Rationale
- Why do you think this case is relevant? What is your hypothesis considering the landscape challenges?
Sacele-Corbu area is very important as a mixt scientific reserve that is part of Danube Delta Biosphere Reserve (DDBR). The area is characterized by the species of birds that give a special fauna to this area, of which a large number are protected species. The site is a major wintering and passage site for numerous bird species, such as Red-necked Goose (Branta ruficollis). The plants in the area have a very important role in soil stabilization and erosion erosion. It is also an area that is already dedicated to practicing the helium-sea tourism and is characterized by wild beaches. The two areas have no tourist destination but are part of the Danube Delta Biosphere Reserve, being a public domain of national interest.
Location and scope
You can edit this map with the map editor
A Landscape System Analysis
A.1 Landscape layers and their system context
=== Geomorphology, landscape units and coastal typology ===
- Description of evolution, status quo and driving forces, is the coastal typology changing? Why is that? (approx 200 signs)
- add 1-2 graphical representations to the image gallery, you can add more if you like
According to the geomorphologic division of the coastal area, our area of interest is part of the Nordic Unit where for the boundary of the coastal zone, the width shall be set at the maximum limit of 150 m from the longest line of the sea (Governamental Decision 749/2004).
On the territory of Săcele commune, the coastal area falls within the Chituc Grindel area, in the buffer zone of the RBDD and in the economic zone of the RBDD, as described in the functional areas of RBDD of GD 248/1994 - Annex 1. - On the territory of Corbu commune the coastal area falls within the economic zone of the RBDD;
The sedimentary unit from this area is from the Zatoane to the Midia Port and is divided into two sub-sectors Chituc and Corbu (Cape Midia). Chituc Description: Length about 19 km. Beaches formed by a series of fossil barrier beaches, made up of sediments brought by the Danube, redistributed by waves and currents, and shells. Type of shore, sedimentary characteristics: Severe coastal sedimentary stream moving southwards. The sediments are brought by the Danube, with a quantity of shells. There are significant amounts of heavy minerals present in beach sediments due to relative enrichment (selective remobilization of light silicon minerals, while heavy minerals have remained or have been transported at smaller distances). The coastline is north - east - south - west from Portita to Midia, and is exposed to the strongest windstorms in the north. There is, therefore, a strong supply of seaside sediments in the south. This area faces mild erosion, but is generally stable along the southern unit, where a certain influence of the Midia dams can be felt. Coastal dynamics: Poor-stable erosion to the south (approximately 1.5 m / year)
CORBU - CAP MIDIA Description: Length about 13 km. Pocket beaches accumulated in front of the cliffs. There is no contribution from the cliff, which is mainly composed of the banks. Sediments are from the Danube and consist of shells. It is a natural area without protection. Type of shore, sedimentary characteristics: The southern jetties traps sediments transported here by shore-side current. For this reason, this sector acts as a sediment reservoir. Coastal dynamics: Stable / weak acreage
Land use
- History of area use
Corbu - Corbu villages dates back to the first Iron Age - 13th century- middle of the 4th century BC, close to the water spring. The practices were then agriculture, animal husbandry, fishing, crafts, commerce, but also the exchange of goods between the local population and the Greek settlers.
Sacele - Situated about 12 km south of Histria fortress, the area of Sacele commune, was part of the territory of the fortress. Histria Fortress was founded at the end of the 7th century BC as a port on the shore of the current Sinoe lagoon - the former open sea.
- The current situation
On the administrative territory of Corbu commune and Sacele commune there are a number of uses of the area. Housing, with a population of 5450 inhabitants in Corbu, 2100 inhabitants of Sacele. The transport infrastructure includes: county roads (DJ 266), communal railways and railways. Other activities are: mining holdings for limestone extraction and consecrated aggregates, sport fishing, hen farm, harbor, grain farming (90% of the population involved in Sacele), tourism, industry, services, recreation, public space and water and energy supply services. Another important area is Chituc Grindul afferent to the protected natural area (belonging to the Danube Delta Biosphere Reserve), where birds of different species are found (289 protected species have been identified in Grind), low-water lakes partially covered with floating vegetation; flooded depression areas with fixed hydrophilic vegetation, represented by reed and rush communities; meadows on low coasts and less-favored coastal meadows.
