    The Baltic Sea Atlas (http://bio-50.io-warnemuende.de/iowbsa/index.php) was implemented to storeand share marine spatial planning data and datasets from the BONUS BASMATI project. Data areused in the projectā€™s case studies. Additional datasets were included to provide examples on whatkind of data can be used in marine spatial planning to account for ecosystem services. Datacategories, data properties and metadata information follow the recommendations of Deliverable 3.1.The Baltic Sea Atlas is based on the open source webGIS framework kvwmap. The application ishosted at the Institute for Baltic Sea Research WarnemĆ¼nde, Germany and connected to themetadata portal of the institute. The application provides simple visualisation including basicoperation tools. The access via login and password allows data sharing with the project partners andother interested users, while ensuring basic licence agreements.</p

    Å ajā darbā ir aplÅ«kota ekoloÄ£iski nozÄ«mÄ«gas augsnes sÄ«kposmkāju grupas ā€“ kolembolu dinamika priežu lāna augsnē laika periodā no 1992.-2000. gadam uz klimata pasiltināŔanās fona. PētÄ«jumi veikti Latvijas nacionālā ilgtermiņa ekoloÄ£isko pētÄ«jumu tÄ«kla parauglaukumos pie Mazsalacas, Ziemeļvidzemes biosfēras rezervātā. PētÄ«ta kolembolu blÄ«vuma, sugu dominances struktÅ«ras un sugu daudzveidÄ«bas izmaiņas uz temperatÅ«ras un nokriŔņu svārstÄ«bu fona. Tie ir ilgtermiņa ekoloÄ£iskie pētÄ«jumi, kas veikti Nacionāla ilgtermiņa ekoloÄ£isko pētÄ«jumu tÄ«kla programmas ietvaros un tiek veikti jau kopÅ” 1992. gada. Atslēgvārdi: Kolembola, priežu lāns, klimata pasiltināŔanāsThe paper discusses changes in Collembola community of pine forest soils on the background of climate warming during 1992 ā€“ 2000. The study was performed as a part of research programme of the National Long-term Ecological research network of Latvia at the forest sites near the town Mazsalaca in the North Vidzeme Biosphere Reserve. Changes in abundance, relative abundance structure and species diversity were investigated on the background of year-to-year fluctuations of temperature and precipitation. Key words: Collembola, pine forest, climate warmin

    MaÄ£istra darbā ā€žTālizpētes lāzerdatu (LiDAR) izmantoÅ”anas iespējas jÅ«ras krasta Ä£eoloÄ£isko procesu pētÄ«jumosā€ tiek salÄ«dzinātas divas jÅ«ras krastu pētÄ«Å”anas metodes ā€“ ar krasta transektu lÄ«nijām un izmantojot lāzerdatus. Darbā tiek izvērtēta lāzerdatu pielietojamÄ«ba jÅ«ras krasta monitoringā un pētÄ«ti erozijas un akumulācijas processi Latvijas jÅ«ras piekrastē. Darbā tika iegÅ«ti un analizēti trÄ«sdimensionāli dati par piecām izpētes vietām Latvijas jÅ«ras piekrastē. LiDAR dati tika analizēti izpētes vietās Lilastē, JÅ«rkalnē un Liepenē. Zvejniekciemā, abpus Skultes ostai LiDAR dati tika salÄ«dzināti ar dabā uzmērÄ«tiem Ŕķērsprofiliem. Izpētes vietā pie Liepājas tika pētÄ«ta krasta erozija izmantojot 2007. un 2008. gada LiDAR datus. Atslēgvārdi: LiDAR, jÅ«ras krasts, monitorings, erozija, akumulācijaIn this Master thesis ā€žUsage of LIDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) technology in the research of geological processes of sea-coastā€ are compared two coast researching methods: the method of transect lines and the method of laser data. In this paper is evaluated the usage of laser data for sea-coast monitoring and studied accumulation and erosion processes in Latvian sea-coast. Latviaā€™s sea-coast was analysed processing three-dimensional data taken from five research places. In Lilaste, Liepene and JÅ«rkalne were analysed LiDAR data. In Zvejniekciems LiDAR data were compared with measured field research profiles. In Liepāja were compared LiDAR data of years 2007 and 2008. Keywords: LiDAR, sea-coast, monitoring, erosion, accumulatio
