Curonian Spit
[Info] [GM] [BM] [YM]
By: AlbinoFlea
@ 2005-08-18 12:08:21
Inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage List in 2000.

From theUNESCO Advisory Body Recommendation:

The Curonian Spit is a sandy peninsula that separates the Baltic Sea and the Curonian Lagoon. It stretches in a slightly concave arc for a distance of 98km (52km in Lithuania, 46km in Russia) from the Kaliningrad peninsula to the town of Klaipeda, and it varies in width from 0.4 to 3.8km. which stretches for 72km and varies in width between 250m and 1.2km. The average height is 35m, but in places the dunes rise to more than 60m. Dune valleys divide the ridge into separate dune massifs, and capes are generally formed in front of these valleys. At the present time more than half the ridge is forested.

The most significant element of the Spit’s cultural heritage is represented by the old fishing settlements. The earliest of these were buried in sand when the woodland cover was removed. Those that have survived since the beginning of the 19th century are all to be found along the coast of the Curonian Lagoon. At the end of that century more elaborate buildings – lighthouses, churches, schools, and villas – began to be erected alongside the simpler vernacular houses. This was due in part to the fact that the Spit became a recreational centre: Juodkrante became famous as a health resort as early as 1840 and Nida, Preila, and Pervalka were given official recognition in this category in 1933.

The Curonian Spit is shared by both Lithuania and the Russian Oblast of Kaliningrad.]]>

Shiretoko Peninsula
[Info] [GM] [BM] [YM]
By: albinoflea
@ 2005-07-26 07:42:36
Recently inscribed on UNESCO's World Heritage List.

From the Advisory Body Evaluation:
The Shiretoko peninsula was formed by volcanic activities and uplift from the Pacific Plate subducting under the North American Plate. The Peninsula comprises a number of volcanoes running along the centre of the peninsula and including the highest peak within the nominated property, Mount Rausu (1,661m). The coastlines on the east and west sides of the peninsula were formed by a combination of volcanic
activities, tectonic movement and marine erosion. For example, sea cliffs around Utoro range from 60m to 120m in height and were formed from andesitic lava
from the eruption of Mt Rausu 80,000 years ago and subsequent marine erosion.
The key feature of the property is the productivity of the marine and terrestrial ecosystem, reflecting the formation
of seasonal sea ice at the lowest latitude among the world’s seasonal sea ice in the northern hemisphere. The formation of the sea ice plays an integral role in the
formation of the phytoplankton which develops on the nutrients supplied by the sea ice. Blooms of ice algae and other phytoplankton occur earlier in spring as ice
melts faster than other sea ice areas. The phytoplankton is the primary producer in the marine ecosystem and provides the source of food for krill and zooplankton such as small shrimp, which in turn become food for small fish, crustacean and shellfish. These in turn become food sources for fish, marine mammals, such as seals and sea lions, as well as birds including the Steller’s sea eagle and the White-tailed eagle. In addition, salmon
and trout swim upstream to spawn and become an important food source for terrestrial species, including the brown bear and the Blakiston’s fish-owl.]]>
