Abstract:
This paper presents the results of geomorphological research of the periglacial relief on mountain Crnook (1881 m) in Southeast Serbia. The results have showed the significant presence of modern periglacial morphology on this mountain which is developing in azonal conditions of a periglacial mountain environment. Research results from Crnook are significant because they represent the continuation of similar studies on medium-high mountains of Serbia (Kopaonik, Stara Planina). Based on a comparison of data from Kopaonik, Stara Planina and Crnook (Nesic D., Milincic M., 2004; Belij S. et al., 2008; Nesic D. et al., 2009; Nesic D., 2009), it can be concluded that in similar climatic frameworks with a significant share of anthropogenic activities, in terms of reducing the forest area in the highest parts of a mountain, similar modern periglacial processes develop on mountains as an indicator of azonal or boundary development framework of modern mountain periglacial environment. During 2006-07, the project "Modern periglacial geomorphic landforms on the mountains of Serbia" was initiated and the field research was conducted on the high mountains of Serbia (Stara Planina, Kopaonik, Kucaj, Beljanica, Zlatibor), and the mountains of Southeast Serbia (Vardenik, Besna Kobila, Dukat i Crnook).

Abstract:
The Palaeozoic terrains along the ridge and on the southern slopes of the Šipka part of the Middle Stara Planina Mountains comprise rocks referred to the following groups and formations: Riphean-Cambrian Berkovica Group (non-subdivided, and partly, Zdravčenica Formation), quartz-argillite formation (probably Ordovician), Lower Devonian limestone-pelitic formation and Upper Devonian rhythmic (flysch) psammo-aleuropelitic formation. The age of the Lower Devonian rocks was identified by conodonts. The newly defined Late Alpine tectonostratigraphic Šipka Superunit consists of the Bedek, Gradišnica, Stara Reka, Bogdan, Krân and Buzludža units. Ordovician and Devonian rocks complexes from the Šipka part of the Stara Planina Mountains range are compared with these from Western Stara Planina Mountains and the Kraište region.

Abstract:
The research was carried out in four beech communities in two mountains, Stara Planina and Vitosha in Western Bulgaria. The object of the study was dead beech wood. The aim was to determine the chemical composition and stocks of nutrients in different parts of dead wood in both mountains. The content of macro- and micronutrients in different fractions (stumps, standing, and lying dead wood) of dead wood was determined. The elements carbon (C), hydrogen (H), and nitrogen (N) were in the largest quantities of all the chemical elements studied. Next in order were Ca, Mg, K, and P. Micronutrients were arranged as follows in descending order of their content in the dead wood: Mn, Fe, Zn, Na, Pb, Cu. The calculated stocks of these elements showed that Stara Planina had a larger stock of elements than Vitosha mountain due to the greater amount of dead wood. The results proved that the dead wood is primarily a carbon reservoir, stored mainly in the lying dead wood fraction. The average carbon stock was 983 kg/ha for Vitosha and 4635 kg/ha for Stara Planina. The stocks of all other elements that are contained were several times less in quantity.

Abstract:
A total of 1723 species of 70 families have been established in the Stara Planina Mts. so far. The family Mycetophilidae is the most numerous (219 species or 12.7%), followed by Tachinidae (161 species or 9.3%), Muscidae (157 species or 9.1%) and Agromyzidae (101 species or 5.9%). The greatest number of species have been found in the Western Stara Planina Mts. (1087 species or 63.1%), in the belt of the mesophilic and xeromesophilic mixed forests (1432 species or 83.1%) and north of the central ridge (1289 species or 74.8%). The faunistic similarity between the separate parts of the mountain is scrutinised. The dipterans belong to 121 areographical categories, divided into two main groups: 1) species with Mediterranean distribution (103 species – 6.0%): more thermophilic and distributed mainly in the southern parts of the Palaearctic and the lower parts of the mountains; 2) species with Palaearctic and Eurosiberian distribution (1620 species – 94.0%): more eurybiontic and widely distributed in the Palaearctic and in the mountains. The Holomediterranean and South-eastern European forms (from 0.5% to 0.7%) are the best represented in the first group. The European, Holarctic and Transpalaearctic taxa (from 6.4% to 18.1%) prevail in the second group. The endemic species are 24 (1.4%). The distribution of the areographical categories in the separate parts of the mountain and the vegetation belts is also scrutinised.

