For the first time the carabid fauna of the area of Cape Emine (the middle of the Bulgarian Black sea coast) was studied. Over the period 2010 – 2012 adult carabid beetles were collected. Investigations were performed at 13 sampling sites and pitfall traps were used. During the study a total of 12618 specimens were captured. They belonged to 134 species, classified into 46 genera, 18 tribes, and 3 subfamilies. Dyschirius rufipes Dejean, 1825 and Laemostenus janthinus (Duftschmid, 1812) were reported as new species for the carabid fauna of Bulgaria. Three species were new for the fauna of the Bulgarian Black Sea coast. Fifty-four species were defined as new for the area of Cape Emine. Two endemics were found: Pterostichus merkli Frivaldszky, 1879 (Bulgarian endemic) and Cychrus semigranosus balcanicus Hopffgarten, 1881 (Balkan endemic). Species of ground beetles were characterized and classified according to their zoogeographical belonging, degree of endemism and rarity, habitat and humidity preferences; the life forms they refer to were determined.

The Balkan Mountains cross the entire country reaching to the edge of the Black Sea at Cape Emine, dividing the 378 km of coastline into southern and northern sections. The northern Black Sea Coast features rocky headlands where the sea abuts cliffs up to 70 metres high. The southern coast is renowned for its wide sandy beaches, known as the Bulgarian Riviera. Saline and brackish lakes, lagoons, and marshes along the coast host a variety of wildlife. At Risk Wildlife In this section, some individual wildlife species are mentioned followed by a letter in parentheses. These are species included in the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species within the top three categories of risk - Vulnerable to extinction (V), Endangered (E) or Critically Endangered (CR). Avian species – Much of the coast of Bulgaria hosts migratory and breeding waterbirds. Including places such as Strandzha, the Ropotamo Complex and Bakarlaka whose coastal areas and nearshore waters attract tens of thousands of storks. The brackish lagoon of the Mandra-Poda Complex near Bourgas, in addition to being another migratory stopover, is important breeding waterbird habitat and regularly hosts listed species such as the slender- billed curlew (CR) and the white-headed duck (E).

  • UNDERWATER ARCHAEOLOGY at NESEBAR, ANCIENT MESAMBRIA (BLACK SEA), BULGARIA 2018 Director: Dr
    ANNUAL REPORT: UNDERWATER ARCHAEOLOGY AT NESEBAR, ANCIENT MESAMBRIA (BLACK SEA), BULGARIA 2018 Director: Dr. Nayden Prahov, archaeologist at the National Institute of Archaeology with Museum, Bulgarian Academy of Sciences; Balkan Heritage Foundation Program Director ([email protected]) Students and instructors preparing for the field work The field school took place in Nesebar, Bulgaria (ancient Mesambria) on the Black Sea coast from May 25 to June 21, 2018. This was the first season of the project, which is an initiative of the Balkan Heritage Foundation in partnership with the Institute for Field Research (BHF-IFR Joint Program) and the Bulgarian Centre for Underwater Archaeology. The goal of the field school was to provide experience and training in underwater and maritime archaeology through participation in three ongoing research and conservation projects. The major research project was the investigation of the submerged heritage of Nesebar, ancient Mesambria. The settlement was established by Thracian tribes, but at the end of 6th century Dorian colonizers settled here and founded a Greek colony which grew quickly and became one of the most powerful towns along the western Black Sea Coast in the Classical, Hellenistic, Roman and Byzantine era, as well as in the Middle Ages and the Ottoman period. Underwater studies in the region of Nesebar began in 1960. Sixteen underwater archaeological seasons were conducted in total (1960-1983 and 2017). During these studies, it was found that significant parts of the ancient town today are below the sea level. Ruins of fortification walls, towers, staircases, gates and other structures from the pre-Roman era, Late Antiquity and the Middle Ages, were traced in various sectors around the peninsula.

  • Projects Without Project Ecologies: Experiments in Regional Governance from the Netherlands to Bulgaria and Back
    Projects without Project Ecologies: Experiments in Regional Governance from the Netherlands to Bulgaria and Back Elena Boyanova Krumova Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2012 © 2012 Elena Krumova All rights reserved ABSTRACT Projects without Project Ecologies: Experiments in Regional Governance from the Netherlands to Bulgaria and Back Elena Boyanova Krumova This dissertation investigates the efforts of a temporary organization, or a project, to assemble a set of diverse stakeholders to deliberate and chart a territorial plan for the Black Sea coastal region in Bulgaria. The project lasted two years and tried to apply the integrated method of regional planning developed in the area around the port of Rotterdam. It was led by a Dutch consultant and a team of Dutch and Bulgarian environmental experts. The main question the dissertation addresses is how a temporary organization operates in an environment that provides little support for its actions. All new organizations, but temporary ones in particular, have a high risk of failure due to limited time to set roles for their members, establish trust among them, and build a common identity. Temporary organizations have been shown to rely on role structures, identities, and sources of trust outside of the organization itself. Project ecologies comprised of personal and organizational ties built around industries and geographical areas facilitate their work. Usually the existence of such ecologies is assumed in research on organizations. There are few studies addressing the question how such ecologies might come into being or how an organization that lacks the support of ecologies might try to survive.
