    LOCAL HYDROLOGICAL CENTERS NETWORK OPTIMIZING MODEL Dr Ion PASOI National Institute for Meteorology and Hydrology and water Management, Romania, Bucharest, sos. Bucuresti – Ploiesti no 97, postal code 71552, e – mail : [email protected] Abstract: In the case of the countries with advanced hydrographic and hydrometrical networks, it is necessarily to set up Local Hydrological Centers. These ones are created for the primary hydrometrical data processing up to the level of Annual Hydrometrical studies at hydrometrical stations and for current maintenance of the existing equipment within the hydrological network. To optimize the Local Hydrological Centers location HIDROLMA model is proposed, a model based on the travelling matrix, consisting in the travelling times between the hydrometrical stations and the Local Hydrological Centers and the stationing times at the hydrometrical stations. Key word: Local Hydrological Centers, travelling matrix, travelling times, stationing times. BESTMŐGLICHKEITS MODEL DER LOKALEN HYDROLOGISCHEN ZENTRUM-NETZE Kurzfassung: Länder mit ausgebauter Wasser und Hydrometrische-Stellen Netze ist es noting Hydrologische lokal Zentren zu gründen Diese haben als Ziel die Ubersicht dass die primär hydrimetrische Daten bis zum Niveau der jährlichen hydrometrischen Studien von der Hydrometrischen Stellen überarbeiten werden, und die Instand-haltung der instrustung des Hydrologischen Netzes. Um die allerbest Plätze für die Hydrologische lokal Zentrum zu finden schlagen wir das Modell HIDROLMA vor das auf der Matrize der Hingänge nuht, die aus den Zeitdauren der Hingänge zwischen den Hydrometrischen Stellen und den Hydrologischen lokal Zentrum, so wie auch den Zeinträumen der Aufhälte bei den Hydrometrische Stellen besteht.

  • Dorna Basin - Major Objective for Development of Tourism and Agrotourism in the North of Moldova
    Analele Universităţii din Oradea, Fascicula: Ecotoxicologie, Zootehnie şi Tehnologii de Industrie Alimntară, Vol. XIV B, 2015 DORNA BASIN - MAJOR OBJECTIVE FOR DEVELOPMENT OF TOURISM AND AGROTOURISM IN THE NORTH OF MOLDOVA Vîntu Cătălin-Răzvan*, Chiran Aurel*, Gîndu Elena*, Jităreanu Andy-Felix* *University of Agricultural Sciences and Veterinary Medicine of Iaşi, 3 Mihail Sadoveanu Alley, 700490 Iaşi, Romania, e-mail: [email protected] PART I Abstract Agrotourism is specific for natural areas, connecting with rural touristic areas and, at the same time, a solution to highlight the potential of rural households by exploiting the possibilities of accommodation for receiving guests and providing services for short periods for relaxation, rest and recreational activities, therapeutic cures, but also for business, studies and arts and crafts documentation, meeting a particular hobby, etc., all of these achieved by carrying out activities within or outside rural households (Miron Mihaela, 1996; Bran Florina et al., 1996; Chiran A. et al., 2008; Czosz I., 1996; Ghereș Marilena, 2003; Rey R., 1999; Ungureanu D., 2005). If we analyze agrotourism, we find that it is a particular form of tourism, more comprehensive, which includes both tourism activities themselves, but also economic activities such as agriculture (production, processing and marketing of finished products) made in rural households. For tourism and agrotourism development in the north of Moldova, Dorna basin was taken in study, as a representative place in this area. The agrotourism area, which combines all the local attractions, stirs interest in supporting village infrastructure improvement, strengthen the spiritual life of the Romanian village, creating public service homogenization promoter, at least in urban areas.

  • 181 Valorization of Therapeutic Factors in the Upper Basin of Moldavian Bistrita River
    LUCRĂRILE SEMINARULUI GEOGRAFIC “DIMITRIE CANTEMIR” NR. 37, 2014 VALORIZATION OF THERAPEUTIC FACTORS IN THE UPPER BASIN OF MOLDAVIAN BISTRITA RIVER Ionel Muntele1, Alexandrina Cruceanu2 Abstract: The article refers to the identification and quantification of the different ways of using the natural and anthropogenic factors of therapeutic treatment in the upper basin of the Moldavian Bistrita river (therapeutic climatic factors, minerals, hydrominerals, pedological, pits, aerosols, chrenotherapy, health infrastructure, health services, the social, political, economic and cultural context) in the prevention and treatment of certain chronic and infectious medical affections. The medical use of balneary and climatic resources is increasing in all European countries, which is mainly determined by the body`s needs (especially in urban areas), associated with the increase of wear character disease (cardiovascular, metabolic, rheumatic, degenerative, respiratory disease etc.) or the so called “material comfort” disease, often also requiring natural remedies of prevention, control and treatment. Keywords: natural and anthropogenic therapeutic factors, pits, mud therapy, medical practices and procedures, social and political factors, individual factors of therapeutic treatment. 1. Introduction The upper basin of the Moldavian Bistrita river includes, from the administrative point of view, a municipality (Vatra Dornei) and nine villages (Carlibaba, Ciocanesti, Iacobeni, Poiana Stampei, Cosna, Dorna Candrenilor, Saru Dornei, Panaci and Dorna Arini),

To minimize the risk of flooding, especially in areas that are not yet inhabited, it is, therefore, necessary to urgently draw up risk maps. In the present study, flood maps were drawn up for different probabilities and with a high degree of accuracy with the help of the ISIS (Integrated Spectrographic Innovative Software) modeling program, which was used as a system for modeling specialized issues of flood risk management. The hydraulic modeling uses the ISIS software products to control the hydrodynamics. To create the model with a reduced degree of error, topographical measurements were effectuated in the sectors, most frequently affected by floods. In the year 2015, the topographical surface was scanned using the LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) system. Keywords: hydraulic modelling, flood risk map, ISIS LiDAR, Bistrita catchment.

  • Ways of Valorization of the Touristic Potential in Tara Dornelor
    SEA - Practical Application of Science Volume III, Issue 1 (7) / 2015 Alexandrina D. CRUCEANU ”Alexandru Ioan Cuza” University of Iasi, Faculty of Geography-Geology Ionel MUNTELE ”Alexandru Ioan Cuza” University of Iasi, Faculty of Geography-Geology Romanian Academy, Iasi Branch Mihaela-Daniela CAZACU ”Alexandru Ioan Cuza” University of Iasi, Faculty of Geography-Geology WAYS OF VALORIZATION OF Case study THE TOURISTIC POTENTIAL IN TARA DORNELOR Keywords Natural touristic potential Anthropic touristic potential Valorization JEL Classification I15 Abstract The natural and anthropic potential of a geographical space/territory/area can sometimes represent degrees of intensity,essential condition for an area’s economic development,reason for which its valorization is often imposed as a sine-qua-non condition for maintaining acquired status.Vatra Dornei town and the rural areas in its proximity are generically known as Tara Dornelor,especially due to the demographic,socio- economic,cultural structures relatively similar,which have evoluated,in the last centuries,in different contexts and political territories (Moldova,Bucovina,Transilvania). The present study proposes,on one hand, the identification,as possible,the inventory of the existent touristic potential in this geographical area and on the other hand the analysis of the main forms of tourism practiced,as well as their present valorization possibilities in the context of a necessary and continuous adaptation to the society’s evolution in general and of touristic practices in particular.
