It is named after the 14th-century Ottoman conqueror Kırca Ali, from the Turkish name Kırca and the Islamic name Ali, derived from an Arabic root which means "high" or "Elevated". Location Kardzhali is located in the low eastern part of Rhodope Mountains, on both banks of the river Arda between the Kardzhali Reservoir to the west and the Studen Kladenets Reservoir to the east. The town is 260 km (162 mi) southeast of Sofia. It has a crossroad position from Thrace to the Aegean Sea — part of European transportation route 9, via the Makaza mountain pass. Economy Formerly Kardzhali was a tobacco processing center, but for economic reasons all of the communist era industrial plants are no longer operative. In 2007 in the city were opened the hypermarkets Technomarket, Billa , LIDL, and Technopolis. In 2014 a hypermarket of the chain Kaufland opened too. The city's new marketplace was complete in 2007. Economy The percentage of the labour force working in agriculture increased from 41% to 47% in just 7 years. Kardzhali has the second highest percentage of people working in agriculture, after Silistra Province. Culture and tourism Mosque and tomb of the founder of the modern city of Kardzhali is situated in the old city near the marketplace. The Thracian town of Perperikon is located near the city on a rock high above the valley. It is interesting for the fact that it is cut in the rock. The town clock is unique in Bulgaria because it sounds Bulgarian revolutionary songs every hour. The Kardzhali Museum of History has one of the The Thracian town of Perperikon most extensive exhibitions in Southern Bulgaria. Dams The town is situated on the north and south banks of river Arda and it is bordered to the west by Kardzhali Dam, and by Studen Kladenets Dam to the east. The concrete wall of the Kardzhali Dam is located about two kilometers (1.2 miles) upstream from that bridge. The banks of the river running through the town have been adjusted by the recently completed Water Mirror reservoir, creating an environment for water sports and recreational activities. Water Mirror reservoir Around the city The Stone Wedding is located about 4 kilometers east of the town of Kardzhali, near the village of Zimzelen. It is one of the most interesting rock formations of the so-called Kardzhali pyramids, located in the eastern Rhodope mountain. The rock formations reach 10 meters in height. The Stone Wedding Around the city The Stone Mushrooms are rock formations, located east of the village of Beli Plast, at the road, connecting Kardzhali with Haskovo. The rock formations have the shape of natural mushrooms – their stalks are pink, and the caps are green. The height of the mushroom stalks and the width of the caps are up to 2.5 meters. The Stone Mushrooms Around the city The Monyak Fortress is in the Rhodope Mountains, 11 km east of the town Kardzhali near the village of Shiroko Pole, and is 586 meters above sea level. It was built during the 12th and 13th centuries. It is one of the highest and largest Medieval fortresses in the Rhodopes, with a protected walled area of 50 hectares. The Monyak Fortress Beginning The beginning of economic education in Kardzhali started in 1961/62 , when by order of the Ministry of Education were opened two economic classes within an admission after the seventh grade of 5 years at SPU “Ch.

    Treating Two 18Th Century Maps of the Danube in Association with Google-Provided Imagery

    ON THE DIGITAL REVIVAL OF HISTORIC CARTOGRAPHY: TREATING TWO 18TH CENTURY MAPS OF THE DANUBE IN ASSOCIATION WITH GOOGLE-PROVIDED IMAGERY Evangelos Livieratos Angeliki Tsorlini Maria Pazarli [email protected] Chrysoula Boutoura Myron Myridis Aristotle University of Thessaloniki Faculty of Surveying Engineering University Campus, Box 497 GRE - 541 24 Thessaloniki, Greece Abstract The great navigable Danube River (known as the Istros River to the Ancient Greeks and as one of the crucial ends of the Roman Empire northern territories) is an emblematic fluvial feature of the overall European historic and cultural heritage in the large. Originating in the German Black Forest as two small rivers (Brigach and Breg) converging at the town of Donaueschingen, Danube is flowing for almost 2850 km mainly eastwards, passing through ten states (Germany, Austria, Slovakia, Hungary, Croatia, Serbia, Romania, Bulgaria, Moldova and Ukraine) and four European capitals (Vienna, Bratislava, Budapest and Belgrade) with embouchure in the west coasts of the Black Sea via the Danube Delta, mainly in Romania. Danube played a profound role in the European political, social, economic and cultural history influencing in a multifold manner the heritage of many European nations, some of those without even a physical connection with the River, as it is the case of the Greeks, to whom the Danube is a reference to their own 18th century Enlightenment movement. Due to Danube’s important role in History, the extensive emphasis to its cartographic depiction was obviously a conditio sine qua non especially in the 17th and 18th century European cartography. In this paper, taking advantage of the modern digital technologies as applied in the recently established domain of cartographic heritage, two important and historically significant 18th century maps of the Danube are comparatively discussed in view also to the reference possibilities available today in relevant studies by the digital maps offered by powerful providers as e.g.
  • Floods in Bulgaria

