Germany) Felix Schlagintweit Lerchenauerstr. 167, D-80935 München, German; ([email protected]) doi:104154/gc.2011.16 GeologiaGeologia CroaticaCroatica AB STRA CT The present paper compiles an up-to-date taxonomic inventory of dasycladalean green algae of the Kimmeridgian- Early Berriasian Plassen Carbonate Platform and their resediments in basinal sediments (e.g., Barmstein Limestone, Sillenkopf Formation) of the Northern Calcareous Alps of Austria (p.p. Germany). Today, the Plassen Carbonate Platform sensu lato (or Plassen Group) is divided into three independent carbonate platforms with radiolarite deep- water basins between: the Wolfgangsee Carbonate Platform to the north, the Plassen Carbonate Platform sensu stric- to in a central position and the Lärchberg Carbonate Platform to the south. All together 42 taxa are reported from these platforms and associated resediments, each shortly commented and illustrated. Amongst these, there are taxa common in all three platforms, others exhibit restricted distributions. These peculiarities can be explained by the dif- ferent lithostratigraphic and overall geodynamic evolution of the three platforms. In many cases, it allows the assign- ment of resediments in basinal series to a certain

    1 “Transnational Cooperation is an indispensable prerequisite to address challenges in tourism and transport – as touristic and transport activities are transnational as well. Mountainous Areas are affected more strongly, so we set a focus to these sensitive regions within ACCESS2MOUNTAIN. Developing sustainable transport solutions is also about destroying boundaries and starting to cooperate.” Günther Lichtblau, Environment Agency Austria (Lead Partner) Sustainable Mobility and Tourism in Sensitive Areas of the Alps and the Carpathians 2 Preface Andrä Rupprechter Austrian Federal Minister for Agriculture, Forestry, Environment and Water Management I have a clear objective: Austria is to be a country with a high quality of life. Pure air, diversity in nature, clean water and high-quality foodstuffs make Austria a liveable country and attract numerous guests. Tourism produces about 5% of the world’s total CO2 emissions. Tourism is, therefore, one of causes of climate change and, on the other hand, it is also affected by it. One of the major sources of emissions associated with tourism is photo source: BMLFUW / photonews.at transport, especially transport by car – as the car is the most frequently used mode of transport for travelling to and departing from tourist destinations. Air pollutants, noise and human interference with the natural landscape have a profound impact on the fauna and flora of sensitive regions such as mountain areas, and they have a major impact on human health. Austria attaches particular importance to the protection of these sensitive areas. Therefore, and because mobility is by its very nature a transregional matter, a transnational approach is required. The Federal Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry, Environment and Water Management has initiated and supported transnational projects which are aimed at the implementation of environment-friendly and sustainable solutions in tourist regions, such as ACCESS2MOUNTAIN, for several years.
