The study discusses the issue of assessment of investment projects planned in environmentally valuable areas. The study area was Biebrza National Park. The source of data was the available literature on the subject, as well as information contained in the Chronicles of Biebrza National Park of year 2015 and 2016. An interview with the park authorities was also conducted. Analyses were developed and conclusions were drawn with regard to investments in the park area. The types of investment projects implemented were specified, as well as the share of these projects in communes located within the park area in relation to the number of inhabitants. It was found that investment projects implemented in the areas protected as a part of the national park were investments in farm buildings, animal houses and – most of all – residential buildings.

Purpose. Assessment of the organisation of tourism movement in the Czech Switzerland National Park taking into account the extent of protection zones, distribution of main tourist attractions and functions of neighbouring tourist settlements. Method. The course of tourist trails and the degree of infrastructure along them were compared with the zoning of the national park. A typology of tourist settlements (both within the borders of the park and in its vicinity) was prepared, taking into account their accessibility, tourist infrastructure and effects on the tourist movement in the protected area. The educational offer of the park, accessibility to the entries of tourist trails by public transport and proposals for handicapped tourists were also analysed. Findings. The Czech Switzerland National Park was introduced in a developed tourist space. That is why the network of tourist trails and locally intensive tourist infrastructure does not fully correspond with the division into protection zones. Out of 166.4 km of hiking and cycling trails, as much as 32.7 km lead through the first, most valuable zone, which composes less than 25% of the total park area. One main and few secondary tourist distribution nodes were distinguished, as well as two types of local tourist villages. The studied area is well accessible, has a developed educational offer, however, the proposals for handicapped tourists are limited. Research and conclusion limitations. In the research, only one national park was examined, thus comparison with situations in other protected areas is advisable. Practical implications. Findings may be useful while planning tourist infrastructure in other protected areas, especially those newly introduced. Originality. In the work, a relatively new national park (established in 2000) was taken into account. It has not been examined more thoroughly in Polish scientific literature concerning tourism. Importance was attached to the zoning of the protected area. Type of paper. The article presents the results of empirical research.

The Subject

The subject of this work is inadequate zoning in protected natural areas in Bosnia and Herzegovina, case study - National park Sutjeska. Protected natural areas are under increasing anthropogenic impact, therefore their adequate zoning is the key to sustainable development and sustainable management. Recently, the performed zoning of the Sutjeska National Park, as well as most of the protected areas in Bosnia and Herzegovina, is inadequate and it is mainly established in order to exploit natural resources. As a confirmation of the above, it indicates that the zone III of protection level, where traditional economic activities are permitted, the construction of housing and tourist infrastructure, occupy a significant part in protected areas. General and specific geographical methods and techniques of research are used in this paper. The main focus is GIS method because throughout which is established significant database and maps of inadequate protection zones in the parks.

Abstract Sea cucumbers have been the subject of increased worldwide interest for scientific knowledge, sustainable use and conservation purposes. One family found in Karimunjawa National Park Area, Jepara was Stichopudidae. The present work was aimed to identify the species of Stichopudidae caught from the waters around Nyamuk Island, Karimunjawa National Park prior to sea ranching for their conservation. The samples were taken during 2018-2019 directly from fisher, processor, traders and wholesaler. By fisher, collections relied on free diving (in depth of 5-10 meters); diving with compressor (in depth of 10-25 meters) and all sea cucumbers were capture by hand. In the processors, the species were samples taken before being processed. They usually were gutted/un-gutted, boiled, smoked or brined. The identification was done through their morphological characters. There were eleven species found belonged to two genera (Stichopus and Thelenota), i.e. Stichopus horrens, S. pseudohorrens, S. naso, S. vastus, S. chloronatus, S. herrmanni, S. monotuberculatus, S. ocellatus, S. quadrifasciatus, Thelenota anax and T. ananas. All Stichopodid sea cucumber called as gamet or gamat by all stake holders of sea cucumber fisheries. With the increasing demand and good price of these species, the conservation effort, especially through sea ranching was urged to be done.

The Subject

Projects for flood protection are increasingly the subject of investment projects in the field of water management. This is related to the increasing frequency of worldwide threats caused by extreme weather conditions, including extremely high rainfall causing floods. Technical and nontechnical flood protection measures are also increasing in importance. In the decision-making process, it is necessary to take into account both the costs and benefits of avoiding losses, including an analysis of social benefits, whose valuation of non-market goods is an essential element. A comprehensive account of projects in the field of flood protection based on the estimated costs and benefits of the investment allows the economic efficiency from a general social point of view to be determined. Previous evaluations of the effectiveness of investment projects have mainly taken into account only categories and market values. The aim of the article is to identify the possibilities to expand the values of non-market assessments and categories formulated on the basis of the theoretical economics of the environment.

Material Evidence

Cultural resources are commonly defined as resources that provide material evidence of past human activities. These resources are unique, as they are both finite and non-renewable. This provides a challenge for traditional visitor use management since these resources have no limits of acceptable change. However, with nearly every national park in the US containing cultural resources, coupled with ever-growing visitation, it is essential that managers of parks and protected areas have the ability to make science-informed decisions about cultural resources in the context of visitor use management. We propose a framework that can help provide context and exploration for these challenges. Drawing on previous literature, this framework includes risk-based approaches to decision making about visitor use; visitor cognitions related to cultural resources; emotions, mood, and affect related to cultural resource experiences; creating and evaluating interpretive programs; deviant visitor behaviors related to cultural resources; and co-management.