Узимајући у обзир чињеницу да се на овом простору још од давнина задржавало и вековима опстајало староседелачко становништво, са свим својим обичајима и традицијом, а да се током шездесетих и седамдесетих година 20. века то исто становништво масовно стало премештати ка локалним већим центрима, неминовно се наметнула потреба сагледавања његових кретања, евидентирање и научно проучавање тих појава и процеса, како би се трајно сачувала белешка о његовом интегритету. У раду ће бити обрађена демографска структура становништва, етно-културолошки елементи насеља, трагови старих цивилизација и старосна структура преосталих житеља у насељима. За свако насеље биће обрађени: географски положај, основне одлике насељености, легенде о настанку насеља и први помен насеља, културно-историјски споменици, култна места и број преосталих житеља....

Considering the fact that the native population with its unique tradition and customs has been living in this area for centuries and that the same population massively started emigrating towards local industrial centers during the 60&rsquo;s and the 70&rsquo;s , there is a need for observing their migrations, along with noting and scientific exploration, in purpose of preserving the note of their integrity. In the work, the demographical structure of the population will be explored, along with ethno-cultural elements of the settlements, traces of old civilizations and the age structure of the remaining inhabitants. The geographical position, population density, legends about the origin, the first written information, cultural and historical monuments, cult places and the remaining population of each settlement in the region will be explored. The main purpose of the whole exploration is going to be the presentation of the ethno-demographical characteristics of the Stara planina mountain that can be used in the function of tourism.

Abstract:
This diploma thesis describes searching for long forgotten routes between ancient settlements in the mountainous environment of Central Bulgaria. It focuses on Stara Planina Mountains, where the highest peaks over two thousand metres are. Geographical features of this area were analysed using three-dimensional tools in GIS environment. I experimented with various route-designing tools and tested their capabilities against well-known ancient paths. The most accurate tools were then selected to predict routes on maps of ancient settlements from various historical periods. The data used to construct these maps had been collected from two different sources. The first source was a multidisciplinary project called TRAP, initiated by Mgr. Adéla Sobotková, the consultant of my thesis. This project's data was collected during spring and autumn surface survey campaigns in the Kazanluk region of Tundzha River valley. The second source was specialized monographs and journal articles about settlement and path connections in ancient Thracia in the period between 6th century BC and 4th century AD.

Mining plants are one of the factors having major negative impact on the area where they are situated. In the case of Mirkovo floatation plant, located in the outskirts of Stara Planina Mountain in the middle of Bulgaria, the pollution comes from two major sources &amp;ndash; dust from milling shop and waste water from floatation shop. The investigations are carried out deal with determination of the impact on the soils and vegetation in the neighborhood areas using reflectance information from multispectral data and supporting hyperspectral in-situ measurements. During the research preliminary information about mineral content of the ore material coming from the mine and soil type is also considered.

Abstract The German invasion of Scandinavia in April 1940 put an end to the ‘Phoney War’ that had lasted since September 1939. Pushing up through Denmark, the Germans landed 2,000 troops at the Norwegian port of Narvik on 9 April, marking the start of their conquest of that country and of open hostilities with Britain. The British response to this unexpected invasion was, at first, a naval one. Several destroyers, which arrived too late to prevent the German landing, succeeded in eliminating the German naval force in the area. A few days later an Allied force landed at three points along the Norwegian coast, at Narvik, Namsos, and Andalsnes. At Narvik a combined force of Norwegian, British, French, and Polish troops attempted to oust the Germans, and succeeded in doing so by the end of May. The other two landings were intended as a pincer movement for the capture of Trondheim, but these never came close to achieving their objectives. The latter operations were frustrated by poor planning and organization, as well as by a hostile climate and mountainous terrain. Indeed, the whole campaign, including its medical aspects, suffered from a singular combination of poor preparation and bad luck.¹

Abstract:
The Second-Shifters Filed in slowly on a late Thursday afternoon. From the outside, the factory was a long (nearly a third of a mile), nondescript white box, baking silently in the desert sun of the Ramos Arizpe mountain valley. Inside, it was fairly dark and noisy, with long rows of metal-stamping machines, soldering stations, and assembly lines. Neat green pathways edged with yellow lines, stretching as far as the eye could see, marked the safe routes through. Full-sized and colorful cardboard cutouts of a smiling man and woman greeted workers, highlighting appropriate safety gear. The operators, an even mix of men and women, meandered down the green paths like high school students reluctantly heading to class. There were young men with sagging jeans and others with Def Leppard and Metallica T-shirts. One young man sported a fauxhawk. Another had a pony tail and looked slightly hungover. Many of the women wore tight-fitting jeans, some of them bejeweled. A large number appeared to be in their teens. The factory in Ramos Arizpe—a desiccated and spacious industrial valley just southwest of Monterrey, Nuevo León, and just north of Saltillo, Coahuila—was on a refrigerator continental divide. The Whirlpool, Maytag, and KitchenAid refrigerators they assembled here—including the side-by-side, which had been perfected and popularized by Galesburg’s Admiral plant fifty years earlier—flowed north. The hip and colorful Brastemp side-by-sides shipped south to Brazil. The enormous Whirlpool factory was only seven years old in 2013, but it paled in comparison to the massive Dodge Ram truck plant we visited on the other side of Saltillo. Planta Ensamble Saltillo had its own valley, rigorous security, and produced 220,000 trucks a year in nearly infinite combinations of engine sizes, body types, and colors. It sat next to a Chrysler engine factory and a DHL logistics center, which handled some of the highly complicated sequencing for the massive operation. From the back of an electric cart, we saw Dodge trucks start off as metal pieces, pressed out and shaped by hundreds of enormous robotic arms, jerking precisely from position to position, sending up sparks behind tall metal cages.

