Creşterea rezilienţei prin formarea unei "culturi a siguranţei" la nivelul comunităţilor locale

Creşterea rezilienţei prin formarea unei "culturi a siguranţei" la nivelul comunităţilor locale

Author(s): Alina Chicoş,Alina HUZUI-STOICULESCU,Georgiana Toth / Language(s): Romanian Publication Year: 0

The concept of resilience is useful for understanding and analyzing the contemporary urban systems, to define new approaches and to establish new urban planning principles. From this perspective, the paper highlights the issue of territorial development of human settlements in the context of exposure to earthquakes, floods and landslides. Exploring the attitudes of social actors towards prevention policies and protection against certain disasters shows that the partnership between community and institutional structures is the solution for a sustainable development of these risk-prone territories. Consequently, a community-based "culture of safety" is expected to emerge based on an increased involvement of local people in prevention activities.

Капитали, топене на ледове и 2 градуса по Целзий

Author(s): Bistra Boeva / Language(s): Bulgarian

According to CLEPA (the European association of automotive suppliers), there are more than 3000 automotive suppliers in EU member countries, with 5mln employees and turnover of more than EUR 600 bln. In Bulgaria, there are more than a hundred companies that deliver components to big multinationals from the automotive sectors. The majority of local suppliers (first, second and third tier) are independent local and foreign companies, although subsidiaries of international first-tier suppliers function as well. Irrespective of certain difficulties in the field research, the findings show the following: - Foreign buyers are not interested in the environmental and social policies of local suppliers. The social and environmental impact of the suppliers within the local community is not an interest as well; - Foreign buyers do not embed in their contracts with the suppliers' requirements for compliance with ESG standards; - Local suppliers comply with the legally established norms about air pollution, the protection of soil and water and the management of the waste. How have we interpreted the above findings: buyers rely on local legislation and they do not go beyond. We did not manage to contact the procurement offices of foreign buyers and their boards. We tried to discover evidence in their annual reports and we interviewed the representative offices of big multinationals - European and Asian. Despite the fact that we received similar answers, we did not include them in our analysis. Our research proved the importance of the holistic approach when evaluating sustainable development policy of listed companies. The reverse mirror is not a research method only. It is another tool for evaluating the effectiveness of sustainable framework of corporate governance.

Geographical-Historical Analysis of the Impact of the 1883 Eruption of Krakatau Volcano on Weather in Serbia

Author(s): Milan Radovanović,Radomir J. Popović / Language(s): English Publication Year: 0

The eruption of Krakatau volcano in 1883 is one of the most powerful eruptions in the past nearly 150 years. Based on the average air temperatures in Belgrade from 1881 to 1886 and average maximum and minimum air temperatures in Šabac from 1883 to 1885, we have tried to analyze whether the mentioned eruption had an impact on weather and climate conditions in Serbia. Bearing in mind that the mentioned measurements were not standardized, we have also tried by analysis of the former official state media to determine whether there are potential signs of possible connection. It turned out that neither measured data nor news reports indicate unusual weather conditions. In other words, there is no evidence that would indicate that an extremely powerful eruption of Krakatau in 1883 caused any weather disturbances over Serbia.

Природный ландшафт поселения Картал в эпоху энеолита

Природный ландшафт поселения Картал в эпоху энеолита

Author(s): Igor V. Bruyako / Language(s): Russian Publication Year: 0

The author uses palynological data to offer a reconstruction of landscape and climate in the vicinity of the Eneolithic settlement of Kartal. The pollen section should be considered extremely valid, since it is made in buried soil. The period of the Bolgrad-Aldeni accounted for the climatic optimum of the Holocene. This fact has been repeatedly pointed out by experts. This warm and humid cycle of oceanic climate largely contributed to the development of agrarian cultures of the early Eneolithic. Termination of life in Kartal in the period of the Bolgrad-Aldeni and subsequent population gap, which falls on the second half of the VI Millennium (5500—5000 BP), based on available data, was not accompanied by any abrupt climatic fluctuations. However, by the time Cernavoda I population appeared in Kartal, the climatic situation had become much less comfortable than in the Gumelnita period. In the most general terms, we can talk about a much more continental climate, general aridity and, consequently, low humidity.

Today, because of the population growth, the tendency on cities and urbanization increase gradually. Depend on these tendencies, the requirements of planning and location of the settlements and facilities areas on cities are came up with the migration from rural areas to urban areas. In this process, in addition to physical and environmental factors especially the socio-economic factors should be regarded as main component of sustainable urbanization. And also sustainable policies for urban development created by local governances have an effective role. Furthermore, determination of the urban development areas through the cities, land use and land cover structures are required as well. However, both the industrial areas, military facilities, public facilities areas are located in core of the cities even if without sub-scale urban land use planning. So these areas have to be re-allocated with urban regeneration projects to support for better urbanization. Based on the evaluations mentioned above, this paper outlines the requirements and criteria for location of urban regeneration areas. And also it is comprised to some approaches for integrated urban regeneration projects for provide the sustainability.

