The second-longest European river after the Volga, the Danube is
one of the world's most important rivers in terms of its
geographical and historical significance. In recent history, it has
served as a major international waterway and numerous cities,
including four capitals, have been founded on its banks. The
2826km-long Danube has a watershed measuring 801,093 km2 that is
now shared between 19 countries, from its source in the Black
Forest to the Black Sea, into which it pumps an average of 827 km3
of water a year. This book describes and explains key landscape
values interactions (geographical, cultural and natural heritage).
It also identifies the threats and various types of human impact
affecting this system in all the countries of the Danube River
Basin, based on the investigations and perspectives of a team of
experienced naturalists, and in the context of the early 21st
century, in which the human-nature relationship is still far from
balanced. These studies demonstrate how biodiversity, conservation
and ecological studies can help us successfully promote mutual
cooperation and combine our efforts to address problems as a
responsible continent.
