“…Special attention must be paid to this analogue interpretation means. Even though other better-developed and better-organized natural sites rely on modern digital devices (Stankov et al 2019) more than on interpretation panels, the respondents' opinions show the importance of the interpretation panels, and this finding cannot be ignored.…”

People have appreciated the beauty of natural landscapes, the result of the interplay of different natural processes, for at least three hundred years in Europe. Many have been inspired by this beauty to promote such places for visits by others. Some have understood the importance of individual places visited within the local or regional environmental system. This has led to definitions and the establishment of protected areas with special visitor rules and regulations. This article presents a case study of Sićevo Gorge Nature Park in Serbia and an opportunity to transform it into a geoheritage site, underpinned by developing its interpretation based on the results of a study using the analytical-hierarchy process (AHP) method.

Downscaling and modeling natural disturbances such as the extratropical storms are important for understanding and predicting the behavior of the air flow over complex forested areas, especially in high wind instances that cause damages. Therefore, the rationale of the research was that the windscape of a storm could be reconstructed based on the features of consequent forest windthrows. Main input data for the model were derived from data on forest damages (extension, orientation, and depth of windthrows) retrieved from combined UAV imagery, high-resolution imagery, and field survey, integrated with terrain, wind data at stations within the study area, land cover, overturning and breaking point conditions for tree species, and human interventions. Using a GIS environment, a critical wind speed index was calculated, as well as the main wind direction on each damaged stand, considering the factors that lead to windthrows. This model was then compared to a computational fluid dynamics wind model built with WindNinja app, using the conservation of mass and momentum solver, at the moment of the storm, and adjusted. Ultimately, maps and 3D models were presented to the main stakeholders in the area, namely, forest management, protected area operatives, and road and tourist infrastructures’ management in order to enhance the resilience strategies and environmental protection.

With the help of satellite data and numerical geographical information system (GIS) methods, the total capacity of dew volume on the entire territory of the Republic of Serbia was estimated. Multicriteria GIS analysis and satellite detections with the support of methods such as kriging and semi-kriging gave satisfactory results in the present research. After the download of satellite data, they were compared with meteorological data for precipitation, evaporation and air temperature. A very precise grid in 1 × 1 of longitude and latitude was created. The average estimated dew potential for the territory of Serbia is 20-40 mmÁyear −1 for the south of the country, 15 mmÁyear −1 for the north, 30-50 mmÁyear −1 for the central region and 20-30 mmÁyear −1 for the east. In most drought regions, it is < 10 mmÁyear −1 Ám −2 . Counties with the largest dew capacity (between 15,200 and 20,000 L) include Borski, Nišavski and Jablanički in the eastern part of the country, as well as Zlatiborski, Raški and Pe c in the western and southern parts, respectively. On the other hand, counties with the lowest dew capacity (2,000-3,000 L) encompass northern parts of Serbia (Sremski, Severno-Banatski, Srednje-Banatski, Južno-Banatski, Severno-Bački and Zapadno-Bački). The possibility for dew use is particularly strong during the spring. The estimated total capacity of the dew potential for Serbia is 1.5 × 10 7 L. By comparing the obtained data for Serbia, it is concluded that the amount of this type of water resource is not large, but enough for use in agricultural and other economic sectors.
