QLA-ი სამეცნიერო და საგანმანათლებლო კონკურსია, რომელიც ყოველ სამ წელიწადში ერთხელ იმართება, როგორც ადგილობრივ, ისე საერთაშორისო დონეზე. მისი მიზანია კარიერების ეკოლოგიური ღირებულების შესახებ ცნობიერების ამაღლება და მისი შემდგომი გაუმჯობესებისთვის ინოვაციური, ახალი გზების ძიება. ამჟამად, მთელი მსოფლიოს მასშტაბით ჩვენს კარიერებზე ბიომრავალფეროვნების ხელმშემწყობი სხვადასხვა პროექტი მიმდინარეობს. 2022 წელს საერთაშორისო ფულადი ჯილდო 30000 ევროს აღწევს.

Heidelberg Materials and more than 100 guests celebrated the seven winning teams of the fifth edition of the Quarry Life Award in Brussels. Building on the award, Heidelberg Materials develops best practices for quarry management which are then applied on a global scale, amongst others supporting the company’s contribution to the EU restoration agenda.

Heidelberg Materials is one of the world's largest integrated manufacturers of building materials and solutions with leading market positions in cement, aggregates, and ready-mixed concrete. In more than 600 active quarries worldwide Heidelberg Materials and its subsidiaries are committed to protecting and enhancing nature during and after extraction and promoting a high diversity of local flora and fauna. The company established the Quarry Life Award in 2012.
The dynamic qualities of riparian systems challenge traditional conceptions of restoration. Because the baseline condition of our site is constant change, restoration is a process of amplifying geomorphological diversity rather than attempting to return the river to a specific state. Our design intent is to guide disturbance from flooding and mining interventions to increase the diversity of habitat zones within the extraction zone. The next steps of our research beyond this project will...

The project approaches the design of landscape through two lenses: geomorphological diversity and interpretation of biodiversity by visitors to the site. The protocol for iterating public landscape that this project proposes creates a landscape experience in which geomorphological diversity is organized and perceived along every pedestrian path. Landscape architects use compositional rules of landscape photography and painting to give meaning and order to this perceived landscape.

We analyzed the landscape patterns of spoil pile fields and began to build digital modeling tools to rapidly visualize possible berm configurations. The tool simultaneously estimates the scale of resources necessary to construct each design -- in this case in cubic meters and truckloads. Animations demonstrating the tools can be found here: https://bit.ly/3Ug9IPi

After speaking with Dr. Řehounková, the role of early successional sites became more important to our project. This blog post investigates the biodiversity of early-successional sites, which can be bolstered by guiding the disturbance caused by mining and flooding on the site. Sub-zones of the overall site that are mined or flooded every two or three years can contribute to the geodiversity and biodiversity of the site significantly.