Abstract:
Although many students of island biogeography consider the midriff islands one of the world’s last major refuges of pristine desert-island biota, humans have been a part of that ecosystem for possibly 10,000 years or more. Humans have long affected the terrestrial and inshore marine biota, but the most serious injuries they have caused apparently began in the mid- to late nineteenth century with the start of guano mining on Patos, Rasa, and San Pedro Mártir islands. Since then, most of the major human impacts affecting the Midriff are related to rapid population growth in northwestern Mexico and increasing demands for the Midriff’s fishery and tourist resources. This chapter offers both historical and ecological perspectives on the human occupancy of the Midriff, so that a cultural-historical foundation will be available for ecological studies in the region as well as for land-use planning and conservation. The Midriff, located between 28° and 29°45´N and 112° and 114°W, includes the coasts of Lower California and Sonora and 39 islands and islets. Tiburόn, with an area of 1223.53 km2 and a maximum elevation of 1219 m, and Ángel de la Guarda, with an area of 936.04 km2 and a maximum elevation of 1315 m, are among the largest and most mountainous islands of Mexico. The other major islands of the Midriff, in order of decreasing size, are San Esteban (40.72 km2), San Lorenzo (33.03 km2), Smith (Coronado) (9.13 km2), San Lorenzo Norte (Las Ánimas) (4.26 km2), San Pedro Mártir (2.9 km2), Mejía (2.26 km2), Partida Norte (1.36 km2), Dátil (Turner) (1.25 km2), Alcatraz (Tassne or Pelícano) (1.2 km2), Salsipuedes (1.16 km2), Estanque (Pond) (1.03 km2), Rasa (0.68 km2), and Patos (0.45 km2) (Murphy, unpublished data). The entire region is extremely arid, and Tiburón is the only island that has permanent potable water, found in a few springs or in tinajas, although several tinajas on Ángel de la Guarda may contain water for long periods. The only island permanently inhabited since initial European contact is Tiburón, the historic stronghold of the Seri Indians or Comcáac, once a seminomadic, nonagricultural, seafaring, hunting, fishing, and gathering people.

Abstract:
Snow cover is an indicator of the fluctuating climate, resulting from the change in the regime of winter precipitations and air temperatures. Our previous studies have revealed significant decreasing of the seasonal snow cover maxima and the precipitation amounts in the highest mountainous regions of Bulgaria, which is however not so strong at lower altitudes. Current research summarizes our last findings about one other characteristic of the snow cover � its duration. This is presented as annual number of days with snow cover with different heights. We have used 62 weather stations with altitudes ranging from 20 up to 2376 m a.s.l. Statistical analysis is performed in order to assess the variability and possible differences in the investigated characteristic from long-term data series for two main climatological periods 1961-90 and 1991-2020. The general tendency for the whole country is a decreasing trend, more pronounced at the northwest and north parts of Bulgaria with some opposite exceptions with much smaller magnitude at some isolated places at northeast and south. Remarkable decreasing of the snow cover days in comparison with the period 1961-1990 has been encountered in the mountainous regions � in the regions of Koprivshtitza (Stara planina) and Cherni vrah (Vitosha Mountain) the decline is almost one month. We have investigated the mean annual number of snow cover days in three different height categories � all days with snow cover, and those above the limits 15 and 30 cm. Some of the results are presented graphically as maps of the current stage together with the deviation from the previous climatic periods. This investigation is part of a project for investigation of the current variability of the snow cover and was funded by the Bulgarian National Science Fund in the call for young and post-doctoral researchers under contract number DM14/1.

Abstract:
Stara planina tourist area covers the central part of the country, along the mountain with the same name. It includes 32 municipalities from 10 districts. Gabrovo district is the only one that falls entirely within Stara planina tourist region. Stara Planina tourist region is one of the most attrac­tive regions for tourism in Bulgaria and one of the few that have almost year-round tourist activities. The outline of the area includes the mountain of the same name, but also the Pre-Balkan. This fact predetermines the exception­al richness and diversity of natural tourist resources. The region specializes mainly in mountain tourism, including recreation, mountain trekking, rural and ecotourism. There is an urgent need to identify and evaluate the pros­pects for sustainable development of tourism in the region. The purpose of the present study is to valorize the natural tourist resources of Gabrovo dis­trict and to provide guidelines for their sustainable use.

