This is the first of two volumes that together provide an integrated picture of the Montenegrin Adriatic coast, presenting the natural components of the system as well as the chemical composition and chemical processes in the extended area. This book describes the biology and ecology of the high seas of the Montenegrin coast, with a special focus on their biodiversity, flora and fauna, fisheries, mariculture, marine reptiles and mammals. The data has been collected through national and international projects over the last few decades and provides the reader with models and recommendations for the protection of this vital region of the Adriatic coast, as well as scientific recommendations for the sustainable use of its biological resources. Given the breadth and depth of its coverage, the book offers an invaluable source of information for researchers, students and environmental managers alike.

This is the second of two volumes that together provide an integrated picture of the Montenegrin Adriatic coast, presenting the natural components of the system as well as the chemical composition and chemical processes in the extended area. This book covers all aspects of marine chemistry such as the hydrographic and oceanographic characteristics of seawater, the toxicity of heavy metals in the marine environment, the quality of marinas and maritime areas, and the legal regime for protecting the marine environment from pollution. Given the breadth and depth of its coverage, the book offers an invaluable source of information for researchers, students and environmental managers alike.
This book focuses on environmental aspects of Boka Kotorska Bay in Montenegro (South Adriatic Sea), an area that has been shaped by seasonal tourism, and explores the use and limitations of its natural resources. The individual chapters highlight its geographic and oceanographic characteristics, climate, history and development, biology, fisheries, agriculture, coastal zones, shipping, marine tourism and pollution. Above all, the environmental impact of tourism on marine, coastal and shoreline areas and the resulting conflicts are discussed in detail. The volume is intended for specialists working in various fields of environmental sciences and ecology, water resources and management, land reclamation and agriculture, and regional climate change.
The Scientific Advisory Committee of the GFCM, in its twelfth session reviewed the activities and results obtained by its subsidiary bodies along with the proposals of the Coordinating Meeting of the Sub-Committees, as well as the achievements by the FAO regional projects in support of the GFCM activities. It further discussed several important topics including recreational fisheries, improvement of gear selectivity and reduction of bycatch, the impact of climate change, the impact of alien species on fisheries and other issues such as the exploitation of red corals, the status of elasmobranch species and the follow-up on fisheries-restricted areas.

Europa neu zu denken setzt die Beantwortung der Frage voraus, welches Europa wir eigentlich wollen. Die Zukunft ist nicht etwas, das sich ohne unser Zutun quasi von selbst ereignet. Sie ist vielmehr etwas, das erst durch unser eigenes Mitwirken, durch unser Wissen und Nichtwissen, unsere Hoffnungen und Befürchtungen Gestalt annehmen kann. Die einzelnen Beiträge sind überarbeitete Fassungen zweier Tagungen, die in Triest stattfanden. Drei Problembereiche werden diskutiert: Das Laboratorium Europa, Europäische Künste, Erzählungen, Sprachen sowie Europäische Lebenswelt und Raum. Dabei spielen die Dialektik von Herkunft und Zukunft sowie die Kreativität von Widersprüchen und Synergien eine große Rolle. Mit Beiträgen von Henning Ottmann, Helga Rabl-Stadler, Hedwig Kainberger, Rut Bernardi, Claudio Magris, Volker Gerhardt, Christiane Feuerstein, Blanka Stipetic u. v. m.
