This study aimed to identify vulnerable species and establish effective protection measures in seven natural islands of the Danube Delta, located near Isaccea port, Chilia and Sf. Gheorghe Branches during 2023-2024. For the vegetation analysis, phytocoenological relevés were carried out. Transects were carried out to identify vertebrates (birds, ma...
Rural areas and infrastructure in the Danube Delta are affected by natural disasters, and the frequency and severity of hydrological phenomena are increasing due to climate change. The rural areas of the Danube Delta experience significant flooding due to the high levels of the Danube, often resulting from quantitatively significant precipitation....
In deltaic environments like the Danube Delta, sedimentary particles can range from clay and silt to sand and gravel. The proximity to the Black Sea introduces marine processes into the deltaic system that can be translated as a mixture of fine-grained sediments derived from the fluvial delta along with marine sediments from the Black Sea. This reg...
Aldrovanda vesiculosa is a critically endangered plant in Romania, threatened by the eutrophication of water and the decrease of its level. In this context, the study aimed to identify the environmental factors that influence the characteristics of A. vesiculosa populations.
The study was carried out in August 2024, in Perișor (Tulcea County). For...
CITATION Balaican D., Nichersu I., Bratfanof E., Livanov O., Simionov M., Negrei C. (2024) Master Plan for nature-based regional ecometry in the Lower Danube Floodplains and Danube Delta. In: Teubner K., Trichkova T., Cvijanović D., eds. Tackling present and future environmental challenges of a European riverscape. Abstract This article explores a...
Since ancient times, mankind has tried to establish a causality of the phenomena that occur in the surrounding world, to find solutions and answers. Floods are widespread in the Danube Delta they cause great material damage and loss of human life and important consequences. The production of floods in the Danube Delta is due to the entry into the D...
From a geological point of view, Dobrogea presents a wide variety of rocks specific to all three major petrological categories. Plutonic magmatic rocks are found especially in the Macin Mountains, in the form of granites or granodiorites, rarely diorites. Basaltic volcanic igneous rocks are mainly found in the Niculi?el Hills. Metamorphic rocks out...
Intact wetlands can act as carbon sinks and mitigate increased
amounts of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere following
climate change. In addition to organic soils, the riparian vegetation plays an important role in carbon storage and cycling
within wetlands. In the context of the project ‘EDAPHIC-BLOOM Danube’, the riparian vegetation in the Danub...
Following Parliament's call in January 2020 to set binding targets for saving biodiversity, in May 2020 the European Commission presented the new 2030 Biodiversity Strategy. At its June 2021 plenary session, Parliament adopted a position on the EU's 2030 Biodiversity Strategy: Bringing Nature back into our lives to ensure that the world's ecosystem...
3D-Danube Delta Decarbonising is an essential concept that promotes the maintenance of swamps and wetlands of the Danube and the adaptation of their socioeconomic system to climate change. The relationship between climate change, atmospheric structure and greenhouse gases (GHGs) and other critical factors for the global environment, such as alterat...
In the present study we intend to capitalize on the results of a geological study, which identified the sources of supply with building stone that enter the structure of Roman walls, or those belonging to the fortification elements belonging to the Middle Byzantine and medieval period of the Noviodunum fortress.
In the present study we intend to capitalise on the results of a geological study, which identified the sources of supply with building stone forming the structure of Roman walls, or those belonging to the fortification elements dated to the Middle Byzantine and medieval period of the Noviodunum fortress.
The fortress of Noviodunum, located near the town of Isaccea, Tulcea County, Romania is believed to be built since the Roman conquest of the modern-day Dobrogea, around 1st to 2nd Century AD. The area has been known since ancient times, because here, the Danube
narrows, being the most suitable place to cross its waters. The great historian Herodotu...
The paper presents the Early Iron Age discoveries resulted in the archaeological excavations carried out in the year 2000 at the Niculiţel–Cornet site. During this campaign, 126 archaeological complexes were researched (most of them being deposit pits) and a considerably large quantity of pottery, clay objects, a bronze bracelet, animal and stone h...
