Loading...This article presents a biogeographic analysis of vegetation on point bars. The results are based primarily on an analysis of off-road mapping, which was conducted in nine selected point bars of the upper stream of the Sava River. Human interference and functional significance of point bars have been researched, too. As a result of our research a graphic model of succession on the point bars has been created.

This paper highlights potential advantages of nuclear techniques to assess soil redistribution magnitude and presents assessment of the initial 137Cs fallout in undisturbed site, located in Šalamenci, Eastern Slovenia. The 137Cs background activity in the selected forested site was evaluated at 7316 ± 2525 Bq m–2 with a coefficient of variation of 34 % (n = 20). This information will be used in future investigations to assess erosion and sedimentation processes of adjacent agricultural fields with 137Cs method.

After the theoretical conceptualization of transport as a factor for shaping space and verifying of its importance for the shaping of spatial development of Slovenia, in theory we did the same for region and from a practical point of view for the Central Slovenian region.

Author tries, following Braudel’s note that »lanscape is not referential framework of research but the referential framwork of research is only problem«, to analyse importance of Slovenia–Croatia state boundary. He does it through the political-geographic prism of betweenness of the Balkan’s Europe that is of edge and contact position of territories of both countries, for what the state boundary looses both its importance and function.

In the case of Triglav National Park, we researched the compatibility of protection and tourism function of protected areas in the area of Upper Sava Valley. The survey was focused on the reasons of visit, the proposals and wishes of visitors in the connection with the future Triglav National Park development, according to the primary protection role of the only national park in Slovenia.

The main goal is to describe the main process in spatial urban and suburban development in Slovenia and at the same time to highlight the discordance between the goals and objectives of spatial policies and actual urban development. In this context reasons for poor and inadequate implementation of European and national strategic policies of urban development at local (municipal) level are presented.

This contribution aims at drawing attention to the European development guidelines and educational and research activities in relation to future development of geography discipline and the position of geography as a science in the Republic of Slovenia.