Cartographic Analysis of the Radon Situation in the Environment

Cartographic Analysis of the Radon Situation in the Environment

Author(s): Renat Apkin / Language(s): English Publication Year: 0

According to UNSCEAR (United Nations Scientific Committee on the Effects of Atomic Radiations), no less than 10% of lung cancer diseases registered annually are caused by radon radiation. Born in the belly of the earth, the same gas, a class I cancirogen, increases the risk of non-cancerous diseases of the upper respiratory tract and cardiovascular diseases. The radon problem occupies an important place in the radioecological programs of the USA, Japan, Western Europe and Russia.However, the natural radiation varies in the background from location to location.In many countries, survey work is being carried out, including an assessment of the intensity of the radon hazards of sites allocated for construction.In Russia, the Radiation Safety Standards are stipulating that the concentration of radon in the air of residential premises should not exceed 200 Bq/m3; in Sweden, the maximum radon concentration is taken as 100 Bq/m3, in Finland and Canada - 400 Bq/m3, and in Germany and Great Britain - 200 Bq/m3. It is necessary to carefully choose the constructive site, with the minimum concentration of radon in the soil.Our purpose is to carry out a cartographic analysis of radon intake from soil in the territory of Kazan. An important component is the creation of unique maps based on the measurement of radon escalation.The practical significance of the work lies in the application of the results for making management decisions, in engineering and environmental surveys, for conducting hygienic assessments, or simply being used by citizens for informational purposes.

The long-term protection of cultural heritage is an essential condition for sustainable development and preservation of territorial identity, and good documentation and registration of heritage objects allows to know, preserve and transmit them over time to future generations. The recording of cultural heritage currently uses different techniques and methods of documentation, especially in the field of architecture and urban planning. For the documentation of historical sites, different methods can be used to obtain 3D digital models that offer the possibility of documenting in accordance with the preservation of the original architecture and local specifics, as well as the creation of 3D archives. This article highlights the technical ways of obtaining digital models of heritage architectural ensembles and presents a case study of the rehabilitation of the Cioabă Chințescu kula, Șiacu village, Slivilești commune, Gorj county.

Cross-curricular integration of geography and physical education in the case of mountain-oriented education

Cross-curricular integration of geography and physical education in the case of mountain-oriented education

Author(s): Tatjana Resnik Planinc / Language(s): English Publication Year: 0

Many years ago, Jacobs (1989) defined cross-curricular instruction as a conscious effort to apply knowledge, principles, and/or values to more than one academic discipline simultaneously. Today we know that when students see the connections between individual subject areas, the material becomes more relevant. There are many ways in which to integrate different subjects or content into a constructive holistic unit. The author presents an approach to mountain-oriented education that includes contributions from geography and physical education. Through the presentation of YOUrALPS (Educating Youth for the Alps: (re)connecting Youth and Mountain heritage for an inspiring future in the Alps) project results, the author discusses a cross-curricular approach in the school activities of both subjects when dealing with key issues viewed from different disciplinary perspectives. The author provides an educational vision through a proposal for effective teaching that aims to enable more successful learning and achievement by students. The proposal is based on cross-curricular investigations of the geography and physical education curricula (objectives, abilities, skills and competencies connected with the mountain-oriented topics of each discipline) and is enhanced with suggestions for integration either in indoor or outdoor activities. A survey of teachers who attended the Summer School on Mountain-Oriented Education (Slovenia, 2017) reveals that this type of integration requires – in addition to extensive planning and cooperation among teachers – a high degree of teacher commitment, which works well so long as there is high enthusiasm for the project.

POWER AND EMPOWERMENT IN OUTDOOR ENVIRONMENTAL EDUCATION PROGRAMS

POWER AND EMPOWERMENT IN OUTDOOR ENVIRONMENTAL EDUCATION PROGRAMS

Author(s): Jan Činčera,Petra Šimonová,Bruce Johnson,Roman Kroufek / Language(s): English Publication Year: 0

Student empowerment as an outcome of outdoor environmental education programs is connected with the question of who has control over these programs. In this chapter, we analyze how power is distributed among program designers, leaders, participating students, and accompanying teachers. We show that no model of dealing with the dynamic relationships among these program stakeholders can be considered wrong per se but that each brings with it particular implications for the other aspects of program design and implementation.

