Abstract The presence of permafrost in Poland north the line indicating maximum ice extent Vistulian (Weichselian) glaciation after retreat land-ice cap has been a subject debate for long time. Investigations an area at Pomeranian phase prove that existed, indeed, retreat. This conclusion is drawn on basis morphological data (the oriented kettle holes), sedimentological nature infilling holes) and pedological (permafrost-affected horizons soil profiles). It appears mostly developed ice-free...

Abstract This main aim of this study is the examination and discussion a conceptual theoretical model for Poland’s areas strategic intervention. Following review current documents at national regional levels, it possible to propose two basic categories intervention: 1) growth (territories with natural or socioeconomic properties particularly favourable development); 2)problem unfavourable features and/or processes). Among problem distinguish three types: social, economic natural, albeit...

This article looks at certain socioeconomic consequences of extreme hydrometeorological phenomena in the Polish Lowland, e.g.fl oods, droughts, hurricanes, heat and cold waves that have all become more intense Poland over recent years.The particular focus is on impact high temperature severe events socio-medical parameters such as mortality.The analysis especially concerned with increased daily numbers deaths 3 large urban centers located northeast Poland.

This study seeks to show – by reference the example of Poland's capital city important role played green infrastructure in a city's spatial structure, as well functions served an element urban space exerting influence on people's quality life. The article describes structure characterising Warsaw's infrastructure, its different component parts, and connections with undeveloped areas surrounding city. Attention is paid shares that biologically active account for Districts making up Warsaw....

Celem artykułu jest określenie płaszczyzn problemowo-przedmiotowych dotyczących ujmowania perspektywy prawnej w dyscyplinie geografia społeczno-ekonomiczna i gospodarka przestrzenna. Dla potrzeb realizacji tego celu najpierw wskazano ogólne relacje występujące między naukami geograficznymi prawnymi. Następnie wyodrębniono przedstawiono kluczowe nurty teoretyczne, które ułatwiają doprecyzowanie roli wymiaru prawnego geografii społeczno-ekonomicznej gospodarce przestrzennej, akcentując...

They show that achievements Polish geographers ecologists identifying, analysing assessing landscapes represents common scientific tradition central part Europe, considered one most comprehensively...

The studies aimed to reconstruct major phases of litho-morpho-pedogenic processes and past environmental changes in the Baltic coastal zone near Poddąbie (54°37,070′ N, 16°57,897′ E) based on physical, chemical, pollen, fossil Cladocera analysis polycyclic pedocomplex. pedocomplex under study included seven soils developed from Early Holocene until modern times various materials. were sampled analyzed using standard procedures soil science determine their physical chemical properties. Pollen...

Agriculture is a sector of the national economy strongly influenced by climatic conditions.A majority jobs in agriculture are still performed outdoors, under various weather conditions.Several meteorological situations can lead to severe disturbances organism agricultural workers, with high temperature, intensive insolation and elevated air humidity proving especially dangerous, as such conditions overheating dehydration body.The work presented here compares biothermal Poland Bulgaria from...

The influence of car transport on the sanitary state soils is subject numerous investigations, carried out in various regions world, including Poland. purpose study here presented was to determine content heavy metals (Ni, Pb, Cu, Zn, Cd, and Cr) areas situated along roads, characterised by different intensities traffic, throughput capacities smoothness traffic flow, as well road qualities. Investigations have been Poland, vicinity national expressways, motorways. samples were collected...

The sole factors of major importance to Bulgaria’s agrarian output are temperature, and water probability. Between these two it is the component relating soil moisture that proves more limiting. Probabilities occurrence given temperatures estimated by reference summed total rainfall, but also in relation certain specific indicators. Heat conditions heat resources can be up continuity vegetation period or growing season, which limited for each type plant, with thresholds crossed over...
