Abstract: Evropska komisija za območja Natura 2000 priporoča izdelavo upravljavskih načrtov, ki vključujejo lokacijsko specifične cilje in na njih temelječe ukrepe ohranjanja narave. Da bi se izognili morebitnim poznejšim konfliktom, je treba v proces pravočasno in smiselno vključiti vse zainteresirane deležnike. V okviru projekta GoForMura sta bila kot vzorčni primer oblikovana upravljavska načrta za gozdni območji Natura 2000 na študijskih območjih Gornja Bistrica in Murska šuma v Prekmurju. Posebno težo v procesu nastajanja prvih tovrstnih dokumentov je imelo sodelovanje zainteresiranih deležnikov, še posebej lastnikov oz. upravljavcev gozdov.

Abstract: Early diagnosis with rapid detection of the virus plays a key role in preventing the spread of infection and in treating patients effectively. In order to address the need for a straightforward detection of SARS-CoV-2 infection and assessment of viral spread, we developed rapid, sensitive, extraction-free one-step reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) and reverse transcription loop-mediated isothermal amplification (RT-LAMP) tests for detecting SARS-CoV-2 in saliva. We analyzed over 700 matched pairs of saliva and nasopharyngeal swab (NSB) specimens from asymptomatic and symptomatic individuals. Saliva, as either an oral cavity swab or passive drool, was collected in an RNA stabilization buffer. The stabilized saliva specimens were heat-treated and directly analyzed without RNA extraction. The diagnostic sensitivity of saliva-based RT-qPCR was at least 95% in individuals with subclinical infection and outperformed RT-LAMP, which had at least 70% sensitivity when compared to NSBs analyzed with a clinical RT-qPCR test. The diagnostic sensitivity for passive drool saliva was higher than that of oral cavity swab specimens (95% and 87%, respectively). A rapid, sensitive one-step extraction-free RT-qPCR test for detecting SARS-CoV-2 in passive drool saliva is operationally simple and can be easily implemented using existing testing sites, thus allowing high-throughput, rapid, and repeated testing of large populations. Furthermore, saliva testing is adequate to detect individuals in an asymptomatic screening program and can help improve voluntary screening compliance for those individuals averse to various forms of nasal collections.

Abstract: Heat islands (HI) are a common anthropogenic phenomenon and are defined as artificial surfaces (urban areas) that have a higher average temperature than their surroundings (rural areas). The aim of this work was to determine the influence of land use on the spatial distribution and intensity (HIi ) of HI in Slovenia. The MODIS Land Surface Temperature (LST) and Corine Land Cover (CLC) databases were used to perform the analysis. Within the identified HI, two HI levels were determined based on temperature difference. The results revealed a statistically significant negative correlation between HIi and both forest co%ver and forest fragmentation (forest edge density and ratio of mean forest patch size to HI size). Artificial surface was positively correlated with HIi . The results contribute to the understanding of the spatial distribution of HI and HIi and provide informati%on for spatial planning and policy-making to reduce the negative impact of HI.

Abstract: Pogoste ujme v zadnjih letih so velik izziv pri gospodarjenju z zasebnimi gozdovi in povečujejo aktivnost vseh deležnikov vzdolž gozdno-lesne verige. V prispevku smo naredili pregled literature o sanaciji v ujmah poškodovanih zasebnih gozdov, s ciljem identificirati ovire, s katerimi se zasebni lastniki srečujejo pri sanaciji, in rešitve za hitrejšo in učinkovitejšo sanacijo. Po pregledu relevantne literature smo v končno analizo vključili 59 člankov in 25 zapisnikov dela koordinacijske skupine za sanacijo posledic vetroloma. Rezultati so pokazali, da se raziskovalci z identifikacijo ovir do sedaj še niso sistematično ukvarjali. Identificirali smo 51 ovir, ki smo jih razvrstili v 7 skupin, ter 68 rešitev, ki smo jih združili v 11 skupin. Največ raziskovalcev se je doslej ukvarjalo z ovirami iz skupine %Značilnosti zasebnih lastnikov gozdov% ter z rešitvami iz skupine %Sodelovanje med deležniki%. Nazadnje smo identificirane ovire povezali s primernimi rešitvami za sanacijo in ugotovili, da vse identificirane rešitve pomenijo rešitev za vsaj eno izmed ovir in da ima vsaka ovira vsaj eno rešitev. Raziskava je šele prvi, vendar pomemben korak pri spoznavanju dejavnikov odločanja za sanacijo in nadaljnje gospodarjenje v ujmah poškodovanih zasebnih gozdov.
