Recent luminescence dating and geochemical analysis revealed that the sequence is made up of two compositionally slightly different phases representing sedimentation during Marine Isotope Stages (MIS) 3 and 4 separated by a ca. 7-15 ka-long hiatus. We investigated the bulk mineralogical composition of the sediment to better characterise the compositional differences, and analysed modern stream sediments to constrain the provenance from different catchments. The modern stream sediments closely match expectations based on catchment geology besides an overrepresentation of dolomite in several catchments, likely attributable to the greater sediment generation potential of dolostone based on its physical and petro- graphic properties.

  • Phleum Commutatum and Ph. Rhaeticum (Poaceae) in the Eastern Alps: Characteristics and Distribution List of Seen Specimens
    Phleum commutatum and Ph. rhaeticum (Poaceae) in the Eastern Alps: Characteristics and Distribution List of Seen Specimens By Kurt ZERNIG Abteilung für Botanik, Landesmuseum Joanneum, Raubergasse 10, A-8010 Graz, e-mail: [email protected] Published May 9, 2005 For details see: Phyton (Horn, Austria) 45 (1): 65–79. Summary The two species of Phleum alpinum group – Ph. commutatum GAUDIN and Ph. rhaeticum (HUMPHRIES) RAUSCHERT – were investigated. They can be differentiated morphologically by the presence (Ph. rhaeticum) or absence (Ph. commutatum) of ciliae on the awns on the glumes. But this character turned out to be insufficient for populations which have one or few cilia on the base of awns. Some other morphological characters were tested, if and to what extent, they provide additional features to facilitate correct determination. The length of the anthers shows distinct differences between the two species: anthers of Ph. commutatum are (0.6) 0.7–1.2 (1.3) mm long, while those of Ph. rhaeticum measure (1.0) 1.3–2.0 (2.3) mm. Collection sites of more than 1200 revised herbarium specimens are localized and shown in dot maps. Ph. rhaeticum is very common and frequent in the central and southern regions of the Eastern Alps, towards the north it becomes rarer. It prefers pastures in the subalpine and alpine belt. Ph. commutatum, in contrast, grows especially in the alpine belt of the Central Alps, there forming part of the snow-bed vegetation. Towards the north it becomes more common, where it grows in moderate altitudes from 1500 m upwards.

The present FM (f.t.) was developed in cooperation with the German Bundeswehr (Bw) in order to ensure standardized training. In the Bw it is called C2-227/0-0-1550 “Gebirgsausbildung”. This FM (f.t.) is meant to provide knowledge and skills on: - geographical, geological, meteorological, and common basics for military operations in mountainous terrain, - safe and secure movements and survival in mountainous and high mountain regions, – mountain rescue, and – mountaineering equipment, which are preconditions for the accomplishment of military tasks.

  • Trekking Munich–Venice Part I Trip #2236 Scheduled 22 August–4 September 2022
    The Dream Way: Trekking Munich–Venice Part I Trip #2236 scheduled 22 August–4 September 2022 Der Traumpfad (“Dream Way” in German) from München to Venedig is like a modern day pilgrimage—a long walk to an iconic destination but without the religious overtones. It is one of the most popular trans-alpine treks, but little known outside the German speaking world. Prolific guide book author John Hayes writes that he has “crossed the Alps on foot many other times but this was the best.” The “Dream Way” links two of Europe’s most iconic destinations with a journey across some of the best scenery in the Alps. From the heart of Bavaria, from biergartens, wurst, and lederhosen, to the Adriatic and prosecco, fritto misto and tiramisù—it’s a journey across cultures as well as mountains. 1 The route’s origin has a unique history. Rather than being developed by a national alpine club, it was the invention of just one German man, Ludwig Grassler. The final route plan was set in 1974. Just like Wainwright’s famous ‘coast-to-coast’ walk across England, one man’s vision has resulted in many thousands of hikers following this route each year. One Journey in Two Parts over Two Years The entire trail is 569km (335mi) with 30,290m (93,900’) of elevation change. To manage the itinerary within the typically available vacation time of two weeks, we plan to section walk the trail over two years, two weeks per year: in 2022 from Munich in Germany, through Austria, to Pfunders in Italy.
