Geomorphological interpretation of apatite fission-track data — results from the Steinwald region, NE-Bavaria

All available seismological data (earthquake epicentres, macroseismic observations) and the available structural-tectonical, geomorphological and geodetic data for the transition area of two fundamental orogenetic units of Central Europe -the Eastern Alps and the Western Carpathians -are analyzed, with the aim to find seismogenic zones of this area and to assess their possible earthquake activity. The relationship of small local geological structures to the fundamental European tectonic blocks is discussed from the viewpoint of seismotectonic processes expected for the transition area, especially in the Vienna Basin and in the Little Carpathians.The special attention is paid to the densely inhabited area of the city of Bratislava which is situated in the territory under study. Some results could contribute to its further urban planning. On several faults or boundaries in the Western Carpathians relatively intense horizontal displacements have been observed. Fundamental movements on faults of NS to NE-SW directions have mostly sinistral character while on some faults of ENE-WSW direction they are dextral. In the southern parts of the investigated area, dextral movements on local faults of NW-SE direction have been found. A neotectonic model of the broader surroundings of the city of Bratislava is presented.

Die Salmonella-Verunreinigung der Donau durch Abwässer in Bratislava 2. Mitteilung

The occurrence of Salmonella in the main sewer of the city of Bratislava and in the Danube river 50. 100, and 200 meters below its outfall was investigated during one year. Samples were taken regularly once per month. The presence of Salmonella was tested in 0,1, 1, 10, 50, 100, and 200 ml. of water. Salmonella was proved directly in the sewage in the 0,1 ml. and 1 ml. sample of the Danubewater in all three investigated distances below the outfall of the sewage. There was not detected any difference in the occurrence of these pathogenic bacteria in relation to the seasons. Altogether 623 strains of Salmonella belonging to 6 serological groups and 34 sero- and lysotypes were isolated. S. paratyphi B, S. bareilly, S. typhi-murium, and S. anatum were the most frequent types. Finding of Salmonella in water samples was compared with their occurrence in men and animals in the area of the city of Bratislava. Significantly more serological types were proved in water samples than in men and animals. Im Laufe eines Jahres verfolgten wir das Salmonella-Vorkommen im Abwasser eines von zwei Hauptkanälen in Bratislava sowie auch im Donauwasser in 50, 100 und 200 m Entfernung unterhalb der Kanalmündung. Die Salmonellen wurden im 0,1, 1, 10, 50, 100 und 200 ml Wasser geprüft. Es wurde die Membranfilter-Methode verwendet. In 0,1 ml Wasser haben wir die Salmonellen direkt im Abwasser, in 1 ml auch im Donauwasser in allen drei geprüften Entfernungen unterhalb der Kanalmündung nachgewiesen. Im Hinblick auf die Jahreszeiten haben wir keinen Unterschied im Vorkommen dieser pathogenen Bakterien konstatiert. Insgesamt haben wir 623 Salmonella-Stämme, die 6 Serogruppen und 34 Sero- und Lysotypen angehörten, isoliert. Die meisten Stämme waren von dem Serotyp S. paratyphi B, S. bareilly, S. typhi-murium und S. anatum. Die Salmonella-Befunde in den Wasserproben haben wir mit ihrem Vorkommen bei Mensch und Tier im Gebiet von Bratislava verglichen; im Wasser wurden wesentlich mehr Serotypen als bei Menschen und Tieren festgestellt.

loaned types and other material in connection with the work resulting in the present contribution. When dealing with Astragalus one is never sure how far one's researches are going to range, and second and even third requests for types which have become necessary as the work has proceeded have been borne patiently by, in particular, the authorities at Berlin (B), Bratislava (BAV), Geneva (G), Jena (JE), Jerusalem (HUJ), Leningrad (LE), Lund (LD), Paris (P) and Vienna (W, WU). I am grateful to the Director of the Moravian Museum, Brno (BRNM) for the loan of many Freyn types, and thanks are also due to Mr. H. K. Airy Shaw for correcting all Latin descriptions.
