Abstract: In this paper, eleven alien plant species are presented, two of them are reported for the fi rst time in the Republic of Moldova (Euphorbia maculata, Gaillardia pulchella), one of them has so far been reported only from a botanical garden (Oenothera glazioviana), and eight species were previously known from a few localities in Moldova (Amaranthus powelii, Centaurea diff usa, Grinde- lia squarrosa, Gypsophila perfoliata, Ruta graveolens, Silphium perfoliatum, Sorghum halepense and Tragus racemosus). We a lso present an indigenous species which behaves as invasive (Rumex thyrsi- fl orus). We c ollected plants primarily on roadsides, along railway lines and in settlements, less oft en in natural habitats. Our goal is to report scattered data here. Voucher specimens were deposited in the Hung arian Natural History Museum, Botanical Department, Herbarium Generale (BP). Key words: alien plants, invasive species, railway lines, road margins, synanthropic fl ora, urban fl ora INTRODUCTION Some alien species may become invasive, threatening natural and agricul- tural ecosystems, causing damages to the economy and human health (McNeely 2001, Wittenberg & Cock 2001, Csiszár & Korda 2015).

  • Challenges in Utilization and Management of Water Resources of the Camenca River Basin in the Context of Intensified Human Impact
    Lucrările Seminarului Geografic Dimitrie Cantemir Vol. 47, Issue 1, October 2019, pp. 75-97 http://dx.doi.org/10.15551/lsgdc.v47i1.04 Article Challenges in utilization and management of water resources of the Camenca river basin in the context of intensified human impact Petru Bacal 1 , Ana Jeleapov 1 1 Institute of Ecology and Geography, Chisinau, Republic of Moldova. ___________________________________________________________________________________ Abstract. This article is dedicated to the evaluation of water use and management of 12 river water bodies delineated in the Camenca river basin – the biggest tributary of the Prut River in the limits of the Republic of Moldova. The study is based on the approaches and methodology proposed by the EU Water Framework Directive and its methodological guidelines as well as on the national normative documents. The present research was conducted as part of the Camenca river basin management plan and constitutes the basis for the development of the Programme of Measures meant to accomplish the environmental objectives established for water bodies. Considering water use problems in the limits of the pilot basin, in the present research several challenges were identified: intensification of climate change and reduction of water supply; reduced accessibility of the population to aqueducts and the lack of public sewerage systems; significant impact of diffuse pollution on agriculture; a large number of reservoirs in improper conditions. With regards to water resources management, the following issues were revealed: incomplete inventory of water resources and frequent cases of unauthorised water use; low prices for water supply and sewerage services as well as for water use and water pollution, which do not cover water use costs and investments in water resources and aquatic ecosystems protection; insufficient and fragmented subventions in water sector; issues regarding legal framework and adequate exploitation regime of reservoirs, etc.

  • Vulnerability Assessment ( Executive Summary)
    Executive Summary A project "Reducing vulnerability to extreme floods and climate change in the Dniester River basin" was one of EExxeeccuuttiivvee the pilot projects under the program of adaptation to climate change in the transboundary basins, carried out in accordance with the UNECE SSuummmmaarryy Convention on the Protection and Use of Transboundary Watercourses and International Lakes. The Convention is considering the climate change not only as a challenge to mankind, but also as one of the drivers of trans- boundary cooperation, which can be the starting point in activities to im- prove relations between the riparian countries. A joint analysis of prob- lems, priorities and solutions as the determining factor of transboundary cooperation, defined the agenda and methods to execute the task of a pro- ject. Harmonization of efforts of the executors from Ukraine and Moldova, as well as used means, models and scenarios, information exchange and the increased using of results of re- searches, projects and programs in the field of a studied problem have determined the format and content of a present report. 1 Executive Summary 1. Methodological approaches to assessment of vulnerability The assessment of vulnerability to climate change of the Dniester River basin is based on the Concept of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC, 2007a) which provides differentiation between three main components of vulnerability: expo- sure, sensitivity and adaptive capacity. Exposure in this triad is determined by nature, magnitude and the rate of climate change represented by the long-term observed or expected changes in the climatic conditions. Sensitivity determines the extent to which the system is sensitive, positive or negative, to the direct or indirect impact of climate change.

