POSSIBILITIES OF REVITALIZING OČURA QUARRY, CROATIA, WITH AUTOCHTHONOUS TREE AND SHRUB SPECIES
Until now, biological revitalisation of highly devastated areas such as quarries, depots and landfills in Croatia, was usually conducted with Austrian black pine (Pinus nigra Mill.). This research's basic aim was to determine the possibility of application of autochtonous tree and shrub species in quarry revitalisation. In the fall of 2007, test field for scientific needs was established for research of biological sanation of quarry Očura II with autochtonous tree and schrub species. On one terracce, layer of waste-rock from quarry was deposed to act as foundation. Trial was established in two repetitions which depend on the soil type (deposed agricultural or forest humus substrate (soil)). In every repetition seedlings from nursery and from surrounding forest stands were planted. Seven pedological profiles have been dug up and additional observations have been conducted with pedological sonde. Selection of plants for extraction was conducted in forest stands, on the top border area of quarry, which was planned for clearcut in the near future with the aim of sequent exploitation of quarry. For indentification of pioneer forest species which come by nature on Očura quarry locality, it was necessary to study and to determine vegetation, floristic composition of forest edges, as well as areas inside of quarry on which natural vegetation begun to appear. Selected species were: Flowering ash (Fraxinus ornus L.), Sycamore maple (Acer pseudoplatanus L.), Black poplar (Populus nigra L.), willows (Salix sp.), and European privet (Ligustrum vulgare L.). Selection of Ruscus aculeatus for this trial was based on preservation of individuall speciments of this endangered species in the vicinity of it's habitant which will be devastated by exploitation. Results of three years of monitoring of plants survival and growth, indicate that adequate species of autochtonous forest trees and shrubs have been selected for revitalisation of this quarry.
