GENETIC ZONE SHARR MOUNTAINS (KOSOVO)
Abstract
The purpose of this project course is a comprehensive environmental treatment of the Sharr Mountain area. In this context, has beco me a description of the extent of the area, geographic position, morphology of the terrain , hydro graphic and climate, geological- tectonic construction, biodiversity, natural heritage and genetic zone Mountains National Park-Sharr. Sharr Mountains occupy an area of 580 km 2, and have split into three sub-districts: Lumbardhi of Prizren, it Ko rishe-Mushtisht and Lepenci. The criteria for these sub- districts is taking water-sharing and climate. Also, in this paper we tried to treat natural resources, and opportunities they present for economic and social development of the inhabitants of this territory. Sharr Mountains area has great potential for tourism development, whether it summer or winter, if sufficient capacity rise hotels, spor ts centers, rehabilitation etc. This, the fact that there are great natural potential for ecological food products (bio-products), medicinal plants etc., Owing to soil, water, clean air, a favorable climate, which makes one of the most special throughout the territory of Kosovo. For the aspect of this mineral rich area is polimetallyc minera ls: iron, chromium, copper, zinc, silver etc. The area is rich with springs, such as sweet, as well as mineral water. Sources of mineral waters are known: the Sour Spring Gaçkë, Hani Elezit, Bajnicë, Vraniq, Buzhala etc. A feature of th is area are fluvio-glacial lakes that are in altitude over 2000m. For more complete coverage of the area that was taken for treatment, is also working on the graphics: maps of road connectio ns, morphological maps, weather maps, it geological zoning map of genetic maps hypsom etric. Also, images are presented with pictures to illustrate better the area that we handle. Sharr Mountains, seen from the aspect of bio-diversity pose the most interesting and comprehensive area throughout the territory of Kosovo. They incorporate in its elf a world of vibrant, diverse and complex simultaneously represent a huge potential, and less used for economy.