Other important areas for loisir are Corbu Lake, Corbu Beach and Vadu Beach (virgin beaches). Recently, a Local Urban Plan has been developed and includes proposals for a new tourism development and private housing on the shore.
Green/blue infrastructure
- What are the major potential elements of a green/blue infrastructure network? Are these likely to change/disappear? Why is that?
- You find my background material on green infrastructure in our reading list
- add 1-2 graphical representations to the image gallery, you can add more if you like
In the studied territory there are areas that have potential for developing a green-blue infrastructure such as healthy ecosystems and naturally valuable areas outside protected areas such as floodplains, wetlands, coastal areas, natural forests (Vadu Forest) which can act as ecological corridors or animal shelters. Present in site are Chituc Grind and the Ornithological Retreat Corbu - Nuntasi – Histria areas, part of the Danube Delta Biosphere Reserve ( recognized as a wetland of international importance since 1990), where bird species of special importance to this area are encountered, a very large number of birds are protected species and is also the only place where the Jackal can be found. The site is a major wintering and passage site for numerous bird species, such as Branta ruficolli.
In the area, measures are being taken regarding the ecological reconstruction of degraded surfaces, the reduction of industrial activities (Raw Metals Factory from Vadu for Siliciu). The wind farms are presented in this area, and for stimulate the developement of new farms, Agency for Payments and Intervention for Agriculture has provided support to farmers by offering subsidies for: - Arable land important for red-breasted goose feeding areas, - Important meadows for birds, - Maintaining organic farming practices, - Etc.
Mayors have agreed that measures need to be taken, such as: • Mounting of RBDD boundary alert and signaling panels, as well as panels with information on access conditions in RBDD and beach activities; • Establishment of common parking spaces and arrangement of parking areas for motor vehicles, location of barriers so that activities in the beach area are made terrestrial; • Daily hygiene of beaches by the mentioned municipalities; • Continuous monitoring by ARBDD commissioners of beach areas including entry / exit paths.
The area is part of the project "Dobrogea Nord - Wild Earth between the waters" which aims at sustainable development of fisheries areas.
Actors and stakeholders
- Who is driving changes in this landscape? Who is affected by those changes?
- Draw a stakeholder and/or power map: Who is affected highly but with low power? Who has high power but is not affected?
The actors and stakeholders from this area are represented by: 1. Local, regional authorities - administer the area with administrative measures;
2. “Romanian Waters” National - deal with the monitoring of the lakes in the area, the coastal zone afferent to the Black Sea and the defense against floods;
3. Non-governmental organizations, NGO:
- Mare Nostrum, dolphin monitoring, placement of information panels, etc.;
- WWF, is working in the framework of the regional Danube-Carpathian Programme;
- Romanian Ornithological Society (SOR) carries out activities for the protection of birds and nature;
- Various NGOs dealing with saving Chituc Grind.
4. Administration of the Danube Delta Biosphere Reserve (ARBDD) deals with the management of the natural heritage of the public domain of national interest of the Reserve, as well as for the restoration and protection of the physico-geographic units on the territory of RBDD;
5. Army force, there is a military unit in the area;
6. The economic agent
- Restaurants;
- Accommodation;
- The Carslyle Group which now owns the Black Sea Oil&Gas company are planning to build the gas pipeline with the national state-owned Transgaz company (in which Eurodeputate Theodor Stolojan owns over 5000 shares valued at about 230.000 euros). The gas transportation pipeline will start construction from the pickup point (from the Black Sea), which is 2000m from Vadu town through to the tranzit 1 pipeline which is in the area of the town Gradina. More than half of the lenght of this pipeline will pas through the communes Corbu and Sacele.
7. Research Institute and Universities;
8. Historical - there are archaeological sites in the area;
9. Tourists - practice tourism in nature;
10. Animal breeders, fishermen and farmers.
