[REPORT SUMMARY] Improved guidance on the monitoring of carbon stock changes in afforestation joint implementation projects
In this project we achieved remarkable results in the field of evaluating methodologies for the assessment of carbon stocks of forested areas. The test area was established to model real afforestation/reforestation situations, where greenhouse gas emissions and removals are to...

[REPORT SUMMARY] Climate change effects on land use and ecosystems: Socio-economic scenarios for the CEECs
The methodology and scenarios developed by the research team of ACCELERATES were extended to Central and Eastern Europe, considering their different historical background and non homogeneity of transition process and EU integration. A hierarchical approach with 3 levels (EU Gl...

[REPORT SUMMARY] Determining the growth kinetics of Cylindrospermopsis and developing a new method for the detection of cyanobacterial toxins with Thamnocephalus
Cylindrospermopsis raciborskii (Wolosz.) Seenaya and Subba Raju strain (ACT-9502, Algal Culture Tihany) was isolated from Lake Balaton and maintained in modified BG-11 medium. The sodium nitrate was omitted and the copper content of medium was decreased tenfold because C. raci...

[REPORT SUMMARY] Micro-seismic measuring method to test the condition and the water content of the soil
The aim of these developments was to find such dynamic phenomena or signals, which can be used to forecast the impending landslide with a higher reliability than the static geodetic deformation measurements. The loess walls show no movements detectable by geodetic methods. For...

The deeper geochemical and sedimentological examination of the different deposits (loesses, palaeosols, clay and sand layers) which are built up the high banks can provide new informations to the question of landslide formation and collapsing. It may be hypothesized that the g...

[REPORT SUMMARY] Full roving GPS observation strategy for monitoring local movements
The full roving GPS observation strategy - which was developed for the investigation of antenna mean phase centre offsets using the observations of micro scale networks (1-10 m) - was generalized for the deformation investigation of local scale networks (1-2 km). Because this ...

[REPORT SUMMARY] Development of a local GIS
The GIS technology is an attractive device to support landslide monitoring and makes possible to understand the interaction of the different processes. The results of geodetic deformation measurements are the attributes of different geometric elements. They can be used to inve...

[REPORT SUMMARY] New measuring and data analysis method for geological and hydrological investigation of high loess banks
By means of the method can be checked if the high loess wall has any relation to a deeper geological formation, which may couple the landslide to e.g. tectonic movements. The second possible application of the method is the detection of gravity change due to vertical and horiz...

[PROJECT] ELCAI - European landscape character assessment initiative
ID: EVK2-CT-2002-80021
Start date: 2003-02-01, End date: 2005-05-31
The goal is to develop existing expertise on landscape character assessment at the national and international level as a policy-tool for safeguarding Europe's cultural landscapes. The 4 project phases are as follows:
1. Inventory: technical review of national and international...
