Prenj mountain is located in the southern part of Bosnia and Herzegovina, in the area of the high karst of Bosnia and Herzegovina. Administratively, it belongs to the municipalities of Konjic, Mostar and Jablanica. Geological, geomorphological and biological diversity identify this area as a representative example in Bosnia and Herzegovina. Magnificent landscapes, exceptional relief characteristics, specific karst areas, glaciation marks, marked hiking trails, excursion sites, numerous endemic species, etc. present potential tourist attractions for the development of mountain, alpinistic and excursion tourism, as well as the stay of scientific expeditions and field research. Along with the favorable traffic-geographical position and the richness of tourist attractions, Prenj has been recently established as a tourist destination, of mainly adventurous tourism, and in 2012 this mountain was chosen as the best destination for mountain biking according to National Geographic. Bike park Prenj consist of 360 km of mapped and field- marked forest and uncategorized trails intended primarily for cycling but also for other types of recreation and sports. Via Dinarica, an adventure and hiking path that connects tourist attractions in seven countries (through which the mountain range of the Dinaric Alps stretches from Slovenia to Albania), has also contributed to the development of this tourism type. The White Trail (Bijela staza) represents the main path that stretches along the entire length of the Via Dinarica and links the mountains of Prenj and Čvrsnica in the research area. This paper presents geographical analysis of the natural segment of Prenj mountain tourism attraction base and gives a brief overview of tourism development from the aspect of adventure tourism.

Everyday Stress

Sports, recreation and adventure tourism are activities that relax tourists and put them away from everyday stress situations, and it all takes place through swimming, hiking, relaxing in nature, altitude residence, paragliding, rock climbing, rafting, cycling tours, golf, tennis, aqua aerobics, volleyball, skiing, etc. Natural and anthropogenic tourist potentials which exist in the BiH tourism and geographic regions are suitable for the development of these specific forms of tourism. Sports events are unavoidable side effects in the development of these forms of tourism. Entertainment - recreational tourist regional offer, in a broader sense, includes an offer that is used to meet all other needs of tourists, participants and organizers of such events. Moreover, sports, recreation and adventure programs, which are implemented as an integral part of tourism offer of the tourist-geographical regions, are certainly renting and using various sports facilities and equipment, schools of various sports skills, sports games, tournaments and contests followed by sports-entertainment attractions, which certainly lead to job creation and employment of professional staff and young population structure. It is necessary to ensure available public space for a part of these activities, then equipped sports and recreational fields or recreational sports equipment and halls for other activities, which also makes room for employment in BiH regions in which it is wanted to develop these specific forms of tourism. The aim of this study is to determine the possibilities for development of sports, recreation and adventure tourism in BiH tourist-geographical regions followed by their diversity and classification with respect to which natural-geographical tourist attractions will be developed. The priorities and problems of their tourist valorisation will be determined, as well as the way they are promoted among both foreign and domestic tourists. In this study, noticable are the following touristgeographical methods: analysis, synthesis, causal methods, classification, tourist valorization, field research and mapping methods.

The field research was set up on chernozem soil at the Látókép AGTC KIT research area of the University of Debrecen. The study focused on yield, water utilization, nutrient reaction and the amount of yield per kg fertilizer of corn hybrid NX 47279 in 2011 and 2012. Based on the yield results it can be concluded that the largest yield in 2011 was 15 963 kg ha-1 at level N120+PK, while in 2012, the maximum yield amounted to 14 972 kg ha-1 at level N90+PK. Surplus yield per kg fertilizer proved that in 2011 level N30+PK resulted in the highest surplus yield (42.3 kg kg-1) compared to the control treatment. In 2012, yield growth was 18.0 kg kg-1 compared to the control treatment. We measured at level N60+PK 17,5 kg kg-1 compared to at level N30+PK, at the N90+PK 17,7 kg kg-1 compared to at level N60+PK. level N30+PK kg kg-1, 17.5 kg kg-1 at level N60+PK and 17.7 kg kg-1 at level N90+PK compared to the control treatment. Results of the regression analysis showed that the amount of nitrogen fertilizer was 117 kg ha-1 in 2011 and 111 kg ha-1 in 2012 in order to reach maximum yield. Doses of fertilizers above the amounts previously mentioned resulted in yield decrease. Our results indicated that in the drought year of 2012 the hybrid used available water more efficiently than in 2011. The hybrid produced 59 kg ha-1 yield in 2012 and 51.9 kg ha-1 in 2011 at an optimum nutrition level.

This study demonstrates the results of Russian airborne radio-echo sounding (RES) investigations and also seismic reflection soundings carried out in 1971–2020 over a vast area of coastal part of East Antarctica. It is the first comprehensive summary mapping of these data. Field research, equipment, errors of initial RES data, and methods of gridding are discussed. Ice thickness, ice base elevation, and bedrock topography are presented. The ice thickness across the research area varies from a few meters to 3620 m, and is greatest in the local subglacial depressions. The average thickness is about 1220 m. The total volume of the ice is about 710,500 km3. The bedrock heights vary from 2860 m below sea level in the ocean bathyal zone to 2040 m above sea level in the Grove Mountains area (4900 m relief). The main directions of the bedrock orographic forms are concentrated mostly in three intervals: 345∘–30∘, 45∘–70∘, and 70∘–100∘. The bottom melting rate was estimated on the basis of the simple Zotikov model. Total annual melting under the study area is about 0.633 cubic meters. The total annual melting in the study area is approximately 1.5 mm/yr.

