In fact, water resources in small, adjacent catchments may S L O V A K I A substantially differ, as was proved for zero-order catchments feeding springs in the 0 10 km upper part of the Połonina Wetlińska Massif (the Bieszczady Mountains, Eastern stream gauge (national monitoring) Carpathians, Płaczkowska et al. 2018, Mostowik et al. 2021). Therefore, this study Fig. 1.

The daily ow data was used to describe hydrological conditions in selected catchments, as well as to separate baseow with Eckhardt's digital lter based on parameters obtained as proposed by Collischonn and Fan (2013). Additionally, baseow in 19 small catchments across the Połonina Wetlińska Massif was measured during six campaigns in 2018 and 2019, when river ow was low and might have been identied as the effect of groundwater recharge only. Characteristics of 19 studied small catchments including their lithology, land use, slope, area, length, width, perimeter, mean, minimum and maximum elevation, elongation ratio and drainage density were dened in this study. In the next step the Spearman's rank correlation coefcient between baseow in the studied catchments and the catchment characteristics was calculated. Collishonn W., Fan F.M., 2013.

  • Siliceous Raw Material from Bieszczady Mountains: Sources and Use
    Archaeologia Polona, vol. 54: 2016, 21 – 31 PL ISSN 0066 - 5924 Siliceous raw material from Bieszczady Mountains: Sources and use Andrzej Pelisiaka Lithic chipped materials discovered in the course of research in the Polish High Bieszczady Mts. carried out from 2012 are dated to the Late Neolithic and the Early Bronze Age. They represent several raw material groups: menilite hornstones, siliceous sandstones, siliceous marl, and the so- called Bircza flint. Sources of these rocks are located either in the Bieszczady Mts. or in the nearby vicinity. Individual raw material groups are not homogenous; the same kind of rock can have dif- ferent physical characteristics, depending on specific sources. Consequently, their effectiveness as tool production raw material is uneven. All raw materials were utilized mainly locally. KEY-WORDS: siliceous raw material, Carpathians, Bieszczady Mountains, Late Neolithic, Bronze Age INTRODUCTION Archaeological research in the Polish High Bieszczady Mountains was initiated in 20121, inspired by analyses of pollen diagrams indicating palynological traces of human activi- ties in this region from about 3200/3000 BC (Ralska-Jasiewiczowa 1980). These observa- tions did not correspond with prehistoric evidences which had been until then totally unknown (Pelisiak 2013a, 2013b, 2014b; Parczewski et al., 2013). Since 2012 research has been focused on palynological sites in Smerek and Wołosate, Bieszczady district and in the vicinity of Wetlina, Lesko district involving surface survey and analyses of LIDAR images which

  • Prehistoric Exploitation of Limnosilicites in Northern Hungary: Problems and Perspectives Zsolt Mester and Norbert Faragó
    Archaeologia Polona, vol. 54: 2016, 1 – 5 PL ISSN 0066 - 5924 Editorial The first scientific investigations of the sources of flint in Poland were undertaken by archaeologist Stefan Krukowski and geologist Jan Samsonowicz in the early 20th century. Krukowski used archaeological materials to identify the macroscopic char- acteristics of ‘chocolate’ flints, described their differences, and showed the potential location of the deposits (Krukowski 1920: 189–195; Budziszewski 2008: 33). In the search for deposits of flint, their outcrops, and prehistoric mines, Krukowski was accompanied by young geologist Jan Samsonowicz. The result of their cooperation was the discovery in 1921 of in situ deposits and surface accumulations of limestones containing fragments of flint and, in 1922, the identification of a prehistoric mine at Krzemionki Opatowskie (Krukowski 1923; Samsonowicz 1923; Bąbel 2014). This long tradition of studying siliceous rocks has continued at the Institute of Archaeology and Ethnology, Polish Academy of Science. In 1965 Zygmunt Krzak published the first characterization of gray white-spotted (świeciechów) flint (Krzak 1965) and five years later he described Turonian flint from Ożarów (Krzak 1970). In 1971 Romuald Schild devised a classification of ‘chocolate’ flint from the north-east margin of the Holy Cross (Świątokrzyskie) Mountains (Schild 1971, 1976) and Bogdan Balcer investigated a flint mine in Świeciechów, Kraśnik district, and the use of gray white-spotted (świeciechów) flint during the Neolithic (Balcer 1975, 1976). In 1980 Jacek Lech discussed the geology of Jurassic-Cracow flint and showed its relevance to archaeology (Lech 1980). Since that time Polish archeologists have carried out many investigations on different types of flint (e.g., Budziszewski and Michniak 1983/1989; Pawlikowski 1989; Budziszewski and Michinak eds 1995; Schild and Sulgostowska eds 1997; Matraszek and Sałaciński eds 2002; Gutowski 2004; Borkowski et al., 2008; Migaszewski et al., 2006, Krajcarz et al., 2014).