Various forms of tourism have developed on the attractions of the subject territory: cultural-historical, mountainous, rural, ecotourism, transit, event and religious tourism. The district includes four municipalities: Bela Palanka, Pirot, Babušnica and Dimitrovgrad. The municipality of Pirot is the most developed municipality in southeastern Serbia. The paper will primarily present and analyze accommodation capacities as well as potentials and limitations that are typical for the city of Pirot. The subject of research are tourist destinations in the vicinity of Pirot, Stara Planina, as the mountain with the most tourist potential for the development of alternative forms of tourism; Zavojsko jezero, traditional villages, monasteries and caves. Special emphasis is placed on the untapped potential of Stara Planina, which could reach the level of similar competitive destinations in the future. Considering the highest degree of protection of the Stara Planina area, it is necessary to enable the development of tourist activities with minimal conflicts and threats to natural and cultural values through adequate technical and tourist infrastructure projects. Tourist and general infrastructure represent the basic elements that affect accessibility, equipment, as well as the possibility of staying and using services in accommodation facilities at a tourist destination. In order to protect and adequately use natural and cultural values, an integral approach is necessary in the development and management of accommodation facilities as a powerful and comprehensive tool and framework for sustainable and continuous development.

Abstract:
The research of traditional vernacular architecture in rural areas is of great importance for the preservation of architectural and cultural heritage, as well as for the preservation of the identity of rural landscapes, ecosystems and natural resources. We are witnessing the unsustainable development of rural areas and the destruction of their identity by modern architectural interventions, that are not suitable for the rural environment, due to ignorance of the values and principles of traditional vernacular architecture and architectural heritage. Focusing on the example of traditional houses of Stara Planina Mountain, this paper investigates the bioclimatic principles and sustainable design strategies of traditional vernacular architecture of Stara Planina Mountain on the example of the village of Senokos, with an emphasis on their valorization and recognition of potential for application in a contemporary architectural context.

Abstract:
Visok is the largest micro region of Stara Planina Mountain, located under its highest peaks, on the average altitude of 800m. It covers the territory of 614,93 km2 and districts of 25 settlements, including 3 settlements which were flooded with the formation of Zavojsko jezero lake. Owing to its geographical location and favorable natural conditions this micro region was inhabited a long time ago. The inhabitants of these mountain settlements have preserved the continuity of their living and cultural development unchanged for centuries. All of its settlements have existed in the form of communities for centuries and grew in specific geographical, socio-economic and historical conditions. The facts indicate that in the settlements of this micro region there are anthropogenic resources that are characterized by their originality and a high degree of preservation and that can be valued for tourism in different ways. The way of life, costumes, customs, traditions and language are very archaic, they have not changed for centuries, so they are attractive to all those who are interested in the past, science, art and the soul of the people. A tour of these settlements represents a time machine back to the distant centuries, which makes research tempting for archaeologists, ethnologists, sociologists, biologists, linguists, geographers, but also many tourist workers and visitors. In this paper, the ethno-demographic characteristics of the settlements of this part of Stara Planina will be presented, which can be put to the function of tourism, because this is the only way to save it from the deterioration of its endangered, centuries-old, cultural and social value - unique in its peculiarities, cultural - historical characteristics and people.

Abstract:
By signing the Declaration on Green Transition, the countries of the Western Balkans committed themselves to completely stop the production of energy from coal by 2050. Nevertheless, the green transition presents great challenges for the Republic of Serbia, especially for its economically weakened and demographically desolate rural and mountain areas. At the moment, energy production in Serbia is still very centralized. However, to achieve a green and fair transition, it needs to be decentralized and democratized. An example of good practice in Serbia, where successful cooperation between citizens, the cooperative, and the local self-government was achieved, is the first cooperative rooftop solar power plant that was built in August 2023. Thanks to the signing of a contract between the City of Pirot and the Elektropionir Energy Cooperative, two 5kW solar power plants were built on the roof surfaces of two buildings (in the Temska and Dojkinci settlement). What sets this project apart from all others, is that the investors of the power plants were citizens - both residents of the Temska and Dojkinci settlements, as well as all other solidary citizens of Serbia and the wider region. Through the crowdfunding campaign, the money needed for the design and construction of the power plant was collected, and during the next 25 years, all finance generated from the production and sale of electricity will be allocated to local associations and NGOs for the implementation of projects and activities, which will improve the local community.
