| Annotation: | The European Topic Centre on Biological Diversity (ETC/BD) is established to support the work of EEA in the field of biodiversity for the period 2014-18 and the implementation of the EU Action Plan on Biodiversity and related global strategies. Key priority areas included in the work plans established between the EEA and the European Commission include:• Support implementation of existing EU legislation relating to nature (Habitats and Birds Directives), including links to other key EU legislation concerning the sea and water, rationalization of the data collection, reporting and sharing of experience and knowledge;• Support for assessment and reporting in connection with the global- and the EU biodiversity strategies, while promoting the implementation of data and information aspects, in particular the mapping and assessment of the health of ecosystems and their services in Europe;• Work on specific tasks relating to the EU\'s biodiversity strategy in sectors that are not covered by other ETCs. These include agriculture and forestry. The cooperation with the JRC, DG AGRI, and other pan-European and global partners in these issues is needed. |

| Annotation: | The EBONE project is designed to develop a fully integrated system based on key biodiversity indicators, implemented within an institutional framework operating at the European level. EBONE will make the links between databases, which have currently remained isolated in order to increase their overall effectiveness. A link will be made between the methods, data and observation sites available in different countries and regions. A link will also be made with various ongoing projects and available databases, as well as observation and monitoring systems. This will lead to a cost effective procedure for biodiversity monitoring by applying the most efficient indicators into a balanced sampling programme. One of the important steps is to carry out tests on the data from LTER sites in relation to analysis of nation-wide habitat monitoring programmes. EBONE is a partnership of sixteen universities and research institutes in Europe, Israel and South Africa. |

| Project leader: | RNDr. Moyzeová Milena, PhD. |
| Annotation: | The concept of green infrastructure, the same as the territorial systems of ecological stability, is aimed at the progressive transition from the black-and-white division of the country to the protected and unprotected parts, to an all-area differentiated system preserving ecologically convenient landscape structure with different ways of use. Hence, the aim of the proposed Green Infrastructure and mitigation of the negative effects of its barriers is conservation and support to biodiversity and diversity of Slovakia’s landscape and provision for their beneficial effects on the surrounding ecologically less stable parts of the country, support to variants of multifunctional land use with the aim to protect individual components of the environment, conservation of important landscape |

The proposal for the optimal solutions of balanced sanitation (remediation) of investigated mining territory will be based on knowledge of technogenous sediments of the dump- fields, soil, water and plants of contamined territory and this will be presented as a result of the research. The recommended remediation will be realized with respect to the typical features of mining country so that it will consider the environment of the mining-historical and economic aspects.Key words:Heavy metals, mining industry, contamination, remediation |

| Zmeny krajiny Biosférickej rezervácie Tatry za posledných 200 rokov v kontexte vývoja spoločensko-ekonomických a prírodných podmienok | |
| Landscape changes of the Biosphere Reserve Tatra in recent 200 years in relation to changing natural and socio-economical conditions | |
| Program: | SRDA |
| Project leader: | Ing. Oszlányi Július, CSc. |
| Annotation: | The project deals with problems on changes in landscape utilisation in the area of the Biosphere reserve Tatra within the last 200 years. On the purpose of change evaluations a set of historical maps and aerial photographs from 1769, 1822, 1900, 956, 1988, 2002 and 2006 will be used. Digital thematic maps of land cover/use changes and spatial-statistical information on types of changes will be derived. Main social-economical and environmental drives of these changes will be defined. Special respect will be put on the occurence of windstorm disasters and their effect on land utilisation within the study area. Changes in large-scale were evaluated in two model areas (Belianske Tatry Mts., Spálenisko pod Slavkovským štítom) in time horizon 1949-2003 by use of methodological tool of large-scale multi-temporal analyses based on obtaining information about landscape object changes by application of aerial orthophotographs. Dynamic of changes in landscape pattern will be analysed using landscape-ecological indices. Prognoses and models potential development based on different scenarios will be developed by means of geostatistical methods. A separate part of the research is an analysis of influence of natural phenomena on landscape structure changes in high-mountain conditions of Tatra Mts. Among them are those of short but strong morpho-dynamic disturbances, e.g.: snow avalanches and debris flows. In this project, we also interpret results of an observation considering the relationship between vegetation of land mantlerocks and intensity of morphodynamic processes from permanent plot in the territory of Belianske Tatry Mts. In 2009 the results have been published in scientific journals, education books and 2 monographs. |

| Annotation: | Institute of landscape ecology SAS has participated on 3 modules, M 3.2., M 6.1. and M 6.2. Within the module M 3.2., ILE SAS participated on definition of criteria for selection of key sustainability indicators, their importance and relevance for assessing the sustainability on regional level and definition of links between key indicators and land-use functions. These indicators were then assessed using sustainability thresholds/limits approach. This approach was based on definition of qualitative/quantitative threshold values for selected environmental indicators. Within the module 6.1., activities included elaboration of sustainability assessment plan for SIAT (Sustainability Impact Assessment Tool) testing region of High Tatras. The results were summed up into a data form containing definition of main sustainability problems, stakeholders and data resources. The M 6.2. activities included collection, standardisation and harmonisation of various social, economical and environmental statistical data for the High Tatras testing region. Data were collected according to M6 Data management framework and uploaded to common georeferenced database system. |

| Project leader: | Ing. Oszlányi Július, CSc. |
| Annotation: | The unique occassion, which occured in the study area after the changes in hydropedological conditions after the Gabčíkovo power plant has been put into operation enabled the establishment of long term ecological research at 6 chosen research sites. These sites are included into the world-wide network of ILTER sites. The priority activity is the measurement and evaluation of production-ecological paramerters in the possibly long-time series, evaluation of changes and trends and thus provide scientific arguments and scientific informations on influence of Man-caused changes on forest ecosystems. After the periond 1987-1996, when numerous measurements at the sites have been performed with the aim to evaluate the state-of-art before and after the hydropower plant has been put into operation. In 2003 – 2005, thanks to VEGA grant project 2/3078/24 the measurements have been renewed and another time series of data could be added to the data from previous years. To obtain the uninterrupted time series, the research and measurements must continue to enable to evaluate the changes in production-ecological situtation in the studied forest ecosystems and to establish and comment the tendencies and trends of their development after 15 years. In the world- network of long-term study plots the results from the Danube innundation sites will be of unique value and they will give scientifically based answer to the questions following from the construction of the waterworks in longer period. |
