Prostorske predloge mednarodne urbanistične delavnice Mobilne kulture: razvojne možnosti turizma v občini Piran lahko razvrstimo na treh ravneh: konceptualni, strateški in projektni. Opredelitve ...problemov območij in njihove rešitve v delavnici se v velikem obsegu prekrivajo s slednjimi v projektu Portorož 2005/2025: projekt vizije in strateškega razvoja vodilnega slovenskega turističnega središča, ki ga je izdelal Mednarodni inštitut za turizem v letu 2000. Skupna splošna ugotovitev je lahko, da strateške javne naložbe kljub prizadevanjem mest in države še naprej zaostajajo v razvoju in izvedbi. Projekti in njihov uspeh pri ciljnem načrtnem razvoju turizma v občini Piran so predvsem odvisni od dobro utemeljenih in pravočasno izvedenih strateških javnih naložb.
The third volume of The Notary Book from Piran is a scientific issue of the source – the book of the notary Sclavion with imbreviations of 589 documents of various contents, which is kept at the ...Piran Archives. It contains the transcription of the original Latin text, notes, an index of personal and place names, a factual register, and a list of summaries of entries.
The presence of horizontally bedded, fining upward sequences of sands, silts, and clays throughout the Peshawar basin of northern Pakistan has previously been ascribed to Pleistocene lakes within the ...basin. Close inspection of these sediments, however, show sedimentological properties that suggest these stacked sequences are more characteristic of deposits of periodic break-out flood deposits and not lacustrine deposits. Exposures near the villages of Piran, Nowshera, Jehingira, Jalala and along the Kabul River show evidence of subaerial exposure (mudcracks and bioturbation zones), lateral continuity and fracture sets. At least three distinct cycles of deposition are apparent in the basin, each exhibiting slightly different structural and sedimentological properties. The groupings and dimensions of the rhythmite sequences indicate that within each cycle multiple episodes of flooding occurred. The absence of significant erosional and depositional features, as well as the preservation of mud rip-up clasts and bioturbation zones further suggests that the periods between episodes of flooding were probably on the order of 10
1 to 10
2 years. Evidence of ice-dams and lakes in the Indus drainage system is abundant. Cross-valley moraines and lacustrine deposits that stretch many kilometers upstream are visible in the middle Indus valley between the villages of Sazin and Shatial and Skardu. Calculated ratios of sediment to water suggest that an upstream reservoir at least 32 km
3 and perhaps as large as 128 km
3 would have been required to produce the extent of rhythmites observed in the Peshawar basin. Generating a reservoir of this size in the Indus drainage system was accomplished near the villages of Sazin–Shatial where large cross-valley moraines and upstream lacustrine sediments indicate large ice-dams as do the moraines and lacustrine sediments near Gilgit and Skardu. The origin of the graded sediments in the Peshawar basin, however, has not been correlated to the failure of a specific ice-dam. The temporal relationship of the graded sediments is unclear. Limited thermoluminescence (TL) analysis of the youngest set of graded sediments (referred to as `lake beds' by previous investigators) in the Peshawar basin suggest an age of at least 130,000 years BP. This time correlates to the Yunz stage of glaciation along the middle Indus valley which spans from the mid to late Pleistocene to about 130,000 years BP.
