Rural areas of success - in search of definitions and measures
This paper is an introduction to the discussion on rural areas of success, their definitions, methods of delimitation, conditions of localization and relationship with other socio-economical phenomena. Areas, where all indices describing
civilization development are relatively high and which are characterised by a constant progress in chosen measures in a given time, should be considered as the rural areas of success. This definition assumes that a region where only one of the examined planes
is highly developed while the other features reach values lower than the average cannot be recognized as the areas of success. Dynamic perspective is the other important element of the definition. Very important feature of the area of success
Foraminiferal Biostratigraphic and Paleobathymetric constraints in Geohistory analysis : the example of the Epiligurian succession of the Secchia Valley (Northen Apennines, Mid Eocene-Late Eocene)
A geohistory analysis has been proposed for the Mid Eocene-Late Miocene Epiligurian succession cropping out in Enza, Secchia and Reno valleys (Northern Apennines) in order to quantify the evolution of the studied area in terms of both vertical
The paper deals about successful ways of co-operative planning for regional development and about strategically success potentials which are able to give orientation in such processes. After an introduction about the problem-background and the type
of investigation follows a description of factors of success and obstacles. After the identification of strategically success potentials, impact between these potentials are discussed. Finally recommendations about the design of planning-strategies are given
In the article is represented and evaluated the demographic potential of mountain farms on Dravsko Pohorje. The characteristics of socio-economic structure, depopulation, deagrarization, demographic vitality, productiveness, and succession
continuity of mountain farms are described. The results indicate that demographic vitality is weakened due to permanent emigration of young population, as well as succession continuity on many farms is not assured. - (IKR)
Questions of personal identity have been at the centre of South African politics since the formation of the Union in 1910. It is scarcely surprising that successive censuses have probed the issues of race, religion, language and citizenship

The AA. emphasize here data from the Kapthurin Formation of Kenya and detail a stratigraphic framework for a succession of volcanic tephra and archaeological sites that provides the means to assess temporal change across the Acheulian Middle Stone
the specific profile of case studies. With regard on examples of new urban geography, the successful application of the concept can be demonstrated. - (IfL)

The AA. have measured concentrations of cosmogenic Be 10 and Al 26 produced in situ at bare bedrock surfaces of successive sheets developing on a granite dome in Korea. They have also calculated the exfoliation rate of sheeting joints from a new
This paper examines the processes responsible for the morphodynamics of an intertidal swash bar at Skallingen, Denmark, during 7 successive storms. The contributions of gravity waves, infragravity waves and mean currents to the cross-shore suspended
The aims of this study were : to examine the applicability of the Rare Earth Element (REE) technique for successive storm events for a period of nearly 4 years; to evaluate the relative contribution of each morphological element to sediment yield
debates is that the greater the success of restoration projects, the more threatened natural landscapes become. The A. discusses two opposing potential responses to these claims : that humans are part of nature and thus cannot be an alien dominating force

A successful urban redevelopment needs the attention of small-scale conditions of housing stocks and open spaces and the consideration of demand of the inhabitants. It is the aim of a research project at the IÖR to provide some fundamental knowledge
Velocity fields for the 3 outlet glaciers Nigardsbreen, Bergsetbreen and Baklibreen of Jostedalsbreen, southern Norway, have been obtained from successive orthophotos by digital image processing. The orthophotos were generated with standard digital
