100 Days On The High Mountains Of Character

Character is often defined as an evaluation of a person's moral and mental qualities. It is the moral tone of ones life. In these pages, you will discover my attempt to explore character based on my personal experiences in moments of reflection. It brings out the reality that my role model is Jesus Christ whose character is pure, and that as we behold Him, He transforms us into His likeness. Through poetry and a corner for reflection, you will discover gems of character that will help your own to grow in strength as you behold the Source of all virtues.

Landscape Development and Climate Change in Southwest Bulgaria aims to address some of the current limitations in our understanding of past Balkan climate and environment. High mountains and their ecosystems offer an outstanding opportunity for studies on the impact of climate change. The Balkan Mountains in Southeast Europe, situated at the transition between temperate and Mediterranean climate, are considered as very sensitive to historical and current global changes. The geoarchives lake sediment, peat and soil, long living trees and glaciers have been used to reconstruct the climatically-driven change of forest and treeline during the Holocene and the younger past. These processes are interrelated with complex ecological changes, as for example the seasonality of climate parameters. The landscape research approach with the analyses through multi-palaeo-geoecological proxies is new for the Balkans.