    / !"# 27 THE TRANSFORMATION OF THE NATURAL ENVIRONMENT OF THE POLISH AND UKRAINIAN BIESZCZADY MOUNTAINS DUE TO TOURISM AND OTHER FORMS OF HUMAN PRESSURE Agnieszka Œwigost Institute of Urban Development, Krakow, Poland Abstract The area of Bieszczady Mountains is the cross-border zone characterized by a great diversity in both policies and a level of economic development between the Polish and Ukrainian part of the region. Therefore, it exhibits a significant variation in the degree, form and character of anthropopres- sure. The main aim of the study is to compare the intensity of transformation of Polish and Ukrainian parts of Bieszczady Mountains and indicate the anthropogenic conditions existing in both countries. Four villages of Bieszczady were analysed – Solina and Wetlina in Poland and Sianki and Volosjanka in Ukraine. The study, conducted using the point scoring evaluation method, showed large variations in the degree of anthropopressure in different localities. The area that has the lowest level of human impact is Po³onina Wetliñska while the largest one occurs in Solina. Wetlina, Sianki and Volosjanka have a similar level of transformation. Research areas located in the Polish part of Bieszczady are exposed to environmental changes primarily related to the development of tourism. In Ukraine, the pressure is observable due to unregulated water and sewage systems, a large accumulation of possessions with a traditional heating and highly developed railway network. Keywords: anthropopressure; tourism; Polish Bieszczady Mountains; Ukrainian Bieszczady Mountains Introduction rently, research in the field of anthropopressure includes also Contemporary transformations of the natural environment the less visible transformation of the environment caused for are the consequences of not only natural alterations but also instance by tourism development.

  • Epidemiological Characterization of Mycobacterium Caprae Strains
    Orłowska et al. BMC Veterinary Research (2020) 16:362 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12917-020-02581-3 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Epidemiological characterization of Mycobacterium caprae strains isolated from wildlife in the Bieszczady Mountains, on the border of Southeast Poland Blanka Orłowska1*, Monika Krajewska-Wędzina2, Ewa Augustynowicz-Kopeć3, Monika Kozińska3, Sylwia Brzezińska3, Anna Zabost3, Anna Didkowska1, Mirosław Welz4, Stanisław Kaczor5, Piotr Żmuda6 and Krzysztof Anusz1 Abstract Background: The majority of animal tuberculosis (TB) cases reported in wildlife in Poland over the past 20 years have concerned the European bison inhabiting the Bieszczady Mountains in Southeast Poland: an area running along the border of Southeast Poland. As no TB cases have been reported in domestic animals in this region since 2005, any occurrence of TB in the free-living animals inhabiting this area might pose a real threat to local livestock and result in the loss of disease-free status. The aim of the study was to describe the occurrence of tuberculosis in the wildlife of the Bieszczady Mountains and determine the microbiological and molecular characteristics of any cultured strains. Lymph node samples were collected for analysis from 274 free-living animals, including European bison, red foxes, badgers, red deer, wild boar and roe deer between 2011 and 2017. Löwenstein–Jensen and Stonebrink media were used for culture. Molecular identification of strains was performed based on hsp65 sequence analysis, the GenoType®MTBC (Hain Lifescience, Germany) test, spoligotyping and MIRU-VNTR analysis. Results: Mycobacterium caprae was isolated from the lymph nodes of 21 out of 55 wild boar (38.2%; CI 95%: 26.5%, 51.4%) and one roe deer.

  • Challenges for the Conservation of Semi-Natural Grasslands in Mountainous National Parks – Case Studies from the Polish Carpathians
    Carpathian Journal of Earth and Environmental Sciences, February 2018, Vol. 13, No. 1, p. 187 – 198; DOI:10.26471/cjees/2018/013/017 CHALLENGES FOR THE CONSERVATION OF SEMI-NATURAL GRASSLANDS IN MOUNTAINOUS NATIONAL PARKS – CASE STUDIES FROM THE POLISH CARPATHIANS Natalia TOKARCZYK Institute of Geography and Spatial Management, Jagiellonian University, Gronostajowa 7, 30-387 Kraków, Poland, E-mail: [email protected] Abstract: Semi-natural grasslands are characteristic elements of mountain landscapes across the world. However, a significant decrease in their area has been observed in many places in Europe. This phenomenon leads to many negative consequences, which is why meadows and pastures are managed for conservation purposes in most European countries, especially in protected areas. The aim of this study is to identify the challenges for the management of semi-natural grasslands in the national parks of the Polish Carpathians with a special focus on the implementation of conservation measures. The study highlights also attitudes of local communities towards the conservation of semi-natural grasslands as well as motivations guiding the residents to support conservation activities. According to interviews conducted with parks' employees six key categories of challenges have been distinguished. They are associated with the land ownership structure, financing and implementation of conservation measures, planning and evaluation of applied treatments, and natural and social determinants. Only some of the challenges result exclusively from the mountainous conditions or refer directly to the effectiveness of the conservation measures. Most of the challenges are typical of those found in national parks throughout the world and are connected with legislative and financial issues.

