Bündel-Antrag Ohrid-See: Evolutionary, geological, and environmental history of Lake Ohrid (EGEL)

奥赫里德湖是一个大湖(360平方公里)和深湖(289米)，是马其顿共和国和阿尔巴尼亚之间共有的。对该湖的生物和生物地理研究表明，该湖具有显著的地方性，并表明奥赫里德湖起源于上新世，使其成为欧洲最古老的湖泊。高年龄和高度的地方性使奥赫里德湖成为研究古代湖泊地质和生物演化联系的一级遗址。由于其作为避难所和传播中心的重要性，该湖于1979年被联合国教科文组织宣布为世界遗产，并于1993年被列为国际大陆科学钻探计划(ICDP)的目标地点。然而，1990年代中期巴尔干的政治局势阻碍了进一步将奥赫里德湖确定为潜在的红十字国际委员会所在地。该提案包寻求资金，用于探测重大演化事件的时间、调查起源、沉积学清单、新构造运动以及奥赫里德湖的古生态和古湖泊学，以便制定一份完整的ICDP深部钻探提案。在本涵盖提案的范围内，申请了用于协调单一提案、单一捆绑提倡者之间的科学交流和数据管理的资金。

Lake Ohrid is a large (360 km2) and deep (289 m) lake of tectonic origin and is shared between the Republics of Macedonia and Albania. Biological and biogeographical studies of the lake revealed an outstanding degree of endemism and suggest a Pliocene origin of Lake Ohrid, making the lake the oldest one in Europe. The high age and the high degree of endemism make Lake Ohrid a first class site to investigate the link between geological and biological evolution in ancient lakes. Given its importance as refugium and spreading centre, the lake was declared a UNESCO world heritage site in 1979, and included as a target site of the International Continental Scientific Drilling Program (ICDP) already in 1993. The political situation in the Balkan in the mid 1990ies, however, hampered further establishment of Lake Ohrid as potential ICDP site. This proposal bundle seeks funds for the detection of the timing of major evolutionary events, the investigation of the origin, the sedimentological inventory, neotectonic movements, and the paleoecology and paleolimnology of Lake Ohrid in order to develop a full ICDP proposal for deep drilling. Within the scope of this cover proposal funds for the coordination of the single proposals, for scientific exchange between the single bundle proponents, and for the data management are applied for.
