Wien bemüht sich zu Recht, eine 'grüne Musterstadt' zu werden. Von ihren natürlichen Voraussetzungen her ist diese Stadt in einzigartiger Weise begünstigt wie kaum eine andere europäische Metropole. Gelegen am Schnittpunkt mehrerer Großlandschaften, hat sich der Wiener Raum zu einer Drehscheibe von Faunen und Floren aus Süd und Nord, West und Ost entwickelt. Das Hauptanliegen von 'Ökosystem Wien - Naturgeschichte einer Stadt' ist es, die Kräfte und Zusammenhänge anschaulich zu machen, die seit Jahrtausenden zu der ökologischen Sonderstellung dieser Stadt geführt haben. Zugleich soll der Blick geöffnet werden für die unterschiedlichen Landschaften und Ökosysteme, die hier aufeinandertreffen. Zu sehen, was vor den Augen liegt, ist eine in der urbanen Gesellschaft nicht selbstverständliche Fähigkeit. Sie ist heute jedoch notwendiger denn je, wenn wir das einzigartige Naturerbe des Wiener Raumes erhalten wollen.

This book presents the current state of the art in Social Ecology as practiced by the Vienna School of Social Ecology, globally one of the main research groups in this field. As a significant contribution to the growing literature on interdisciplinary sustainability studies, the book introduces the purpose and nature of Social Ecology and then places the “Vienna School” within the broader context of socioecological and other interdisciplinary environmental approaches. The conceptual and methodological foundations of Social Ecology are discussed in detail, allowing the reader to obtain a broad overview of current socioecological thinking. Issues covered include socio-metabolic transitions, socioecological approaches to land use, the relation between actor-centered and system approaches, a socioecological theory of labor and the importance of legacies, as conceived in Environmental History and in Long-Term Socio-Ecological Research. To underpin this overview empirically, the strengths of socioecological research are elucidated in cases of cutting-edge research, introducing a variety of themes the Vienna School has been tackling empirically over the past years. Given how the field is presented – reflecting research carried out on different scales, reaching from local to global as well as from past to present and future – and due to the way the book is structured, it is suitable for classroom use, as a primer, and also as an overview of how Social Ecology evolved, right up to its current research frontiers.

Here we report on a 25-year long-term sequence of measures to return a deteriorated recreational urban lake, Alte Donau in Vienna to acceptable water quality. Metropolitan waters require focused ecosystem management plans and intensive in-lake efforts. We explored physico-chemical conditions, food web from viruses to fish and water birds, the sediments, the littoral zone and the catchment, management and urban planning, and global warming. Several restoration techniques were tested and critically evaluated. The final management plan was based on bi-stable theory. During the recovery phase, numerous surplus adjustments had to be implemented to secure sustainable achievement.

Die 5. "Verhandlungen der Gesellschaft fur Okologie" enthalten die Vortrage der vom 22. bis 24. September 197 5 in Wien durchgefuhrten J ahrestagung. Schwer punktsmassig behandeln die Referate alpine und arktische Okosysteme, die okologi schen und genetischen Voraussetzungen fur das Leben in Trockengebieten sowie limnische Okosysteme. Durch die Berucksichtigung der diese Systeme tangierenden IBP- und MAB-Forschungsprogramme liefern sie zugleich auch aktuelle Informa tionen uber laufende Forschungsprojekte unserer Osterreichischen und schweizer Kollegen. Struktudle und energetische Untersuchungen uber einzelne Okosysteme, Biozo nosen und Populationen stehen dabei im Vordergrund. Die vorgelegten Arbeiten verdeutlichen, dass jedes lebendige System uber die Kenntnis seiner Struktur, Funk tion und Geschichte Informationen zu einem tieferen Verstandnis des von ihm belebten Raumes liefert. Sie zeigen, dass letztlich jeder Suche nach "Belastungsindi katoren" und "okologischen Kriterien" die Frage nach dem Informationsgehalt von Organismen und lebenden Systemen sowie deren Reaktionen auf endo- und exogene Faktoren zugrunde liegt. Sowohl aus Veranderungen der Areal- und Okosysteme, als auch aus Wandlungen von Biozonosen und deren Reaktionen wurden Ruckschlusse auf die diese Veranderungen auslosenden Faktoren gezogen. Populationen und Bio zonosen reagieren naturgemass nach eigenen Regeln, konnen jedoch nur existieren, wenn sie bestandig auch Informationen uber andere Komponenten aus ihrem Ver breitungsgebiet speichern und verarbeiten. Diese adaptiven Fahigkeiten der unter suchten Arten und Systeme sind jedoch noch weitgehend unbearbeitet. Hier klafft eine echte Lucke, die den Transfer okologischer Daten z. B. in di. c Landesplanung erschwert. Die Qualitat jeder Planung hangt weitgehend von den eingesetzten okologischen, sozialen und wirtschaftlichen Erhebungsdaten ab."

This book intends to identify and publicize the unique features of Austrian geomorphology. In a country, which stretches from the core of the European Alps to the Hungarian plain, there is huge variety of landforms and landscapes. This book reveals that variety. Part 1 sets the context of the Austrian landscape as a whole. Part 2 is the core of the volume and comprises a careful selection of the most outstanding landscapes in Austria. Each of the chapters results from detailed research conducted by an author over many years. Austria’s landscapes are especially attractive because of the great variety of topographic slopes, geologic foundations and the special landscape legacy from the Quaternary period. Glacial and Karst landscapes dominate, but there are superb examples of granite weathering landscapes and geologically recent volcanism. The book is lavishly illustrated with about 350 color images and is securely based on scientific scholarship.

The second-longest European river after the Volga, the Danube is one of the world’s most important rivers in terms of its geographical and historical significance. In recent history, it has served as a major international waterway and numerous cities, including four capitals, have been founded on its banks. The 2826km-long Danube has a watershed measuring 801,093 km2 that is now shared between 19 countries, from its source in the Black Forest to the Black Sea, into which it pumps an average of 827 km3 of water a year. This book describes and explains key landscape values interactions (geographical, cultural and natural heritage). It also identifies the threats and various types of human impact affecting this system in all the countries of the Danube River Basin, based on the investigations and perspectives of a team of experienced naturalists, and in the context of the early 21st century, in which the human-nature relationship is still far from balanced. These studies demonstrate how biodiversity, conservation and ecological studies can help us successfully promote mutual cooperation and combine our efforts to address problems as a responsible continent.

This guide for tomorrow’s urban practitioner systematically explains fifteen best practices across three continents; it explores questions of broad interest for designing and planning the future of cities and regions. Key questions addressed are: Is simulation useful to explore the effects of different design, policy and planning strategies? Which approach will help manage the uncertainties of metropolitan areas both today and tomorrow ? What are the strengths and weaknesses of the different simulation practices for city leadership, public and private partnership, and citizen involvement? The book reviews computer models and media, socio-political initiatives, professional practices which help communicating the future effects of different design, political and planning strategies with a wide range of aims: from information, through consultation, towards active participation. These world best practices are considered according to four leading issues for urban and regional development, respectively Simulation, Scenario and Visioning, Government and Governance, and Scale. The book examines the approaches adopted technically and procedurally. The selected knowledge and the innovative tools used in each case study are among the most advanced and up-to-date in the professional and research fields. This volume successfully illustrates these innovative practices and methodologies in a straightforward and accessible way.
