overall conservation outlook of Lena Pillars Nature Park is assessed as good.

  • Struve Geodetic Arc Joins World Heritage List
    ARTICLE Struve Geodetic Arc Joins World Heritage List 15th July, Durban, South Africa The World Heritage Committee chaired by Themba Wakashe, South Africa’s deputy director-general for Heritage and National Archives has inscribed seventeen cultural sites on the UNESCO World Heritage List. The nominations took place on 15th July at a meeting in Durban, South Africa. The World Heritage List now numbers 812 sites in total, including 628 cultural, 160 natural and 24 mixed sites, in 137 States. Bahrain, the Republic of Moldova and Bosnia and Herzegovina enter the List for the first time. The sites inscribed during the current session of the World Heritage Committee include three transboundary sites and extensions to six sites that were already on the List. The Struve Geodetic Arc is the first survey-site on the list. The countries hosting the Struve Geodetic Arc are Belarus, Estonia, Finland, Latvia, Lithuania, Norway, the Republic of Moldova, the Russian Federation, Sweden and Ukraine. The Struve Geo- detic Arc is a chain of survey triangulations stretching from Hammerfest in Norway to the Black Sea, through ten countries and over 2,820km. These are the points of a survey carried out between 1816 and 1855 by the astronomer Friedrich Georg Wilhelm Struve and represent the first accurate measuring of a long segment of a meridian. This helped establish the exact size and shape of our planet and marked an important step in the development of earth sciences and topographic mapping. It is an extraordinary example of scientific collaboration among scientists from different countries, and of collaboration between monarchs, for a scientific cause.

The purpose of this study is to determine the development prospects of the Last Chance Tourism, as one of the directions of ecological tourism. To implement this study, the authors of the article used the methods of data systematization, content analysis, expert assessments and other scientific approaches, which allow to comprehensively consider the problem under study. The authors propose a refined definition of “eco- tourism” by referring to the results of the analysis of existing research. We give the characteristics of tourists, who are attracted by the objects of “Last Chance Tourism”.

  • The Struve Geodetic Arc and Its Possible Connections to the Arc of the 30Th Meridian in Africa
    The Struve Geodetic Arc and Its Possible Connections to the Arc of the 30th Meridian in Africa James R SMITH, United Kingdom Keywords. Arc, Struve, 30th Arc, UNESCO SUMMARY This paper discusses the possible connections between the Struve Geodetic Arc and the Arc of the 39th Meridian in East Africa. Was the proposal by Otto Struve in 1868 carried out? If so, where are the results, if not, why not? Brief mention is made of the various later connections from the Struve Arc in Belarus to North Africa and hence a join in Egypt to the Arc of the 30th Meridian.
