Becoming sedentary? The seasonality of hunting in the Mesolithic-Neolithic Danube Gorges

, 2015
The Danube Gorges archaeological sequence (c. 9500-5500 cal. BC) offers great possibilities for exploring various aspects of Mesolithic-Neolithic transformations, including the changes of settlement patterns. The more intense building activities in the Late Mesolithic and Mesolithic-Neolithic ‘Transformational’ phase have been interpreted as ...

Identifying Priority Vegetation Zones for Floodplain Wetland Management Based on Hydrological and Meteorological Drivers

Water Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract While hydrology and meteorology influence floodplain wetland vegetation, their relative contributions and spatial patterns remain poorly quantified. Hydrological conditions, in particular, can be altered by anthropogenic activities such as damming.

Micro-regions of the Lepenski Vir culture: Padina in the Upper Gorge and Hajdučka Vodenica in the Lower Gorge of the Danube

Documenta Praehistorica, 2008
This paper was compelled into existence when confronting the fact that the most commonly discussed transitional period connecting the Late Mesolithic and the Early Neolithic in the Đerdap or the Iron Gates Gorges (present-day Serbia and Romania) is determined by the often emphasized lack of adequately published evidence, thus leaving this period ...

Early Use of Lime Mortar at the Early Iron Age Piscina Torta Salt Production Site (Tiber Delta, Ostia, Italy)

Geoarchaeology, Volume 41, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
ABSTRACT This study presents new evidence for the early use of lime mortar during the Early Iron Age at the Piscina Torta site (Ostia, Italy), situated on the earliest Holocene beach ridges in the southern Tiber delta. The site, which was earlier described as a briquetage site, dates from between the late 8th and 6th century BCE and consists of a large

Dramatic Decline in Organic Carbon Burial in Big Estuary Driven by Dam Construction: Insights From the Yellow River Estuary

Earth's Future, Volume 14, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Estuaries and associated shelf deposits, which bury 70%–90% of global marine organic carbon, making them key sites for marine carbon burial. Variations in total organic carbon (TOC) content and the organic carbon burial rate (OCBR) in these sediments strongly influence carbon sequestration dynamics.

Revisiting the Conservation Status of Cobitis taenia in Switzerland Using Environmental DNA

Aquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 6, Issue 1, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Freshwater loaches of the genus Cobitis are small benthic fish inhabiting fine sediments in slow‐flowing rivers and vegetated lakes. Due to their small size, low economic value and inconspicuous behaviour, they are rarely studied, and their taxonomy and distribution remain poorly understood.

Benthic Macroinvertebrate Communities in the Northern Tributaries of the “Iron Gates” Gorge (Danube River) [PDF]

Transylvanian Review of Systematical and Ecological Research, 2014
Abstract The paper presents the structure of the benthonic macro-invertebrates communities in the Berzasca, Sirinia, Liubcova, and Mraconia rivers. The results are based on quantitative benthos samples (95 samples), collected in July 2014 from 19 sampling stations within the study area.

Threatened or thriving? – The status of Serbian hoverflies on the IUCN European Red List of Hoverflies

Conservation Science and Practice, Volume 8, Issue 2, February 2026.
Spatial distribution of Critically Endangered (CR) (a), Endangered (EN) (b), and Vulnerable (VU) (c) species in Serbia, showing overlap with Prime Hoverfly Areas (PHAs) and Protected Areas (PAs). Abstract Given the widespread decline of pollinators worldwide, assessing them using the IUCN criteria is crucial to understand their conservation status ...

Reservoir Regulation has Brought a Classic River‐Dominated Delta Under Human Control

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 1, 16 January 2026.
Abstract Damming of wild rivers has trapped vast quantities of sediment that would otherwise nourish deltas, causing severe sediment deficits and accelerating delta erosion worldwide. The Yellow River Delta (YRD), once prograding seaward at ∼10 km2/yr, began retreating at −5.6 km2/yr following completion of the Xiaolangdi Reservoir.

Dance and Festivals in Serbian Villages along the Romanian Danube Gorge: Contextualizing Selena Rakočević’s Research

Conservatorium / Konservatoryum, 2023
This paper aims to frame and contextualize Selena’s research between 2010 and 2019 in villages with a Serbian population situated in the Danube Gorge in Romania and in particular the village of Svinit,a (Svinica). Selena’s research focus was on the community dance practices and local customs and festivals, and especially interethnic/cross-cultural ...
