Obmo~je ob spodnjem toku reke Dragonje je od 1991 dalje obmejna pokrajina in vro~a to~ka v mejnem sporu med Hrva{ko in Slovenijo. Primo` Pipan, Border dispute between Croatia and Slovenia along the lower reaches of the Dragonja River Border dispute between Croatia and Slovenia along the lower reaches of the Dragonja River DOI: 10.3986.AGS48205 UDC: 911.3:341.222(497.4:497.5) COBISS: 1.02 ABSTRACT: The paper discusses border dispute between Croatia and Slovenia along the lower reaches of the Dragonja River, acute since the two countries gained independence in 1991. It is the most hotly contested border dispute point between the two countries except for the maritime border in Bay of Piran. The area with small villages of Mlini-[krile, Bu`ini and [kodelin is known in the literature as the »area along the Dragonja River«, »the area of double records« or »the case of four villages«. The paper begins by describing rea- sons for the southern border of the Municipality of Piran from geographic and economic aspects. It focuses on changes of borders from the legal aspect between and after World War Two.

Bataillon, cc63, 34095 Montpellier Cedex 5, France. Summary: The existence of cryptic salinity-related phenotypes has been hypothesized in the “euryhaline” sea bass (Dicen- trarchus labrax). How differential osmoregulation costs between freshwater and saltwater environments affect fitness and phenotypic variation is misunderstood in this species. During an experiment lasting around five months, we investigated changes in the whole body mass and in the expression of growth-related genes (insulin-like growth factor 1 [IGF-1]; growth hormone receptor [GHR]) in the intestine and the liver of sea bass thriving in sea water (SSW), successfully acclimated to freshwater (SFW), and unsuccessfully acclimated to freshwater (UFW). Albeit non-significant, a trend toward change in body mass was demonstrated among SSW, UFW and SFW fish, suggesting that SSW fish were a mixture of the other phe- notypes. Several mortality peaks were observed during the experiment, with batches of UFW fish showing higher expression in the osmoregulatory intestine due to down-regulation of genes in the liver and significant up-regulation of GHR in the intestine compared with SFW fish.

  • Maritime Museums and the Representation of Cultural Boundaries in the Upper Adriatic
    Nar. umjet. 43/1, 2006, pp. 15-39, P. Ballinger, Lines in the Water, Peoples on the Map… Original scientific paper Received: 10th Jan. 2006 Accepted: 13th March 2006 UDK 341.222:556.1(497.5-3) PAMELA BALLINGER Department of Sociology and Anthropology, Bowdoin College, Brunswick LINES IN THE WATER, PEOPLES ON THE MAP: MARITIME MUSEUMS AND THE REPRESENTATION OF CULTURAL BOUNDARIES IN THE UPPER ADRIATIC This article explores the relationship between political and symbolic borders in the Gulf of Trieste. The author inquires into the persistence of understandings that map peoples onto specific territories and terrains, such as the stereotypical association of Italians with the coast and Slavic peoples (Slovenes and Croats) with the rural interior. Focusing on representations of maritime culture along two contentious political borders – that between Italy and Slovenia and that between Slovenia and Croatia – the analysis demonstrates that museums become powerful sites for the reproduction of the coast/interior cultural boundary, even when the specific ethnic groups it maps onto change. Keywords: Adriatic, Istria, borders, maritime culture, museums, representations, stereotypes In The Mediterranean and the Mediterranean World in the Age of Philip II, Fernand Braudel famously argued that, at least into the 17th century, "The Adriatic is perhaps the most unified of all the regions of the sea" (Braudel 1972:125).1 In the succeeding centuries, however, the Adriatic has often been imagined as constituting a border zone between culture areas, languages, religions, and environments. In the 19th century, distinctions between peoples living along the coast and in the interior of the Eastern Adriatic increasingly became mapped onto ethno-national divisions even as the Habsburg Empire fostered a multi-ethnic maritime culture centered on Trieste/Trst and 1 The research for this article was made possible by monies from the Rusack Fund at the Coastal Studies Center at Bowdoin College.

  • D4.3 3 Newsletter 3 Aquatt AQUAEXCEL 2020 Deliverable D4.3 3
    D4.3_3 Newsletter 3 AquaTT AQUAEXCEL 2020 Deliverable D4.3_3 Executive Summary Objectives The objective of the newsletter is to facilitate communication and dissemination of the AQUAEXCEL 2020 project ensuring a widespread awareness to all stakeholders. This third newsletter aims to communicate newest AQUAEXCEL 2020 research advances as well as its Transnational Access (TNA) and training course programme, and to introduce another one of the studied species in AQUAEXCEL 2020 and other information of interest. Rationale: AquaTT designed the newsletter following the brand identity of the project (logo, characterising project colours, etc). Content has been based on activities carried out in the project so far like events and research findings, the TNA programme, one of the aquaculture species and general information of interest. The draft newsletter was sent to all AQUAEXCEL 2020 partners to validate the content of the third newsletter. The final newsletter has been sent out to the project partners, stakeholder database contacts and any other interested individuals. The AQUAEXCEL 2020 project website and the collaborative platform will store the newsletter archive. Main Results: The third AQUAEXCEL 2020 newsletter is 8 pages long and features ‘AQUAEXCEL2020 News and Highlights’ like a success story from the TNA programme of AQUAEXCEL 2020 , new publications and feature promotional articles, as well as past events like the Industry & Research Advisory Panel (IRAP) meeting and upcoming events. Emphasis is on the major components of AQUAEXCEL 2020 , the ‘TNA programme’ including the featured success story, the next Calls for Access and a feature of a partner’s TNA facility, as well as an announcement of the ‘Training Courses’.
