Rezervácia Abrod bola vyhlásená v roku 1964 a svojou hodnotou z hľadiska biodiverzity patrí k najvýznamnejším rezerváciám Borskej nížiny, ako aj celého Slovenska. Na jej území sa organizácia DAPHNE v spolupráci so správou Chránenej krajinnej oblasti Záhorie od roku 1994 venuje aktivitám na pochopenie ekologických zákonitostí a zachovanie rezervácie.
-Publisher's description
The current book presents and summarizes works and projects finalized during the second course of Klagenfurt University's postgraduate M.Sc programme on "Management in Protected Areas" (2007 to 2009). While the first volume in this proceedings series presented the focus on approaches for improving protected areas, the current volume develops the understanding of PA management further to emphasize the dynamic aspects of management in terms of innovative and new approaches and scientific results.
For the first time a comprehensive overview of geo-conservation in Europe has been presented in a book. Geoheritage in Europe and its Conservation includes specific contributions from 37 countries focussing on legislation and geoconservation practices. The only record of the history of our planet lies in the rocks beneath our feet: rocks and the landscape are the memory of the Earth.
