SUMMARY:NBRC 2023 - Baltic Sea(l)
DESCRIPTION:Inspired by EGEA’s theme year 2023 “Water for Life”\, we wanted to dedicate the congress to the Baltic Sea as it connects our lovely North and Baltic region into one. Majority of the North and Baltic entities are also located directly at the coast of the Baltic sea\, which enables us to better understand and study the consequences of climate change (e.g. sea level rise)\, state of biodiversity\, transnational mobility of individuals as well as sustainable energy and geopolitical developments. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nNBRC23 Instagram\n\n\n\nlocation\n\n\n\nThe accommodation is located right next to the sea in Northern Estonia in one of our summer destinations Võsu.  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\nWorkshops\n\n\n\nRemote Sensing Workshop – SARSea you later – time-space changes using SAR image analyzis. We will explore how Synthetic Aperture Radar “sees” the Baltic Sea and its coast – water\, ice and land. We will compute SAR images using radar amplitude and phase information.Workshop leader: Tauri Tampuu\, PhD \n\n\n\nSatellite remote sensing of cyanobacterial blooms in the Baltic SeaHalf the oxygen we breathe every day is made by algae and their importance is enormous. Nevertheless\, when disruption occurs e.g.\, nutrient run-off (agricultural fertilizer and sewage)\, phytoplankton and algae grow rapidly causing intense blooms. Excessive growth can cause oxygen depletion and cause dead zones in the water. Some phytoplankton blooms (mainly cyanobacteria) produce hazardous toxins and are called Harmful Algal Blooms. Cyanobacterial blooms all over the world as well as in the Baltic Sea have increased over the years causing negative ecological and economic impacts. Monitoring algae and their blooms are therefore crucial. When there is a high concentration of pigmented phytoplankton cells\, the colour of the water changes\, and that change can be monitored by satellite sensors. For example\, the Copernicus Sentinel-2 and Sentinel-3 satellites can be used to estimate water quality and detect algal blooms. In the workshop\, Sentinel-3 OLCI data will be used to analyze the cyanobacterial blooms in the Baltic Sea\, and the Sentinel Application Platform (SNAP) will be needed to process the data (https://step.esa.int/main/download/snap-download/). ESA/ESRIN provides the SNAP user tool for free.Workshop leaders: Kaire Toming\, PhD (Estonian Marine Institute\, University of Tartu) Martin Ligi\, PhD (Estonian Marine Institute\, University of Tartu) \n\n\n\nBiodiverse rivers contribute to a healthy Baltic SeaRivers and the Baltic Sea are strongly tied together\, since aquatic animals are moving between these environments and sediments are transported with the riverflow from terrestrial landscape to the sea. Unfortunately also excess nutrients from the land are carried downstream. Almost 70% of total nitrogen coming to the Baltic Sea is from riverine origin\, from which large proportion is from anthropogenic sources (HELCOM 2018).Healthy rivers full of life are able to self-purificate themselves better and transport less nutrients to the sea. In the workshop we will catch aquatic invertebrates from the river Võsu and explore the food web pathways improving the water quality. We will also visit some anthropogenic pressures impacting the river.Join the workshop to see and experience the riverine landscape closely!Workshop leader: Jürgen Karvak (University of Tartu) \n\n\n\nTools for planning coastal landscapesIn Europe\, the 22 coastal Member States were obliged under the Maritime Spatial Planning (MSP) Directive to develop a national maritime spatial plan at the latest by 31 March 2021\, which was delayed by COVID-19 pandemic. Each country had different input\, methods and outcome\, for example in Finland sea can be privately owned\, in Estonia sea belongs to the state and in Latvia the local governments have the right to plan coastal waters. The lecture and the workshop will be based on two previous projects in Lahemaa National Park: SustainBaltic and Land-Sea-Act that looked at terraqueous landscapes in a more detailed manner. In the lecture a small introduction is made to the sphere of MSP and the two projects. In the workshops the tools used will be introduced and applied\, e.g. mapping the coexistence conflicts with a matrix\, scenario-building and brainstorming for the solutions.Workshop leader: Anu Printsmann\, PhD (Tallinn University) \n\n\n\nLearning the difference in planning offshore and onshore wind farmingWe are looking further into the planning process of offshore and onshore wind farms\, comparing their differences along with recent developments in the context of energy crisis.Workshop leader: Kaarel Hendrik Zernant \n\n\n\nTimetable\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nORGATEAM\n\n\nAgnes – main organizerMarie Johanna – main organizerElina Maarja – finance coordinatorMariia – science coordinatorKarl Joann – science coordinatorHanna-Ingrid – science coordinatorHelen Katrina – excursionsHeli – little helper who helps where she can – desagn\, fundraising\, greenKai Ly – little helper who helps where she can – fundraising\, greenMicol – helping handArina – helping handSneezly\n\n\n\n\nSponsors

SUMMARY:EUROMED REGIONAL CONGRESS 2023
