LONG-TERM CHANGES in the WATER TEMPERATURE of RIVERS in LATVIA Inese Latkovska1,2 # and Elga Apsîte1
PROCEEDINGS OF THE LATVIAN ACADEMY OF SCIENCES. Section B, Vol. 70 (2016), No. 2 (701), pp. 78–87. DOI: 10.1515/prolas-2016-0013 LONG-TERM CHANGES IN THE WATER TEMPERATURE OF RIVERS IN LATVIA Inese Latkovska1,2 # and Elga Apsîte1 1 Faculty of Geography and Earth Sciences, University of Latvia, Jelgavas iela 1, Rîga LV-1004, LATVIA, e-mail: [email protected] 2 Latvian Environment, Geology, and Meteorology Centre, Maskavas iela 165, Rîga LV-1019, LATVIA # Corresponding author Communicated by Mâris Kïaviòð The study describes the trends of monthly mean water temperature (from May to October) and the annual maximum water temperature of the rivers in Latvia during the time period from 1945 to 2000. The results demonstrated that the mean water temperatures during the monitoring period from May to October were higher in the largest rivers (from 13.6 oC to 16.1 oC) compared to those in the smallest rivers (from 11.5 oC to 15.7 oC). Similar patterns were seen for the maxi- mum water temperature: in large rivers from 22.9 oC to 25.7 oC, and in small rivers from 20.8 oC to 25.8 oC. Generally, lower water temperatures occurred in rivers with a high groundwater inflow rate, for example, in rivers of the Gauja basin, in particular, in the Amata River. Mann-Kendall test results demonstrated that during the monitoring period from May to October, mean water tem- peratures had a positive trend. However, the annual maximum temperature had a negative trend. Key words: water temperature, long-term changes, river, Latvia. -

In the years between the two World Wars the concept became more political in nature: after Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania obtained their independence in 1918 the region gradually became understood as the geographical entity made up of these three republics. Although the Baltic region is geographically fairly homogeneous, each of the newly restored republics possesses unique geographical and strategic features. -

Gradients of Latvian Magnetic Anomalies
Scientific Journal of Riga Technical University Sustainable Spatial Development 2011 __________________________________________________________________________________________________ Volume 2 Gradients of Latvian Magnetic Anomalies Vladimir Vertennikov, Riga Technical University Abstract. This article discusses one of the most important and vertical gradients. It is possible to determine those geophysical factors, which produces an impact on the gradients by calculations or measurements using special demographic processes and reflects the nature of variability in instruments – magnetic gradiometers. Instrumented gradient the anomalous magnetic field intensity in space. The article characterises the horizontal magnetic gradients, which vary measurements are predominantly utilised in local areas during within the wide range: from 10 to 2400 nT/km. It distinguishes prospecting and exploration for minerals. In regional magnetic scale and magnetic gradient areas. The article gives an investigations, to which concrete operations associated with ecodemographic evaluation of the territory of Latvia by the investigating the impact of geophysical factors on gradience of the anomalous magnetic field. demographic processes belong, horizontal gradients are the main factor; they are determined by calculations. Keywords: horizontal magnetic gradient, magnetic scale, magnetic gradient area, ecodemographic evaluation of territory by magnetic gradience. CHARACTERISATION OF HORIZONTAL MAGNETIC GRADIENTS The magnetic field is represented in the Latvian territory by a complex set of anomalies with different signs, intensity, size The gradient is an important parameter of anomalous and morphology. The transitions from one anomaly to another magnetic field. The discussion deals with the spatial intensity are expressed through changes in the field intensity and are variations. The thing is that the intensity of the anomalous either gradual, occurring step-by-step, or abrupt. -
In Madona Region Will Be Explored the Traditional Games
In Madona region will be explored the traditional games Yesterday began "Outdoor sports and recreation education summer school 2010", which will last until Thursday. The summer school is attended by academic staff from higher education institutions and students from Latvia and Poland. Their main task is through interviewing elder people, find out about the games that have ever been played in Madona region. — Today begins our summer school. Two states - Latvia and Poland – are involved in it. Our goal is to prepare the questionnaires, questions to begin on Tuesday our journey in Madona surroundings and interview elderly people about what games they have played in their childhood and youth. The final result is going to be publishing a book, meant for physical education teachers, coaches, classroom teachers, and it will be issued in three languages - Latvian, Polish and English. We are going to record also DVD with interviews. On Thursday afternoon the participants will have to show previously prepared game, which they have learnt during this week- yesterday told Juris Grants, vice-rector of Research of the Latvian Academy of Sport Education (LASE). The project is organized by LASE, Latvian Recreation Education association in cooperation with Joseph Pilsudski University of Physical Education and State College of Computer Science and Business Administration in Lomza. At school works teaching staff both from Poland and Latvia, and participate students from both countries. Participating in school is part of study Program, and the students will receive credit points for this activity. In Latvija — for the first time Participants of Summer School have planned to go to Cesvaine, Kusa, hill Gaiziņkalns, etc. -
Chapter 3 Chapter 3 Potential Analysis of Regional Development
CHAPTER 3 CHAPTER 3 POTENTIAL ANALYSIS OF REGIONAL DEVELOPMENT 3.1 National and Regional Policy on Socioeconomic Development 3.1.1 Review of Development Policy Latvia aims at ensuring equal working, income, social, and cultural opportunities for all inhabitants of the state, as mentioned in the following legislation, development strategies and policies. However, the former course of development after independence in 1991 has resulted in differences in living environment and opportunities of economic activity in different regions of Latvia. In many areas including LWC, insufficient economic development and activity, high unemployment rate, low income, unequal conditions for social and cultural life have been found. (1) Law on Spatial Development Planning of Latvia The Law on Spatial Development Planning of Latvia was adopted in October 1998. According to this new law, development and land use planning in Latvia is to be carried out, as such: - Local governments of districts, state cities, towns, and townships should prepare spatial development plans of their administrative areas, - Spatial development plans of higher level should be observed when producing spatial development plans of lower levels, and - Land use plans of regional and local municipal levels should be prepared in accordance with the relevant spatial development plans. Development and land use plans for LWC, therefore, has to observe and coordinate with the directions and strategies mentioned in the existing national, regional, district, and township level plans. (2) National development strategies The long-term goal of development strategy for Latvia is to become a socially harmonized country with a dynamic, open and equal opportunity as well as its own national identity. -
