Der Lachs (Salmo salar), ein Symbol für gesundes, sauberes Wasser, für Kraft und Lebensfreude und für eine intakte Natur, ist aus vielfältigen Gründen in vielen Fließgewässern Europas ausgestorben bzw. in seinem Bestand gefährdet: - Überfischung im Meer; - Verbauung der Wanderwege zu den Laichgewässern; - Zerstörung der Lebensräume in den Fließgewässern; - Umweltkatastrophen. Seit Jahren laufen europaweit Maßnahmen, um den Lachs wieder heimisch zu machen. Nach den ersten positiven Erfahrungen mit Wiederansiedlungsprojekten des Lachses, gründete sich im Jahre 2001 der Verein „Der Atlantische Lachs e.V.“ - eine Vereinigung, die nationale Aktivitäten zur Erhaltung und zur Wiedereinbürgerung des Lachses und anderer diadromer Fischarten unterstützt und koordiniert. ...

Auf diesen Seiten dreht sich alles um Hummeln [lat. Bombus], den fleissigeren Schwestern der Bienen. Denn leider sind Hummeln zum Teil stark gefährdet und werden von ihrem größten Feind – dem Menschen – rücksichtslos verdrängt und vernichtet. Oft geschieht dies aus mangelndem Wissen oder unbegründeten Ängsten. Gegen beides will diese Homepage etwas beitragen und Ihnen zeigen, wie liebenswürdig und schützenswert unsere Hummeln sind. ...

Interaktives Forum zur Erstellung von Bestimmungstabellen für Käfer, das allen Autoren die Möglichkeit gibt, ohne Kosten ihre Erkenntnisse der Allgemeinheit zur Verfügung zu stellen. Gegebenfalls wird auf andere Sites verwiesen, in denen Sachverhalte zur Biologie oder Verbreitung dargestellt sind. Die Familientabellen sind in erster Linie für Anfänger bestimmt und daher nicht streng nach systematischen oder phylogentischen Gesichtspunkten aufgebaut. Der fortgeschrittene Entomologe kann sich aus den alphabetischen oder systematischen Listen gleich die Familie oder Gattung heraussuchen, in der er bestimmen möchte. ...

The EuMon project attempts to provide a European framework that standardizes, focuses and coordinates existing monitoring programs by comparing and integrating existing methods and monitoring schemes of species and habitats of community interests. The most successful methods in terms of cost effectiveness, regional robustness will be selected and tested for their European wide applicability. EuMon will pay special attention that existing monitoring programs can incorporate these methods and will give recommendations how new and successful monitoring programs can be established.Special consideration for implementing monitoring programs will be paid by studying the social effects of monitoring regimes, because the relationship between amateurs and professionals are meant to be most important for implementing a successful monitoring regime.The establishing of the NATURA 2000 network is one of the main actions on a European level to halt biodiversity loss. Therefore it is a prerequisite to evaluate its ability to maintain biodiversity. Additionally EuMon will develop methods to name the responsibility of EU Member states for the species and habitats of Community interests living under their protection.A comprehensive database on monitoring schemes and recommended methods will be established and made accessible via an Internet portal. ...