  • Agricultural Land Reform in Moldova
    AGRICULTURAL LAND REFORM IN MOLDOVA Matthew Gorton, Department of Agricultural Economics and Food Marketing, University of Newcastle, Newcastle upon Tyne NE1 7RU. United Kingdom. ABSTRACT During transition, Moldova has pursued a policy of small-scale land privatisiation and a sucession of decollectivisation initiatives. Small-scale land reform has been important for bolstering the real incomes of rural households but living standards have continued to fall. While initial political resistance to decollectivisation has been overcome, serious challenges remain for co-ordinating agricultural production, procurement and marketing from a newly fragmented structure of land ownership. The delay in issuing formal land titles has inhibited the development of land market. The former large-scale collective and state farms provided several key social services in rural areas and the delivery of these services in the post- collectivised era also represents a serious challenge. Key Words Land reform, Moldova, Decollectivisation 1. INTRODUCTION Under communism, state and collective farms dominated agricultural production in most Central and Eastern Europe Countries (CEECs). During transition, governments have attempted to reform agricultural production systems by pursuing policies of reorganisation, privatisation and / or land redistribution. However, the nature of land policies has varied significantly between countries (Swinnen, 1999). Moreover, these reform policies have typically taken longer to implement than initially thought and have had unforeseen effects (Swinnen and Tangermann, 1999). Land reform is one area of restructuring which has seemed disappointingly slow despite it been perceived as 'an essential cornerstone' in successful transformation (Lerman et al. 1998; World Bank, 1998a). This issue has been particularly prominent in Moldova where in 1996 agriculture and the food industries accounted for 40% of GDP and employed 50% of the active labour force (World Bank, 1998b).

    Lucrările Seminarului Geografic Dimitrie Cantemir Vol. 46, Issue 2, October 2018, pp. 19-37 http://dx.doi.org/10.15551/lsgdc.v46i2.02 Research article The Regional Pecularities of Water Use in the Republic of Moldova Petru Bacal 1 , Daniela Burduja 1 1 Institute of Ecology and Geography, Academy of Economic Science of Moldova Abstract. The purpose of this research consists in the elucidation of regional and branch aspects of the water use in the Republic of Moldova. The main topics presented in this paper are: 1) the regional delimitations of the Republic of Moldova; 2) resources of surface water and groundwater: 3) regional aspects of water use; 4) dynamics of water use by abstracted sources and by the main usage categories; 5) branch profile of water use and its dynamics: 6) existing problems in the evaluation and monitoring of water use. Keywords: water use, region, technological, agriculture, household. 1. Introduction According to the economic-geographic criterion, the Republic of Moldova (RM) is divided into 4 distinct regions: Northern, Central, Southern and Eastern (figure 1). The North Region (NR) overlaps with the North Development Region, established by the RM Law on Regional Development (Legea nr. 438/2006) and comprises 11 districts from the northern part of the Republic of Moldova, as well as the Balti municipality. The total area of North Region is 10 thousand km2, which represents more than 30% of the total area of the Republic (table 1). The population of this region is 987 thousand inhabitants (25%), including 150 thousand inhabitants - in the Balti city. The largest part of NR is located within the Raut river (the main right tributary of the Dniester River) basin, including the districts of Donduseni, Soroca, Drochia, Floresti, Singerei, as well as Balti municipality.

  • Proposal for Moldova
    AFB/PPRC.24/29 26 February, 2019 Adaptation Fund Board Project and Programme Review Committee Twenty-Third Meeting Bonn, Germany, 12-13 March , 2019 Agenda Item 9 v) PROPOSAL FOR MOLDOVA AFB/PPRC.24/29 Background 1. The Operational Policies and Guidelines (OPG) for Parties to Access Resources from the Adaptation Fund (the Fund), adopted by the Adaptation Fund Board (the Board), state in paragraph 45 that regular adaptation project and programme proposals, i.e. those that request funding exceeding US$ 1 million, would undergo either a one-step, or a two-step approval process. In case of the one-step process, the proponent would directly submit a fully-developed project proposal. In the two-step process, the proponent would first submit a brief project concept, which would be reviewed by the Project and Programme Review Committee (PPRC) and would have to receive the endorsement of the Board. In the second step, the fully- developed project/programme document would be reviewed by the PPRC, and would ultimately require the Board’s approval. 2. The Templates approved by the Board (Annex 5 of the OPG, as amended in March 2016) do not include a separate template for project and programme concepts but provide that these are to be submitted using the project and programme proposal template. The section on Adaptation Fund Project Review Criteria states: For regular projects using the two-step approval process, only the first four criteria will be applied when reviewing the 1st step for regular project concept. In addition, the information provided in the 1st step approval process with respect to the review criteria for the regular project concept could be less detailed than the information in the request for approval template submitted at the 2nd step approval process.
