Ljuta (Dindolka)
Ljuta, also called Dindolka, is one of the main tributaries of the first section of the Neretva river, also called Upper Neretva ''( bs, Gornja Neretva)''. It meets Neretva from the right, flowing from north to south, between Treskavica and Visočica mountains. Geography The Ljuta river begins as Srednja Voda creek ''()'' from "Baletina Voda" spring ''()'' that emerges in the areal above Ljuta village, under the northwestern ridge of Treskavica mountain, and after a short run, cca. 5 kilometers, it joins with the Bijela Vodica and Božija Vodica creeks where it become the Ljuta. The Ljuta river forms a cca 30km long valley squeezed between Treskavica and Visočica, southeast from Sarajevo. Protection Bosnia and Herzegovina on several occasions, since 1998, was preparing to establish a large national park which, according to developed but never operationalized plans, would comprise the entire region of Gornja Neretva ''( en, Upper Neretva)'', including region between the Ra ...

Visočica (mountain)
Visočica ( sr-cyrl, Височица) is a mountain range in central Bosnia and Herzegovina. Geologically, Visočica is part of the Dinaric Alps and formed largely of secondary and tertiary sedimentary rock, mostly limestone and dolomite. Due to subterranean non-porous geological layers, the typical karst characteristics of the nearby Herzegovina mountains are relatively absent in Visočica, resulting in enough water sources, even at heights around 1500–1700 m. Springtime lakes, though, tend to dry out soon towards the summer. Some smaller streams source from these mountains as tributaries to its bordering rivers: the Ljuta in the east, the Rakitnica on its northern and western slopes and the Neretva towards the south. Notable peaks are Džamija (1974 m.), Vito (1960 m.), Veliko Ljeljen (1963 m.), Crveni Kuk (1733 m.) and Veliko Toholj (1837 m.). Skiing and hiking The Visočica mountains were on the edges affected by the heavy combat that was going on around the Treskavica an ...

Dindo, Konjic
Dindo is a village in the municipality of Konjic, in the Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina entity of Bosnia and Herzegovina. Dindo is located in a mountainous rural area in the south-eastern part of Konjic Municipality on the border with Kalinovik Municipality, which also marks the Inter-Entity Boundary Line (IEBL) between the two constituent entities of Bosnia and Herzegovina, FB&H and RS. A bridge carrying an important road across the Ljuta, a right tributary of the Neretva, was destroyed in 1995 during the last days of the Bosnian War before the signing of the Dayton Agreement. The destroyed bridge was replaced with a Bailey bridge in 2002. The work was undertaken by a Spanish Engineering Unit of SFOR based in Mostar Mostar (, ; sr-Cyrl, Мостар, ) is a city and the administrative center of Herzegovina-Neretva Canton of the Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina, an entity of Bosnia and Herzegovina, and the historical capital of Herzegovina.

Nature Conservation In Bosnia And Herzegovina
Nature, in the broadest sense, is the physical world or universe. "Nature" can refer to the phenomena of the physical world, and also to life in general. The study of nature is a large, if not the only, part of science. Although humans are part of nature, human activity is often understood as a separate category from other natural phenomena. The word ''nature'' is borrowed from the Old French ''nature'' and is derived from the Latin word ''natura'', or "essential qualities, innate disposition", and in ancient times, literally meant " birth". In ancient philosophy, ''natura'' is mostly used as the Latin translation of the Greek word '' physis'' (φύσις), which originally related to the intrinsic characteristics of plants, animals, and other features of the world to develop of their own accord. The concept of nature as a whole, the physical universe, is one of several expansions of the original notion; it began with certain core applications of the word φύσις by pre-So ...

Tourist Attractions In Bosnia And Herzegovina
Tourism is travel for pleasure or business; also the theory and practice of touring, the business of attracting, accommodating, and entertaining tourists, and the business of operating tours. The World Tourism Organization defines tourism more generally, in terms which go "beyond the common perception of tourism as being limited to holiday activity only", as people "travelling to and staying in places outside their usual environment for not more than one consecutive year for leisure and not less than 24 hours, business and other purposes". Tourism can be domestic (within the traveller's own country) or international, and international tourism has both incoming and outgoing implications on a country's balance of payments. Tourism numbers declined as a result of a strong economic slowdown (the late-2000s recession) between the second half of 2008 and the end of 2009, and in consequence of the outbreak of the 2009 H1N1 influenza virus, but slowly recovered until the COVID-19 ...

Environmental Concerns With Electricity Generation
Electric power systems consist of generation plants of different energy sources, transmission networks, and distribution lines. Each of these components can have environmental impacts at multiple stages of their development and use including in their construction, during the generation of electricity, and in their decommissioning and disposal. These impacts can be split into operational impacts (fuel sourcing, global atmospheric and localized pollution) and construction impacts (manufacturing, installation, decommissioning, and disposal). All forms of electricity generation have some form of environmental impact. This page is organized by energy source and includes impacts such as water usage, emissions, local pollution, and wildlife displacement. More detailed information on electricity generation impacts for specific technologies and on other environmental impacts of electric power systems in general can be found under the :Environmental impact of the energy industry.

Environmental Impacts Of Dams
The environmental impact of reservoirs comes under ever-increasing scrutiny as the global demand for water and energy increases and the number and size of reservoirs increases. Dams and reservoirs can be used to supply drinking water, generate hydroelectric power, increase the water supply for irrigation, provide recreational opportunities, and flood control. In 1960 the construction of Llyn Celyn and the flooding of Capel Celyn provoked political uproar which continues to this day. More recently, the construction of Three Gorges Dam and other similar projects throughout Asia, Africa and Latin America have generated considerable environmental and political debate. Currently, 48 percent of rivers and their hydro-ecological systems are affected by reservoirs and dams. Upstream impacts Fragmentation of river ecosystems A dam acts as a barrier between the upstream and downstream movement of migratory river animals, such as salmon and trout. Some communities have also begun ... [...More Info...]       [...Related Items...]     OR:     [Wikipedia]   [Google]   [Baidu]   |