    Floods in Bulgaria

    1 Floods in Bulgaria Gergov, George, Filkov, Ivan, Karagiozova, Tzviatka, Bardarska, Galia, Pencheva, Katia National Institute of Meteorology and Hydrology Sofia, Bulgaria [email protected] Resume We distinguish the torrent floods of rivers as short-termed phenomena, lasting generally for only several hours and in very rare cases – for up to several days. Appropriate scientific methods for their forecasting are lacking. The short duration of the torrent floods, including their formation, do not make possible the organization of effective protection and safety measures. In many cases the inhabitants does not possess the required training to take-in urgent evacuation or adequate reaction. Torrential rainfalls of intensity up to 0.420-0.480 mm/min and duration of up to 15-29 min. predominate. The frequency of rainfalls above 0.300 mm/min accounts between 20-30 and 50-60 cases per year, while in the case of those with intensity above 0.600 mm/min the frequency diminishes to between 7-10 and 25-30 cases per year. The available hydrological information reveals, that irrespective of the ascending drought the frequency and dimensions of the torrent floods remain unchanged. The biggest flood, ever recorded in Bulgaria, was that of 31st aug.-01st sept.1858 along the Maritsa River in Bulgaria when the river banks in the town of Plovdiv have been flooded by 1-1.2 m. of water. The most ancient data for a devastating flood comes from the Turkish novelist Hadji Halfa. It concerns the Edirne (Odrin) flood in 1361. Numerous digital parameters of the floods are used in hydrology, like for instance, time of rise and time of fall of the flood, achieved water level maximum, average and maximum flow speed of the water current, size and duration of the flood, frequency and duration of the emergence, ingredient of the free water surface, time of concentration and time of travel (propagation) of the high flood wave, depth and intensity of the rainfall, state of the ground cover, preliminary moisture content of the watershed basin, etc.

    Study of the Bioaccumulation of Heavy Metals in Astacus Leptodactylus in Some Areas of the Kardzhali Dam

    TRADITION AND MODERNITY IN VETERINARY MEDICINE, 2018, vol. 3, No 2(5): 90–93 STUDY OF THE BIOACCUMULATION OF HEAVY METALS IN ASTACUS LEPTODACTYLUS IN SOME AREAS OF THE KARDZHALI DAM Desislava Arnaudova, Aneliya Pavlova, Atanas Arnaudov Faculty of Biology, University of Plovdiv “Paisii Hilendarski”, Plovdiv, Bulgaria E-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT It is examined the contents of lead, cadmium and nickel in the water of Kardzhali dam, as well as the bioaccumulation of the heavy metals in two organs – liver and muscles of Astacus leptodactylus. In tissue samples is reported increasing of cadmium in samples of liver. The bioaccumulation coefficient was calculated on the basis of the average content of lead, cadmium and nickel in the organs of Astacus leptodactylus. We recorded that the studied crayfish are macroconcentrators for cadmium. The analyzes have shown that lake crayfish to be defined as a biomarker in toxicity testing in contami- nated waters. Key words: heavy metals, Astacus leptodactylus, crayfish, bioaccumulation. Introduction Depending on the water sites’ location by the source of contamination, different levels of lead, cadmium and nickel accumulation have been found in the tissues of crayfish (7). The concentration of heavy metals in the organs of the lake crawfish Astacus leptodactylus Eschscholtz, 1823 and other crayfish has been researched by 1, 3, 4, 6, 10, 11, 13 etc., but there are no data on the transfer of lead, cadmium and nickel in Astacus leptodactylus along the “water– crayfish” in the food chain. The research was made in different zones of the Kardzhali dam which is anthropogenically influenced by heavy metals.

BACKGROUND AND SUMMARY I Srebarna is a fresh-water lake adjacent to the Danube, covering an area of 600 ha. It provides nesting grounds to 99 species of birds and seasonal habitat to an additional 80 species of migratory birds; Srebarna is protected by international legislation, under the Convention on Wetlands of I International Importance (Ramsar Convention). The lake is surrounded by hills which provide a natural boundary and provide an ideal means for I observing the waterfowl (see attached data sheet for additional details). 6. INTEGRITY I The boundaries are clear and explicit; the area is strictly protected (with only carefully-controlled scientific research allowed). The site has been established as a biosphere reserve and a Ramsar site. The site is relatively small, so the quantities of breeding pairs are low and probably I insufficient in themselves to maintain any of the species; only if other areas are also protected can the species be expected to survive.