DESCRIPTION:EuroMed Regional Congress 2023 – Managing Tourism and Heritage \n\n\n\nIf you want to know more about the EuroMed Regional Congress in 2023\, keep scrolling!For more information\, follow us on Instagram and Facebook profiles! \n\n\n\nhttps://www.instagram.com/emrc2023/?igshid=YmMyMTA2M2Y%3D\n\nFacebook\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n  \n\n\n\n\ndays till congress \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nsea & stones\n\n\n\n\n\nEMRC23 logo\n\n\n\n\nMurter island\n\n\n\n\n\nTOPIC INTRODUCTION\n\n\n\nCroatia’s Adriatic coastline has a long tradition of tourism. Its warm sea\, thousands of islands\, and abundance of sunshine\, along with preserved nature and cultural heritage attract many tourists from all over the world during the summer days. However\, focusing only on mass maritime\, sun and sea tourism\, based solely in coastal regions brings with it logistical\, economic\, ecological and sociocultural pressures\, management difficulties and problems.  \n\n\n\nSo\, how do we expand beyond\, offer something different\, offer something more? How do we present natural and cultural heritage to tourists while still making sure that it’s preserved and kept for future generations? How can we successfully manage mass tourism and its problems? We couldnt have found a better place for hosting this years EMRC23 with such a theme than the dalmation coast\, specifically the Murter island! \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLocation and acomodation\n\n\n\nThe Dalmatian coast is where most of the tourist activities take place. Murter is a small island located in Šibenik-Knin county\, about 34 km up the coast from Šibenik. The island isconnected to the mainland by a small drawbridge\, passing through the town of Tisno.The island covers an area of 18.7 sq. km. and its population is just over 3\,600. Hotel Reflektor is located on the bay of Slanica\, in the southern part of the Murter island. \n\n\n\n\n\nWorkshops\n\n\n\n\n\n\nNatural heritage includes all geographically\, biologically and ecologically valuable natural sights and values\, while the most principal are protected as nature parks\, nature reserves etc.  \n\n\n\nTheir potential is seen in the possibility of developing tourism in rural areas and ecotourism\, alongside highlighting the importance of protecting local ecosystems and making sure they don’t succumb to the growing phenomenon of mass tourism. \n\n\n\nThis workshop will try to showcase their increasing importance in tourism and explain different ways to enable protection of said natural heritage. \n\n\n\n\n\nMass tourism is becoming the dominant form of tourism in the world\, with many countries having both good and bad examples of dealing with said issues. Our homeland is no different\, with Croatia most often being represented by maritime sun and sea tourism\, with visitor numbers growing each year.  \n\n\n\nDespite the high number of tourist arrivals\, overnight stays and the income generated from mass tourism\, it is highly unsustainable and brings various ecological\, cultural and economical problems.  \n\n\n\nThe goal of this workshop is to answer the question: “How to successfully manage mass tourism and minimize or eliminate the problems it creates in various places?’’ \n\n\n\n\n\nCultural tourism is extremely important through the preservation of heritage and identity and enabling heritage conservancy through sustainable tourism valorization. Possibilities of reducing seasonality\, spatial dispersion of various tourism offerings\, strengthening of national and local identity\, education\, protection\, restoration and sustainable management of cultural heritage are the topics covered by this workshop\, alongside trying to answer the question ‘’How to successfully recognize cultural heritage and work on its direct conservation?’’. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nScientific Excursions\n\n\n\n\nThe largest natural lake in Croatia and a wetland ecosystem that is one of the most threatened habitats of the world. A natural cryptodepression separated from the Adriatic Sea by a narrow strip of land yet connected to the sea by a man-made canal\, makes a truly diverse habitat\, home to hundreds of species both in flora and fauna. \n\n\n\nAn educational trail set in karst and makia will take us to the highest point of the nature park – Viewpoint Kamenjak\, where we will enjoy a breathtaking view of the entire Vransko Lake\,  Murter island\, Kornati Archipelago and more. \n\n\n\n\n\nThe seven tufa cascades of the Krka River might be one of the most famous tourist sites in Croatia which makes it perfect for exploring the impact of mass tourism on nature\, especially the delicate tufa formations.  \n\n\n\nFrom the small town of Skradin\, located where the Krka estuary forms Lake Prokljan\, where nautical tourism also thrives due to its connection to the sea\, we will cycle to Skradinski buk\, the last and the biggest cascade on the river flowing over seventeen barriers\, making it the most beautiful as well as the most exploited site in the park. \n\n\n\n\n\nThe seven tufa cascades of the Krka River might be one of the most famous tourist sites in Croatia which makes it perfect for exploring the impact of mass tourism on nature\, especially the delicate tufa formations.  \n\n\n\nFrom the small town of Skradin\, located where the Krka estuary forms Lake Prokljan\, where nautical tourism also thrives due to its connection to the sea\, we will cycle to Skradinski buk\, the last and the biggest cascade on the river flowing over seventeen barriers\, making it the most beautiful as well as the most exploited site in the park. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOrga Team\n\n\nEMRC23 Orga TeamStella Štefanac – Main coordinator + Graphic design & PRLeon Puljević – Vice coordinator + Participant  coordinatorDenni Kunjas – Scientific coordinatorKorana Komar – Financial & Fundraising CoordinatorKlara Grošanić – Financial & Fundraising CoordinatorAleksandar Vojvodić – Excursions coordinatorLorena Zvonarić – Trainings & green coordinator\, Excursions coordinatorNiko Živanović – Day program coordinatorBarbara Kurtov  – Day program coordinatorBernarda Krolo – Night program coordinatorAntonio Novak – Night program coordinator
