Article considers the main aspects in sociological refl ection of cross-border processes, there are proposed its defi nitions. Substantiates the notion of "information service system of cross-border cooperation", examines the functions of empirical sociological knowledge for informational provision of modern cross- border phenomena management. Keywords: cross-border cooperation, empirical sociological research, sociological refl ection, information service. With the direct access to the European Union's border with Ukraine in Europe was real, objectively conditioned strategic interest in non-confl ict and the evolution of its Eastern neighbor as a whole and contact its border regions in particular. The problem is that Ukraine now is to use this interest in full. Undoubtedly, the EU enlargement to the East has created as many serious complications and uncomfortable events, fi rst in the communication space. The introduction of strict visa regime leads to diffi culties in communication of the people, particularly those with family ties as well as those who are united in national, cultural and religious identity. There are acute problems in economic activity, unemployment among disadvantaged populations of border regions. Criminal phenomena such as illegal migration and smuggling goods have not disappeared, they acquire new ones, often more subtle forms. 5 This requires adequate response by management subjects on both sides of the new Eastern border of the EU. Public authorities and local self-government bodies in order to solve the encountered problems are making efforts, which bring certain positive effect. However, it is surprising how little attention is paid to maintaining feedback with main subjects of transborder processes – inhabitants of border areas, with those who have been fi rst of all affected by geopolitical changes and above all – to studying their opinions, moods, assessments. Lack of “alternative” to offi cial information brings about the sequence of interrelated problems. Management bodies often make specifi c decisions without full, balanced and reliable information, based on one-way bureaucratic assessments by one or another institution. As a result, these decisions prove to be not effective. In turn, non-effective decisions down the line do not solve problems, arising imperceptions, and rejection of those by population. More than that, it happens that they provoke new complications (one example is occasional confl ict situations at the border between border staff and citizens). Therefore, establishment of feedback, getting “alternative” information about border functioning is a most important condition of transborder cooperation optimization. It is possible to solve this main problem only with the help of special methods of opinion survey available in sociology. The purpose of this article is to analyze the problems of specifi c sociological refl ection of cross-border reality in Central - Eastern Europe and ascertain the place of sociological component in modern information system of cross-border cooperation The concept "sociological refl ection of transborder processes" means: a) analysis of the formation and development of the specifi c sociological knowledge about the phenomenon of "transborder" and b) research of techniques and methods used in empirical sociological knowledge of this social reality important phenomenon. In what state is actually sociological refl ection of cross-border processes? 6 First, consider the activities in this area of the European Union. Known that the study of public attitudes in this association has been authorized state structure, called the Eurobarometer. Eurobarometer (Eng. Eurobarometr) - International Project of regular opinion polls carried out under the auspices of the European Commission [1]. One of the main partners of Eurobarometer is a group Taylor Nelson Sofres (TNS) - the world leader in market research "in order" [2]. Analysis of the Eurobarometer published over four decades and especially in recent years (after the EU enlargement to the East) materials show that, unfortunately, none of them are special studies border issues, especially those devoted to cross-border processes at the new Eastern border of the European Union. Only one study, conducted in 2006 dedicated to the study of the effects of EU enlargement in the form of tangent and raised some

Currently, the interest in the study of long-term cyclical fluctuations in river runoff, as well as patterns of fluctuations of its underlying factor, has highly increased due to their use in long-term forecasts. Time series of annual water runoff for basins of Tisza, Dniester and Prut rivers were estimated with the use of mathematical tools, methodological framework of which is based on a statistical means of summarizing, systemi- sation of the input data, evaluation methods of time random sets of runoff characteristics, methods of analysis of the time-series variability and manifestation of their structure.

The methodological approaches concerning the river runoff mapping and the technological stages of map creation by applying the geographic information system (GIS) analytical functions are considered. The accuracy assessment of the calculation of the mean annual river runoff water based on the data from the hydrometric stations for the whole observation period was performed. The mapping reliability of the mean annual runoff and their territorial variability over the main basins in the Ukrainian Carpathians are analysed. Keywords: rivers of the Ukrainian Carpathians, analytical functions of GIS, spatial distribution, mean annual river runoff, water resources.

E-mail: [email protected]. Accepted 19 October, 2006 Carpathian complex prognostic poligon has being created for testing of new methods and equipment and their implementation into the practice of seismotectonic investigations in the Transcarpathians. The polygon consists of a network of regime geophysical stations (RGS). I analyzed seismicity of the Ukrainian sector of the Carpathians. It is determined by local earthquakes and strong subcrustal earthquakes of the Vrancea zone in Romania. In this paper, I estimate the most fundamental parameters describing earthquakes: seismic energy E and energy class K=log(E) in a time window of 40 years (1961-2001). Our results show that, the E 1/ 2 plot against time may be a good tool for understanding of a local earthquake activity, although the shape of the plot is strongly influenced by extreme events. Also, we have found a correlation between seismic moment M0 and energy class K of the local earthquakes for Transcarpathian region. Key words: seismicity, energy class, seismic energy, seismic moment, geodynamic polygon, catalogue INTRODUCTION The Carpathian Arc which stretches for about one and year, seismic stations register dozens of local half thousand kilometres is a fragment of the northern earthquakes with magnitude exceeding 2.5. However, the branch of the Alpine Mediterranean Belt in Eurasia strong earthquakes occur rarely.
