The Institute of Geodesy and Mine Surveying of the Technical University of Ostrava performs long-term monitoring works and evaluates the effects of undermining in the Ostrava-Karviná coal-field, a major industrial conurbation in the north-east of the Czech Republic. Local extraction of bituminous coal has had significant effects on the surface relief. Actual undermining effects are monitored on selected built objects on a regular basis. Some of them are public buildings, roads, listed historic monuments, and buildings of cultural or historic value. Damage to the buildings, etc. can be eliminated to some extent by prudent planning of extraction works in space and time and by applying appropriate protective measures. Santrauka Čekijos Ostravos technikos universiteto Geodezijos ir kadastro institutas atlieka ilgalaikius stebėsenos darbus ir kalnakasybos įtakos vertinimą Ostravos-Karvinos anglių baseine (Čekijos šiaurės rytų pramonės branduolys). Lokali bituminių anglių gavyba lemia didelę įtaką žemės paviršiaus reljefui. Kalnakasybos įtaka reguliariai stebima stebėjimo objektais pasirinkus tam tikrus statinius. Tai viešieji pastatai, keliai, istoriniai paminklai ir reikšmingi istoriniai ar kultūriniai statiniai. Statinių pažeidimų galima išvengti apdairiai planuojant (erdvės ir laiko požiūriu) kalnakasybos darbus bei taikant tinkamas apsaugos priemones. Резюме Институт геодезии и маркшейдерии Остравского технического университета выполняет долгосроч ные работы по мониторингу и оценке последствий горнодобывающей промышленности в Остравско-Карвинском угольном бассейне, являющимся основным промышленным предприятием в северо-восточной части Чехии. Локальная добыча битумных углей в большой степени влияет на рельеф поверхности земли. Влияние горнодобычи регулярно исследуется на некоторых строениях – общественных зданиях, дорогах, исторических памятниках, важных исторических и культурных сооружениях. Повреждения зданий и сооружений можно предотвратить, если планировать горнодобывающие работы с учетом места, времени, а также предпринимая необходимые меры защиты.

Over 10 years ago, Oryx published initial details of an investigation into the effects of selective timber logging on primates in the Sungai Tekam Forestry Concession in peninsular Malaysia (Johns, 1983). This original 2-year field study developed into a long-term monitoring programme, in which the recovery of primates in the regenerating forest is to be recorded throughout the logging cycle. This is the only such monitoring programme so far established in the world's tropical forests. The dataset is now complete for forests logged up to 18 years ago.

AbstractWe present the results from an ongoing long-term monitoring of the 22 GHz H2O maser in W49N with the 100-m Effelsberg radio telescope from February 2014 to September 2017. The unique Effelsbergs spectral line observation capability provides a broad velocity range coverage from −500 to +500 km s−1 with a spectral resolution better than 0.1 km/s. Following the strong major outburst in W49N in late 2013, we have started a long-term monitoring programme at Effelsberg. The major outburst feature (up to 80,000 Jy at VLSR − 98 km s−1) faded away by June 2014. However, we found that the site is still active with several high velocity outbursts (both blue and redshifted). Some features appear at extremely high velocities (up to ±280 km s−1) and show rapid flux variations within a 1-2 month period. This sub-year scale variability implies that the water masers could be excited by episodic shock propagation caused by a high-velocity protostellar jet.

Natural environment has undergone rapid transformations, primarily attributed to human actions that threaten ecosystems' balance. Understanding the relationship between humans and nature is essential to generate effective strategies for sustainably using resources. In this study, we analyzed the environmental perception and knowledge about the biology of sea turtles through 120 informal interviews with visitors at beaches on the north-central coast of Rio de Janeiro state. Residents noticed garbage more often than tourists, as did women and younger individuals. The perception of initiatives necessary to increase the preservation of the beaches was higher for people with higher education. In general, there were no differences in biological knowledge about sea turtles between residents, tourists and people who work or study at the cities. The results point to the need for oceanic education strategies that can help raise environmental awareness through long-term conservation programs.

Mankyua chejuense, a fern endemic to Cheju Island, Republic of Korea, which lies 120 km south of the Korean Peninsula, appears to be restricted to five extant subpopulations in the north-east of the Island, with a total population of c. 1,300 individuals. Major threats to the existence of the species include shifting cultivation, plantation, overuse of basaltic rocks that are part of the species' microhabitat, farming and pasturage, and the construction of roads and golf courses in lowland areas. The information currently available for the species indicates that it should be categorized as Critically Endangered on the IUCN Red List. For conservation of the species it needs to be included on the national threatened species list, and its habitat designated as an ecological reserve. Intensive surveys are required in order to establish whether there are any other extant subpopulations of the species, and the presently known subpopulations require long-term monitoring and continuous protection.
