at the Marker
Wadden with a
focus on

within the
context of
alteration of

interplay of
biological,

is studied and
there is a

spring holiday
in Ohrid, part
of Yugoslavia
at the time.
There was a
weekly flight
from Amsterdam
bringing
mostly Dutch
tourists to
this beautiful
old town
bordering the
large, very
deep lake with
the same name.
We stayed in a
small, very
pleasant hotel
just south of
the town,
bordering the
lake. The
atmosphere was
that guests
could bring
their own wine
that would
then be kept
under your
name and
served with
meals. It was
a lively bunch
of Dutch
tourists
staying there,
some of them
interested in
nature, others
in swimming
and
sunbathing,
others in the
beautiful
Macedonian
churches and
their medieval

The town and
the lake were
so famous in

A. den
Doolaard loved
this area and
had pictured a
number of his
novels here,
the most
well-known
example was
“De Bruiloft
der Zeven
Zigeuners”. It
was very
pleasant to be
at the
lakeshore just
outside the
hotel and take
in the
spectacular
scenery: the
lake with
crystal-clear
water, across
on the other
side the
steep, black
mountains of
Albania, a
country that
was a complete
mystery at the
time where
only a few
lights were
visible in the
evenings. And
then the town
of Ohrid to
the right on
the shore,
with some
beautiful
churches in
the skyline.
Great to go
for a regular
swim, to read
the novel,
which made you
curious to
visit the
various
monasteries at
different
locations on
the lakeshore.
We hitchhiked
along the road
to the south
to the
cloister Sveti
Naum and got a
ride from a
captain in the
Yugoslav army.
We had sort of
a conversation
in German,
where he
talked about
the tense
situation with
Albania and
Greece at the
3-country
border very
near Sveti
Naum. He
dropped us
there and
warned us not
to walk in a
more southerly
direction,
where the
Albanian army
would be in a
status of
alert. We
enjoyed seeing
the monastery
and its
surroundings.
We did read
about the very
special
characteristics
of Lake Ohrid:
it is the
deepest lake
of Europe and
has had a
history of a
million years
without large
disturbances,
enabling a
long,
continuous
evolution. The
high age and
relatively
isolated
location have
resulted in
the largest
number of
endemic
species in a
freshwater
body in
Europe. Among
them are
several fish
species, one
of which was a
salmonid
appearing
several times
on our plate
in the hotel.<br>
<br>
About a year
ago, I was
approached by
a Spanish
member of the
Society of
Wetland
Scientists
(SWS) who had
read an
alarming
article in “El
Pais” about a
plan to
destroy the
very last
wetland
bordering Lake
Ohrid. It
seemed
appropriate
that we would
express our
concern from
the part of
SWS. I was
brought into
contact with
the OhridSOS
group, very
active people
who are trying
to stop major
threats to
Lake Ohrid and
its immediate
environment.
Members of
that group
have briefed
me about the
situation.
There are
quite some
long-term
issues
threatening
the integrity
of the lake
ecosystem but
there was also
an immediate
threat:
Studenchiste
Wetland, the
last wetland
on the shores
of the lake,
was planned to
be drained and
turned into a
mass tourism
resort. There
is also a plan
for a large
marina just
where the
wetland
borders the
lake. I have
discussed the
issue with the
SWS leadership
and we have
come into
action:
earlier this
year we have
written
letters to
express our
major concern
to the Mayor
of Ohrid, the
Macedonian
minister of
the
environment
and several
other
authorities in
the region. At
the same time
we have
encouraged
members of the
OhridSOS group
to write a
scientific
article about
the current
status of the
Studenchiste
Wetland, which
has
materialized
in a
contribution
to the journal
Wetland
Science and
Practice (<a href="http://wetland-ecology.us10.list-manage.com/track/click?u=c1d34904b3bdb93914145a6e2&id=3dfc801e0d&e=95cfb5cbe5" style="word-wrap:break-word;color:rgb(109,198,221);font-weight:normal;text-decoration:underline" target="_blank">Apostolova et al. 2016</a>). We also
invited two
members of the
group to
attend the SWS
Europe meeting
in Potsdam in
May, where Dr.
Apostolova
presented a
highlight
about the
wetland and
the lake.
Although there
were no
answers to our
letters to the
authorities,
the attendance
of the <a href="http://wetland-ecology.us10.list-manage.com/track/click?u=c1d34904b3bdb93914145a6e2&id=76427d84d0&e=95cfb5cbe5" style="word-wrap:break-word;color:rgb(109,198,221);font-weight:normal;text-decoration:underline" target="_blank">OhridSOS</a> members in Potsdam led
to a news
article in the
major
Macedonian
national
newspaper.<br>
There are
further
initiatives
which might
hopefully lead
to a better
status of
protection of
the lake and
the wetland.
It is
investigated
whether Lake
Ohrid and
Studenchiste
can be
nominated for
a site of
International
importance
under the
Ramsar
convention.
There is
interest from
the side of
Albania to
strengthen the
UNESCO World
heritage
status of the
lake jointly
with
Macedonia.
Studenchiste
is the last
wetland
remaining.
Some features
of its
structure and
functioning
are known but
more work is
needed. For
the far
future, it is
quite probable
that there
will be the
potential to
restore part
of the
wetlands on
the lakeshore
and the lake’s
catchment that
have already
been lost. In
order to be
able to do
that properly,
it is of
utmost
importance
that
Studenchiste
remains in
place as a
model from
where
scientific
information
can be
gathered to
restore other
wetlands in a
proper way. It
is my hope
that OhridSOS
will be
successful in
the end. Then
finally, if
you are
looking for a
magnificent
jewel for a
wonderful
ecotouristic
holiday, I can
recommend
Ohrid. I will
definitely
take another
look there
soon.<br>