Fabryczna 57, 36-060 Głogów Małopolski, Poland; [email protected] 2 The Regional Directorate of the State Forests in Krosno, ul. Bieszczadzka 2, 38-400 Krosno, Poland; [email protected] 3 Department of Forest Ecosystems Protection, University of Agriculture in Krakow, Al. 29 Listopada 46, 31-425 Krakow, Poland * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +48-1266-253-69 Abstract: The small-sized gametophytes and sporophytes of the green shield-moss Buxbaumia viridis (Moug.) Brid. make it difficult to study. However, in Europe, there has been increasing interest in this species in the past few years, mostly as a result of the implementation of the Natura 2000 network. In Poland, B. viridis has only been reported in isolated studies that have been limited in terms of area and the number of participating workers. One of the Polish regions where B. viridis was recently recorded is the Bieszczady Mountains, but there have been no large-scale surveys of that region to date. The objective of the current work was to describe the B. viridis population in the Bieszczady Mountains in terms of its spatial distribution and abundance, investigate its selected microhabitat preferences, and evaluate the conservation status of this moss species within the Natura 2000 site Bieszczady PLC180001. The studied region encompassed 93,490.44 ha, including 69,056.23 ha of managed forests and 24,434.21 ha of forests belonging to the Bieszczady National Park.

Wilk z watahy „ruska” zachodzącej na monitorowany obszar. Lutowiska 2018 Prace terenowe realizowano na obszarze 135 km2, obejmującym otulinę Bieszczadzkiego Parku Narodowego w gminie Cisna (intensywnie zabudowywane obszary dolinowe na linii miejscowości Wetlina – Cisna; Ryc.1). Opisywany obszar charakteryzuje występowanie wszystkich dużych drapieżników (wilk, niedźwiedź, ryś i żbik) – w strefach wysokich zagęszczeń zwierząt kopytnych (jeleń, sarna) – stanowiących ich naturalną bazę pokarmową. Charakter współwystępowania populacji drapieżników i ofiar na tym terenie związany jest z użytkowaniem terenów chronionych (Bieszczadzki Park Narodowy) oraz przyległych otuliny BdPN (obszar na którym realizowany był monitoring). Na terenie otuliny BdPN w gminie Cisna (na linii miejscowości Wetlina – Cisna) występuje szereg niekorzystnych zjawisk związanych z działalnością człowieka (intensywna zabudowa rekreacyjna, gospodarka leśna i łowiecka), które wpływają na funkcjonowanie populacji zwierząt terytorialnych pomiędzy terenem Parku Narodowego i otuliny w obrębie areałów osobniczych i grup rodzinnych zwierząt.

DOI: https://doi.org/10.31577/slovarch.2020.suppl.1.38 NEOLITHIC AND BRONZE AGE HUMAN ACTIVITY IN THE MOUNTAINS The Case of the High Bieszczady Mountains, Carpathians ANDRZEJ PELISIAK Inspiration for archaeological research in the High Bieszczady Mountains came from information about human activi­ ty recorded in pollen diagrams from surroundings of Tarnawa, Wołosate and Smerek. Archaeological investigations in the High Bieszczady Mountains began in 2012. Up to 2019 more than 70 sites dated to the Late Neolithic and Bronze Age were discovered in the highland zones of Połonina Wetlińska, Połonina Caryńska, Mała and Wielka Rawka, Wielki Dział and Bukowe Berdo massifs, between 1000 and 1300 m a. s. l. Most of these sites are located in a close context of fresh and salt water springs. The sites are represented by single finds of stone artefacts and small assemblages of them. They correspond with the pollen record of animals herding. These finds confirm transhumant pastoralism performed by Neolithic and Bronze Age (probably mainly Early Bronze Age) people in this area. Keywords: Poland, Carpathians, Neolithic, Bronze Age, mountain archaeology, lithic artefacts, transhumance. INTRODUCTION ARCHAEOLOGICAL FINDS Inspiration for archaeological research in the Till the end of 2019 there have been 72 archaeolo­ High Bieszczady Mountains came from information gical sites registered in the Polish High Bieszczady about human activity dated from ca. 3000/3200 BC, which can be dated to the Late Neolithic or the Early recorded in pollen diagrams from surroundings of Bronze Age.
