XXS House
Partial view, showing entry and skylights; eXtra-eXtra-Small House is located in a specific part of the centre of Ljubljana. The neighbourhood called Krakovo has the character of an historical village, which in the Middle Ages supplied the nearby monastery with fresh food and is today a highly protected historical area. The basic dimensions of the new house were already defined by law according to the volume of the pre-existing 100 year old housing. The task was to integrate all residential functions in an extra small volume to suit the needs of a couple living in their new urban holiday-home. Since the house faces north, it was a challenge to bring the direct and indirect sunlight to the living spaces in the ground floor. The heritage protection rules allow light shafts on the roofs, but in this case we also turned them 90 degrees. A huge wall size slide window opens up the space to the intimate atrium and allows for indirect lighting. The concept of raw materials stretches from exterior to interior - using fibre cement panels in their primer mode for the roof and yard façade and 'béton brutNULL, terrazzo, plywood, iron, felt for the indoor. The total area of 43 sq m ultimately names the house. Source: dekleva gregoric arhitekti [firm website]; http://www.dekleva-gregoric.com/ (accessed 7/18/2010
Regeneration success of Dinaric fir-beech forests with and without ungulate browsing protection.
Diplomsko delo je bilo usmerjeno v preučevanje uspešnosti pomlajevanja površin, ki so bile od leta 2014 naprej prizadete s strani naravnih ujm večjega obsega. Mladje smo popisali na 20 ploskvah velikosti 2 × 2 m, mladje jelke pa v radijih 20 m okoli ploskve. Preučevali smo pomlajevanje na površinah brez ukrepov zaščite in obnove, površinah s skupinsko zaščito, zaščito s sredstvom TRICO in v rezervatu, kjer se gospodarjenje ne izvaja. Poleg štetja mladja in uvrščanja v višinske razrede ter določanja poškodovanosti smo zabeležili tudi ekološke razmere na ploskvah. Ugotovljeno je bilo, da so največje gostote mladja na površinah brez ukrepanja (225182 osebkov/ha), sledijo površine z zaščito TRICO (98017 osebkov/ha), tem sledi rezervat (83733 osebkov/ha) najmanjše gostote pa so bile v ograji (73733 osebkov/ha). Ugotovitve nakazujejo, da je skupna poškodovanost mladja po tretmajih značilno različna, če upoštevamo poškodovanost še po drevesnih vrstah značilnih razlik v poškodovanosti za smreko in bukev ni, medtem ko je poškodovanost jelke po tretmajih značilno različna. V vseh primerih je poškodovanost mladja največja v ograji. Ugotovljena situacija uspešnosti izvedenih ukrepov ne potrjuje. Nakazuje, da je uspešnost pomlajevanja v našem primeru odvisna predvsem od rastiščnih razmer, prehodnosti terena za divjad ter vzdrževanja postavljene ograje. Končne ugotovitve pod vprašaj postavljajo smiselnost vlaganja sredstev v drage ukrepe, kot so skupinska zaščita in umetna obnova, ob premočnem delovanju zaviralnih dejavnikov.The aim of the thesis was to investigate the regeneration performance on areas that have been affected by large-scale natural disturbances since 2014. Regeneration was inventoried in 20 plots of 2 × 2 m and silver fir regeneration in a radius of 20 m around the plot. The regeneration was examined in areas without protection and afforestation measures, in areas with group protection, TRICO protection and in the forest reserve. In addition to counting the young trees and classifying them into height classes and identifying damage, the ecological conditions on the plots were also recorded. It was found that the highest densities of regeneration were in the areas without measures (225182 individuals/ha), followed by the areas with TRICO protection (98017 individuals/ha), in forest reserve (83733 individuals/ha) and the lowest densities were found in the fence (73733 individuals/ha). The results indicate that the total damage to young trees varies considerably depending on the treatment. However, looking at the damage by tree species, there are no significant differences for spruce and beech, while the damage to silver fir varies considerably depending on the treatment. In all cases, the damage to young trees is greatest inside the fence. The observed situation does not confirm the success of the protection measures implemented. It indicates that the success of the regeneration in our case depends mainly on the growing conditions, the accessibility of the site for game and the maintenance of the fence. The final results raise the question of whether it makes sense to invest resources in expensive measures such as group protection and artificial regeneration if the inhibiting factors are too strong

Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
We conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods
