    Positive trends in plant, dragonfly and butterfly diversity of rewetted montane peatlands (2019) Restoration Ecology 2019 (28), S. 796-806. DOI: 10.1111/rec.12957

    Drainage and afforestation of peatlands cause extensive habitat degradation and species losses. Restoration supports peatlandbiodiversity by creating suitable habitat conditions, including stable high water tables. However, colonization by characteristicspecies can take decades or even fail. Peatland recovery is often monitored shortly after restoration, but initial trends may notcontinue, and results might differ among taxonomic groups. This study analyzes trends in plant, dragonfly, and butterflydiversity within 18 years after rewetting of montane peatlands in central Germany. We compared diversity and speciescomposition of 19 restored sites with three drained peatlands and one near-natural reference site. Restoration resulted inimproved habitat conditions and benefited species diversity, but there were marked differences among taxonomic groups.Dragonflies rapidly colonized small water bodies but their diversity did not further increase in older restoration sites.Characteristic peatland vegetation recovered slowly, since it depended on a high water holding capacity that was onlyreached after peat started accumulating. Generally, plant diversity developed toward reference conditions albeit incompletely,even 18 years after restoration. Butterflies responded less to peatland restoration; generalists increased only temporarilyand specialists could not establish. In conclusion, peatland restoration improves habitat conditions and biodiversity, whiletrajectories of recovery are nonlinear and incomplete after two decades. This highlights the need for long-term monitoringand a strategic selection of indicator species for evaluation of restoration success.

    Fracking (2019) Technical Information Note. Landscape Institute: London 04/2019 .

    Hydraulic fracturing (also called fracking or sometimes fraccing; in this Technical Note the terms are used synonymously) is a way of extracting gas (and sometimes oil) from shale rock. Both terms refer to the injection of water, sand and chemicals into the rock at high pressure to break the shale and release the gas, a process sometimes called well stimulation.

    Road Safety from Cyclist’s Perspective Magdalena (2019) REAL CORP 2019 , S. 597-604.

    Road safety is an essential design requirement in planning processes of cycling infrastructure. An evaluation criterion for safety are accident statistics, but this criterion lacks reliability with regard to cycling accidents because many accidents are not documented. In addition, an exclusive view of accident statistics only is inadequate because road safety also includes aspects such as objective as well as subjective safety of cyclists. In order to consider the cyclist’s perspective in the planning of cycling facilities, an exploratory study, based on the concept of the Urban Emotions Inititative, was carried out in Augsburg and presented in this contribution. The aim of the study was to investigate the influence of cycling infrastructure on the cyclist's stress and the perception of safety. As a result, 1040 stress situations of 26 cyclists were measured over a distance of 5.0 km using biostatistical measurement technology. 347 stress situations refer directly to road infrastructure and perceived safety. In addition, data from traffic and urban planning as well as other self-collected data regarding objective traffic safety were used to assess the cycling infrastructure. The analysis of the study shows that the objective analysis of road infrastructure and the subjective sense of safety of the cyclists are in many cases corresponding. An interesting result was that stress situations can differ in the same types of cycling facilities. A conclusion for stress and perception of safety is that constructive detail is more detached from stress triggers than the type of cycling facilities in general. An important issue is surface design. Bumps, damaged pavement and tram rails are often stressful, especially in combination with other road users. There are no clear differences in the frequency of conflicts between car drivers, pedestrians and cyclists. The number of stressful situations, in which a pedestrian was involved, was slightly predominant. Stress situations were caused through inappropriate use of cycle lanes, problems with orientation, confusing paths and a lack of acceptance of some types of cycle facilities. Base for this contribution is the bachelor thesis Road Safety from Cyclists´ Perspective.
