Impact of the geographical environment… INFRASTRUKTURA I EKOLOGIA TERENÓW WIEJSKICH INFRASTRUCTURE AND ECOLOGY OF RURAL AREAS Nr 6/2008, POLSKA AKADEMIA NAUK, Oddział w Krakowie, s. 27–37 Komisja Technicznej Infrastruktury Wsi Commission of Technical Infrastructure of the Polish Academy of Sciences-Cracow Branch Ewa Pałka IMPACT OF THE GEOGRAPHICAL ENVIRONMENT ON AGRITOURISM DEVELOPMENT ILLUSTRATED BY THE EXAMPLE OF THE ŚWIĘTOKRZYSKIE PROVINCE Summary Management transformations which started at the turn of the eighties and nineties of the 20th century in Poland have thoroughly changed socio-economic conditions of the development of the country and its regions. The transformation of state-controlled management system required adjustment of various socio- economic and spatial structures to the new rules of market economy. This process, being based on transformation of the previous structures created in the centrally- steered management system and on the development of new structures, is being observed in many places in Poland, also in rural areas in the Świętokrzyskie Province. One of the most popular forms of development of rural areas is agri- tourism at present. The study attempts to assess the influence of geographical envi- ronment on agritourism development potential in the Świętokrzyskie Province. The analysis of elements of natural environment and tourist amenities makes it possible to evaluate how attractive rural areas are from the standpoint of agri- tourism development. The study gives numerical attractiveness indicators to show how rural areas are diversified in their likelihood of success for agritourism business Key words: rural areas, tourist attractiveness, tourist amenities INTRODUCTION In recent years the multifunctional development of rural areas has been discussed more frequently than before. -

Wiesława Ozdoba-Kosierkiewicz Portret polski XVII- i XVIII-wieczny ze zbiorów Muzeum Narodowego w Kielcach Rocznik Muzeum Narodowego w Kielcach 12, 151-193 1982 Rocznik Muzeum Narodowego w Kielcach Tom XII, Kraków 1982 WIESŁAWA OZDOBA-KOSIERKIEWICZ PORTRET POLSKI XVII- I XVIII-WIECZNY ZE ZBIORÓW MUZEUM NARODOWEGO W KIELCACH Muzeum Narodowe w Kielcach szczyci się posiadaniem jednego z najwię kszych w kraju zbioru portretu polskiego XVII i XVIII wieku. Pozyskano go w latach 1945—1946 — w okresie zabezpieczania mienia podworskiego, między innymi z majątków: Wielopolskich, Sołtyków, Halpertów, Linowskich i Mor stinów. Zespół tych obrazów eksponowany na jubileuszowej wystawie 1 pozwolił na prześledzenie pewnego fragmentu dziejów malarstwa polskiego — od początku XVII do końca XVIII wieku. Usystematyzowanie i opracowanie portretów stało się podstawą do doko nania pewnych uściśleń chronologicznych, dostarczyło bogatego materiału do tyczącego historii rodów i ich kolekcji, ułatwiło ustalenie powinowactwa i ko ligacji portretowanych, umożliwiło wreszcie identyfikację niektórych dotych czas nie określonych bądź mylnie nazwanych wizerunków. Przy obecnym stanie badań referat sygnalizuje wiele spraw i problemów, nie wyczerpując ich w pełni. Stanowi on jednak pierwszą próbę charaktery styki nadzwyczaj bogatego zbioru, a ogranicza się głównie do omówienia dwóch największych kolekcji — Wielopolskich Gonzagów-Myszkowskich z Chrobrza i Sołtyków z Kurozwęk. Ponadto charakteryzuje także ciekawsze pozycje z ko lekcji Morstinów z Kobylnik i Linowskich -
Transformation of the Flow Regime of a Large Allochthonous River in Central Europe—An Example of the Vistula River in Poland
water Article Transformation of the Flow Regime of a Large Allochthonous River in Central Europe—An Example of the Vistula River in Poland Dariusz Wrzesi ´nski and Leszek Sobkowiak * Department of Hydrology and Water Management, Institute of Physical Geography and Environmental Planning, Faculty of Geographical and Geological Sciences, Adam Mickiewicz University, Krygowskiego str. 10, 61-712 Pozna´n,Poland; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 31 December 2019; Accepted: 10 February 2020; Published: 12 February 2020 Abstract: Identification of river flow regime and its possible changes caused by natural factors or human activity is one of major issues in modern hydrology. In such studies different approaches and different indicators can be used. The aim of this study is to determine changes in flow regime of the largest river in Poland—the Vistula, using new, more objectified coefficients and indices, based on data recorded in 22 gauges on the Vistula mainstream and 38 gauges on its tributaries in the multi-year period 1971–2010. The paper consists of three main parts: in the first part, in order to recognize changes in the flow regime characteristics along the Vistula, data from gauges located on the river mainstream were analyzed with the help of the theory of entropy. In the second part gauging stations on the Vistula mainstream and its tributaries were grouped; values of the newly introduced pentadic Pardé’s coefficient of flow (discharge) (PPC) were taken as the grouping criterion. In the third part of the study a novel method of determining river regime characteristics was applied: through the recognition of the temporal structure of hydrological phenomena and their changes in the annual cycle sequences of hydrological periods (characteristic phases of the hydrological cycle) on the Vistula River mainstream and its tributaries were identified and their occurrence in the yearly cycle was discussed. -
Changes of the Vistula River Channel Pattern and Overbank Accumulation Rate in the Carpathian Foreland (South Poland) Under Human Impact
PL ISSN 0081-6434 studia geomorphologica carpatho-balcanica vol. lV, 2021 : 153 – 184. ADAM ŁaJcZaK (KraKÓW) CHANGES OF THE VISTULA RIVER CHANNEL PATTERN AND OVERBANK ACCUMULATION RATE IN THE CARPATHIAN FORELAND (SOUTH POLAND) UNDER HUMAN IMPACT Abstract : the rate of overbank accumulationth in the Vistula floodplain within the carpathian Foreland has increased since at least the 16 century as a result of drainage basin deforestation (mainly in the carpathian portion) and agricultural use of this area. however, since the 1850s, additional causes have included deepening of the Vistula channel and its tributaries (mainly the carpathian ones) initiated by regulation works which delivered additional sediment for overbank accumulation within the inter-embankment zone. since the 1950s, a rapid decrease in the overbank accumulation rate was noted. this resulted from the retention of the majority of the sediment by deep reservoirs on the carpathian tributaries of the Vistula, reforestation of- the carpathian portion of the drainage basin, and the slowing down of the rate of deepening of the Vistula channel. an estimate was made of the differentiation of the rate of overbank accu mulation within the inter-embankment zone in the longitudinal profile of the study section of the Vistula. the author proposed a modified model of temporal change of the rate of overbank accumulation in section of the course of the Vistula studied, distinguishing a stage in which changeKeywords was influenced by regulation works. : overbank accumulation, floodplain, inter-embankment zone, inter-groyne basin, river regulation, river Vistula, carpathian Foreland INTRODUCTION accumulation of sediment transported by mountain rivers on floodplains in mountain forelands has occurred as a result of increasing human impact during the recent centuries (Wolman 1967; gregory 1987; starkel 1987a,- 1994, 1995a, 2001b, 2005, 2014; Łajczak 1995a, 1999; czajka 2000; Warowna 2003; Łajczak et al. -