The article provides an overview of a field study conducted among Czechs in Serbia, Romania, Bosnia and Herzegovina in 2019. The first results are presented, samples of transcribed texts are given. The purpose of the expedition was to collect narratives for the proper linguistic study of contact elements, conversations were conducted, among other things, about the history of the resettlement of Czechs to the Balkans, about folk culture, and interaction with other Slavic and non-Slavic ethnic groups. In the three regions studied, the Czech language remains unevenly due to a number of linguistic and extralinguistic factors. There are very few Czechs left in Bosnia and Herzegovina; Czech is the mother tongue only for elder people living in rural areas. In Serbia, there are several schools where Czech language and culture are taught, and in Romania there are schools where in the primary grades all subjects are taught in Czech. The collected language data is a valuable source for studying local Czech dialects and contact phenomena (borrowings, code-switching). The metalinguistic comments used by informants when they have difficulties in their Czech language during a conversation with a researcher are of particular interest to sociolinguistics.

Object Of Study

O Cerrado brasileiro é o segundo maior bioma do Brasil, e se espalha por oito Estados diferentes, o que desempenha um papel crucial na questão dos recursos hídricos. A região do estudo da pesquisa é uma área remanescente de 130 mil hectares de Cerrado, que desde 1972 vem passando por constantes problemas fundiários em decorrência da tentativa ineficiente do Governo Brasileiro de implantar uma Unidade de Conservação na área. Enquanto esse processo se desenrola de forma precária e sem perspectivas de finalização, a área vem sofrendo prejuízos ambientais, tendo em vista que não existe proteção e nem diretrizes para a sua conservação. Um dos segmentos econômicos que mais tem prosperado na região é o Ecoturismo, que é uma eficaz ferramenta para a educação ambiental, contribui para a conservação do patrimônio ambiental e cultural das localidades, pois o meio ambiente preservado passa a ser entendido como a fonte de renda para as comunidades locais. O objetivo do trabalho foi criar e adequar nesta área uma rota ecoturística de trekking para envolver os empreendimentos turísticos existentes, ligando-os através de um caminho ecológico composto por trilhas, na área ainda não regularizada do Parque Nacional da Serra da Canastra no município de São João Batista do Glória-MG. Para isso, foram percorridos os caminhos já existentes, mapeando as trilhas já abertas que poderiam ser utilizadas; apresentando os tempos necessários de cada percurso divididos por trechos; as severidades das condições dos terrenos visando implantar a Norma Técnica ABNT NBR 15505-2: Turismo com atividades de caminhada; norma esta sugerida pelo Ministério do Turismo e Associação Brasileira de Empresas de Turismo de Aventura – ABETA. A criação e a classificação da rota de trekking e a disponibilização dos dados de GPS proporciona segurança para quem pretende se aventurar nas trilhas e tende a impulsionar o turismo, inserindo o pólo ecoturístico de São João Batista do Glória no roll de destinos turísticos providos de trilhas adequadas ao trekking. Outro benefício será o aumento da demanda por guias de turismo locais, profissionalizando o turismo na região de estudo. Os resultados serão decisivos para a adequação do produto turístico, gerando qualidade da visitação, maior facilidade na comercialização dos roteiros, culminando em mais desenvolvimento econômico e sustentável para a região. Development and application of a hiking trail an area of Serra da Canastra National Park ABSTRACT The Brazilian Cerrado is the second largest biome in Brazil, and spreads over eight different States, which plays a crucial role in the issue of water resources. The object of study is the remainder area of 200,000 hectares of Cerrado biome in the National Park of Serra da Canastra, a zone that has been under land disputes since 1972 as a result of the Brazilian Government’s inefficiency to implement a conservation unit covering the whole area. While this situation persists with no solution in sight, the area suffers environmental damage aggravated by the absence of protective measures and guidelines for conservation. Ecotourism is one of the most successful business activities carried out in the region and can function as an effective tool for environmental education and conservation of local natural resources and cultural heritage. It enables local communities to benefit financially from preserved natural resources, providing incentives for conservation. The objective is to create and tailor this area an ecotourism hiking trails to engage existing ecotourism businesses by linking them through an ecological path composed of trails in the area have not regularized in the Serra da Canastra National Park in São João Batista do Glória –MG. To this, they were covered existing paths, since mapping the open tracks that could be used; presenting the necessary times for each route divided into sections; the severities of the land conditions in order to implement the Technical Standard NBR 15505-2 Holidays with hiking activities; this standard suggested by the Ministry of Tourism and the Brazilian Association of Adventure Tourism Companies – ABETA. The creation and classification of the hiking trails and the availability of GPS data provides security for those who want to venture out on the trails and tends to boost tourism by entering the ecotourism hub of São João Batista do Glória in the roll of tourist destinations provided tracks suitable for hiking. Another benefit is the increased demand for local tour guides, more professional and aware tourism in the study area. The results will be decisive for the adequacy of the tourism product, generating quality visitors, greater ease in marketing scripts, resulting in more economic development to the region, sustainably.
