Mt. Begunjščica (Karavanke Mts., northern Slovenia) structurally belongs to the Košuta Unit (eastern SouthernAlps). The Dachstein Limestone, building the northern side of the mountain and its main ...ridge, was depositedon the Julian Carbonate Platform, while grey and red nodular Jurassic limestones of the southern slope representsedimentation on the Julian High. The massive Dachstein Limestone contains a rich assemblage of benthic foraminifera.Typical representatives of the reef and back-reef area were recognized. The age of the assemblage isdated as Rhaetian, based on the co-presence of species with a Norian and Rhaetian time span, such as Galeanellatollmanni, “Sigmoilina” schaeferae, Alpinophragmium perforatum, Aulotortus tumidus, Variostoma catilliforme,Variostoma cochlea and Variostoma helicta, together with the Rhaetian to Lower Jurassic Involutina turgida.
Kadilnikova koča na Golici je bila slovesno odprta 18. junija 1905. Prvi žebelj za napisno tablo na koči je pribil France Kadilnik (1825–1908) s svojim okovanim planinskim čevljem. Kadilnik je za ...gradnjo koče prispeval 7000 kron, kar je bilo takrat pravo premoženje. Koča je bila že takoj po otvoritvi upodobljena na mnogih razglednicah. Razglednica je ni bila odposlana.
The paper studies the quality of beech trees in the Karavanke mountain range. The data obtained for this study came from the permanent sample plots (here in after PSPs) of the studied area. The ...timber assortment structure of mature beech trees in stands was calculated on the basis of the estimated quality of a total of 7,154 beech trees from 2,088 plots and a small sample of harvested trees. The established timber assortment structure and the prices of timber ex forest road were then used to determine the value of beech wood. The study showed that the assortment structure was extremely unfavorable, with the share of trees with sliced and peeled veneer quality lower than 1%, and the share of sawlogs totaling 1.6% of the net volume of analyzed trees. The quality is highest in beech trees measuring 50–55 cm in diameter at breast height. Quality values were higher in rejuvenation stands, and in stands with a comparatively high share of fir or a low share of conifers (spruce). The value drops with altitude and inclination and is higher on slope sites. Undamaged trees from higher social layers are also more valuable. Furthermore, beech timber value is positively affected by high harvesting intensity. In dense stands with a basal area exceeding 60–65 m2/ha, the value begins to decline. In order to improve the quality structure of beech stands, beech would have to be grown in beech-dominated clusters or stands, and thinned at the correct time. Particular attention needs to be paid to minimize the damage to dominant trees during harvesting. Quality assessment carried out within the forest inventory enables to assess the stand quality and value potential of forests at different spatial scale. The research has highlighted several possibilities to use quality data in connection with other parameters to enhance the efficiency of forest management.
Late Paleozoic rocks were studied in detail in the Dovžanova soteska section. The Upper Carboniferous sedimentary succession, correlated with upper part of Auernig and SchulterkofelFm. in the Carnic ...Alps, indicates cyclic clastic-carbonate deposition in a coastal to shallow marine ramp setting with strong influenceofcoarse-grainedfluvial-deltaicsilici-clastics from the hinterland, storm dominated regime of nearshore sediments, and offshore algal buildups. The Lower Permian sequence is developed differently from its time equivalentGrenzland Fm. and is subdivided into Dovžanova soteska Fm., Born Fm., and Rigelj beds. It is marked by the formation of a reef mound on the platform margin. Open-marine inner platform close to the marginal shoals represented the depositional environment of the mixed carbonate-siliciclastic sediments. Thus, a platform evolution from a ramp into a rimmed shelf is suggested.
Stol je najvišja gora Karavank. Skupaj z Begunjščico in Vrtačo tvori osrednjo skupino, ki jo na vzhodu Šentanška dolina loči os skupine Košute in Storžiča. Na severu stoji glavni vrh, imenovan tudi ...Veliki Stol, ki ga od Malega Stola (2198 m) loči sedlo Med Stoli. Razglednica ni bila odposlana.
Peč je kopast vrh na tromeji med Italijo, Slovenijo in Avstrijo. Na vrhu stoji tromejno znamenje. Vrh se ponaša s prelepim razgledom na Ziljsko in Dravsko dolino na severu ter na Julijske Alpe na ...jugu. Razglednica je bila odposlana.
Planina Kofce, na južnem pobočju deset kilometrskega grebena Košute, je prvi dom dobila leta 1927. Stal je nekoliko nižje, kot stoji današnji. V času okupacije je dom prevzelo Nemško planinsko ...društvo, a so ga partizani leta 1944 zažgali. Večina razglednic prikazuje ta starejši dom, ki je imel zraven tudi kapelico.
