Abstract: Within the framework of the LIFE project Green List for Natura 2000, the Lendspitz- Maiernigg site (AT2130000, Klagenfurt, Austria) was assessed against the indicators reflecting the four criteria Equitable and Effective Governance, Design and Planning, Effective Management and Conservation Outcomes. Since 2012, graduates of the Management of Protected Areas Master’s programme at Alpe Adria University have been responsible for the site’s management in a pilot governance structure called City meets Nature. During the reflection process, it emerged that the unusual management setup met the Green List criteria very well; 89 % of the indicators were fulfilled completely or partially. However, opportunities to further improve the conservation status of species at the site are limited due to the urban surroundings. The IUCN Green List’s feedback complimented those involved for active management. Self-assessment provided a helpful overview of successes and areas where there is room for improvement. The feedback of the Green List mentor on the project results was particularly encouraging. The example of Lendspitz-Maiernigg shows that the comprehensive governance and management approach presented here is feasible for Natura 2000 sites as well, especially in an urban setting.

The journal was founded as a joint initiative of the Alpine Network of Protected Areas (ALPARC), the International Scientific Committee on Research in the Alps (ISCAR), the Austrian Academy of Sciences (ÖAW) and the University of Innsbruck. The journal aims to highlight research on and management issues in protected areas in the Alps without excluding other protected mountain areas in Europe or overseas. Its target audiences are scientists from all related disciplines, managers of protected areas and interested individuals including practitioners, visitors, teachers, etc. The journal presents peer-reviewed articles in English by authors who research protected mountain areas and management issues within these areas. It's published twice a year as a collaboration of the Austrian Academy of Sciences Press – responsible for the e-version – and Innsbruck University Press – responsible for the print version. Die Zeitschrift „eco.mont“ – Zeitschrift zur Forschung in Gebirgsschutzgebieten – erschien im Juni 2009 zum ersten Mal. Die Zeitschrift wurde auf Initiative des Netzwerks Alpiner Schutzgebiete (ALPARC), der Schweizer Akademie der Naturwissenschaften (ISCAR), der Österreichischen Akademie der Wissenschaften (ÖAW) und der Universität Innsbruck gegründet. Sie hat das Ziel, Themen zu behandeln, die gleichzeitig Forschung und Verwaltung in und über die Schutzgebiete der Alpen betreffen, ohne dabei andere Gebirgsschutzgebiete Europas oder anderswo auszuschließen. Diese neue Zeitschrift richtet sich an ein Publikum von Wissenschaftlern der verschiedensten Fachbereiche, an die Verwalter von Schutzgebieten und an alle sonstigen Interessierten, Praktiker, Besucher, Lehrpersonal etc. einbegriffen. Die Zeitschrift veröffentlicht begutachtete Beiträge auf Englisch von Autoren, die Fragen der Gebirgsschutzgebiete und deren Verwaltung betreffen. Sie erscheint zweimal pro Jahr, auf der Basis der gemeinsamen Anstrengungen des Verlags der Österreichischen Akademie der Wissenschaften, der für die digitale Fassung verantwortlich ist, und der Presse der Universität Innsbruck, verantwortlich für die gedruckte Fassung. |
