The activity of selected gamma radionuclides in the Tatra National Park

open access: yesE3S Web of Conferences, 2017
Cesium is naturally occurring active metal, represented by one stable isotope 133Cs, and number of artificial, unstable, isotopes. The most common artificial isotope of cesium is 137Cs, present in the environment of the Tatra Mountains due to nuclear ...

Karst and vaucluse springs from the Polish Tatra Mts. Results of long-term stationary investigations

open access: yesActa Carsologica, 2016
Kraški (vokliški) izviri, ki dovajajo vodo iz kraško-razpoklinskega sistema, so nastali z razvojem krasa na tem ozemlju. To so obenem glavni vir hidrografskih podatkov o preučevanem kraškem ozemlju.

Biodiversity in mountain soils above the treeline

open access: yesBiological Reviews, Volume 100, Issue 5, Page 1877-1949, October 2025.
ABSTRACT Biological diversity in mountain ecosystems has been increasingly studied over the last decade. This is also the case for mountain soils, but no study to date has provided an overall synthesis of the current state of knowledge. Here we fill this gap with a first global analysis of published research on cryptogams, microorganisms, and fauna in ...

The estimation of errors in calculated terrain corrections in the Tatra Mountains

open access: yesContributions to Geophysics and Geodesy, 2010
In general, calculation of terrain corrections can be a substantial source of errors in evaluating Bouguer anomalies, especially in rugged mountainous areas like the Tatra Mountains where we also get the largest values of the terrain corrections as such.

From Genes to Shapes: Exploring Local Adaptation in Carpathian Ox‐Eye Daisies

open access: yesJournal of Biogeography, Volume 52, Issue 8, August 2025.
ABSTRACT Aim Historical processes have shaped the Carpathian biogeography, yet ongoing evolutionary forces continue to drive population differentiation. We aimed to test whether local adaptation in the Carpathian subendemic Leucanthemum rotundifolium correlates with genetic, morphological and environmental factors, and to assess how these patterns ...

The Little Ice Age in the Tatra Mountains

open access: yesCuadernos de Investigación Geográfica, 2018
The Little Ice Age (LIA) in the Tatras was characterized by both long and short rainy periods (mostly long cold rainy summers) alternated with warm periods that sometimes were very dry. Definite, precise identification of the onset and ending of the LIA in the Tatras is not possible. Depending on the criteria adopted, the limits of the actual onset and

An upgraded key for identifying all native species, subspecies and varieties of the genus Carex (Cyperaceae) in Europe and the Caucasus

open access: yesNordic Journal of Botany, Volume 2025, Issue 8, August 2025.
The last pan‐European key to Carex taxa was published in 1980 by Chater. Since that time several new species have been described, and numerous nomenclatural changes, including the recognition that the former genus Kobresia should be incorporated into Carex as C. subg. Euthyceras, have been made. This article provides a comprehensive key to identify all

Losing seasonal patterns in a hibernating omnivore? Diet quality proxies and faecal cortisol metabolites in brown bears in areas with and without artificial feeding.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2020
Bears are omnivores particularly well-adapted to variations in the nutritional composition, quality and availability of food resources. Artificial feeding practices have been shown to strongly influence diet composition and seasonality, as well as to ...

Trophic Interactions Are Key to Understanding the Effects of Global Change on the Distribution and Functional Role of the Brown Bear

open access: yesGlobal Change Biology, Volume 31, Issue 6, June 2025.
This study shows that what animals eat—and where their food lives—can strongly influence where the animals themselves are found, even across entire continents. By modeling the diet and habitat of the brown bear across Europe, the research reveals that including food web relationships improves predictions of where bears live now and where they might ...