VALUES IN OUTDOOR ENVIRONMENTAL EDUCATION PROGRAMS: BETWEEN EDUCATION AND ADVOCACY

VALUES IN OUTDOOR ENVIRONMENTAL EDUCATION PROGRAMS: BETWEEN EDUCATION AND ADVOCACY

Author(s): Jan Činčera,Bruce Johnson,Roman Kroufek / Language(s): English Publication Year: 0

Should or shouldn’t outdoor environmental education programs promote particular values? This chapter focuses on the tension between trying to avoid manipulation and trying to pursue the aims of environmental education. We summarize the discussion of values in environmental education and outline Schwartz’s theory of universal values, then we analyze what program leaders think about values and how they deal with the issue in their practice. We argue that no education is value-free. Based on our research study, we found a normative, value-laden approach in outdoor environmental education to be controversial but still the most suitable approach for these types of programs. In the conclusion, we examine various methods of shaping environmental values in outdoor programs.

Šume u komorskim popisima Slavonije i njihovo značenje u gospodarstvu slavonskih vlastelinstava od kraja osmanske vlasti do sredine 18. stoljeća

Author(s): Milan Vrbanus / Language(s): Croatian Publication Year: 0

During the organization process of the Chamber administration in Slavonia at the end of the 17th and beginning of the 18th century, officials conducted censuses in 1698 and 1702. After that period the Court Chamber recorded Slavonia in 1721, 1736 and 1745/46. Apart from these censuses the Court Chamber recorded particular estates that were sold, i.e. donated to noble families. In the mid-18th century the owners had to make a list of estates so that the Vienna Court could determine the fees for their implementation. In the censuses from 1698 and 1702 the census takers described each village in every district, i.e. manor. During that process they determined the sizes of certain types of land (arable land, meadows, vineyards, forests, pastureland and gardens), yet they listed them in different types of measurement units related to human activity (how much could be ploughed in a morning, mown in a day, hoed in a day, walked in an hour), which makes it difficult for researchers to determine the proportions of particular areas of land. The census takers determined the wooded areas of the entire region, covered by the census, as well as the woody species of the forests. In 1698, they mainly used the terms acorning, timber, firewood for the woody species and only in the districts of Brod, Kobaš, Našice did they specify woody species according to the names of plant species (oak, beech, hornbeam, yew, poplar, willow, alder and others). In later censuses during the decameralization process the census takers used the aforementioned terms (acorning, timber, firewood). Apart from the asset strength of households and the size of land areas, the census takers determined the revenue of the estates and the value of all future estates. In that process they added the value of forests to the estate revenues determined by using certain mathematical models. On the basis of that model it is also possible to determine the significance of wooded areas in value and indirectly to the economy of manors at that time. The censuses from 1721 and 1736 do not provide data on the size of wooded areas or the amount of estate revenues; hence it is not possible to determine the significance of wooded areas in the economy of particular estates. The censuses of estates and estate revenues in the period from 1747 to 1751 provide also data on incomes of particular estates from estate forests. As per the censuses the estates gained income from forests by acorning and by using firewood and timber for the requirements of estates; these revenues were not recorded as estate revenues by the census takers. Through analysis of estate revenues it is possible to determine the significance of estate forests in the economy of then estates. From the censuses of the first half of the 18th century it can be concluded that the forests of Slavonian estates were not particularly significant when the values of the manors were being determined or for the economy of the manors throughout that period of time. Forests gained in importance during the first half of the 19th century.

Kartografski izvori za povijest slavonskih šuma u Državnom arhivu u Osijeku

Author(s): Danijel Jelaš / Language(s): Croatian Publication Year: 0

The cartographic materials of various provenance and purpose are among the fundamental and irreplaceable sources for the studies of historic landscapes. Whether they are maps of larger areas, countries and provinces, or land maps containing information on the use of land in the vicinity of settlements, they represent an inexhaustible source of data to researchers of historical geography, topography, demography, ecohistory, microhistory, economic history, etc. The forests, as one of the most prominent environmental constituents and a key natural and economic resource, are present in all types of maps, regardless of the time of their creation. This allows us to say that all of our knowledge on the Slavonian forests in the past, as well as the potential of further research, is greater thanks to a relatively large number of maps kept in the domestic and foreign heritage institutions. In the holdings of the State Archives in Osijek there are a large number of such sources for the present-day East Croatia, from the mid-17th to the end of the 20th century. They are a part of several archival units, that is, fonds and collections. The most valuable are the maps of East Croatian manors and the collections of land maps of Slavonia and Syrmia. Also, there are a number of cadastral maps for the broader surroundings of Osijek, Virovitica and Vukovar. The Collection of geographical maps contains very interesting maps of Slavonia and topographic maps from the late 19th century. Some other archival units comprise of various valuable and interesting maps as well. Although the aforesaid materials are not entirely unknown to experts, a comprehensive systematic study of the maps has not been conducted yet. This especially refers to the data on the forests of East Croatia.