The Annihilation of the Arian “Capital”
ODRODZENIE I REFORMACJA W POLSCE ■ SI 2017 ■ PL ISSN 0029-8514 Janusz Tazbir The Annihilation of the Arian “Capital” The history of the fall of Raków was the subject of a special short dis- sertation by Józef Stańko1 already 35 years ago. At present, however, that work is absolutely insufficient. On the one hand (as stressed in a review of Stańko’s dissertation2), the author did not make use of all the sources available to him and committed many oversights and inac- curacies;3 on the other, since the time the work was published, new, fairly important sources clarifying the circumstances connected with the Raków trial have been added. Since the trial brought about the annihi- lation of the main centre of the Polish Brethren in the first half of the seventeenth century, it seems necessary to re-discuss the 1638 events, so tragic for the Polish Arianism, on the basis of more extensive sources. Founded in 1569 by the Calvinist voivode of Podole, Jan Sienieński, Raków has twice played a leading role in the history of our Antitrini- tarianism. First, between 1569 and 1572, as a centre of supporters of social radicalism and then again, from the beginning of the seven- teenth century until 1638, as a seat of the academy and typography famous all over Europe and the place of many synods grouping the best Arian thinkers. It is not surprising, then, that the Raków cen- tre was a thorn in the flesh of the opponents of the Polish Breth- ren who referred to it in an anti-Arian pamphlet printed in the early seventeenth century as a 1 J. -
Potamonyms of the Vistula River Basin As a Part of Cultural Heritage
Potamonyms of the Vistula River Basin as a Part of Cultural Heritage Urszula BIJAK* There are many ways in which cultural heritage can be defined, depending on the branch of science that is dealing with this term. With no doubt, a language, including proper names, is a medium of the non-material cultural heritage. The aim of my article is to present a “hydronymic map” of the Vistula basin from the linguistic point of view. I will focus on: 1/the cultural heritage reflected by the river names, which are chronologically and genetically differentiated and represent several layers: archaic Pre- Slavic names, so-called “Old-European”, Polish, other Slavic (Czech, Slovak, Boyko, Lemko, Ukrainian, Belarusian) and non-Slavic (Baltic, German, Vlach, Latin); 2/ the image of the lingual reality constructed by the river names, the creation of names which is a result of action of a number of different motives, incentives, ways of thinking and experiencing the reality; 3/the changes of hydronyms, variability (so called polyonymy) characteristic for this onimic category coming from the lack of naming memory, collapse of naming tradition through the centuries. 1. Introduction There are many ways in which cultural heritage can be defined, depending on the branch of science that is dealing with this term. The conceptual and territorial range of the term can also differ (Lewandowska 2007). With no doubt, a language, including proper names, is a medium of the non-material cultural heritage. Hydronymy occupies a significant position within the realm of geographical names and from the beginning of the 20th century it played an important role as a research topic for linguists. -
LUBLIN-VISTULA CASE STUDY Z. Kaczmarek, J. Kindler, and A. Laski

Opinions or views con tained herein are solely those of the authors. 2361 Laxenburg IInternational Institute for Applied Systems Ana lysis Austria Research Proposal for the Water Resources Sub-Project z. Kaczmarek J. Kindler A. Laski Introduction Making optimum use of the water resources is a task which long has engaged human effort and which has, in recent decades, been studied within the framework of the integrated regional development plans. The "integrated development" of a region means the orderly marshalling of all its resources to promote human welfare. It is evident, however, that the influence of development of a given region upon the rest of the national economy is in most of the cases considerable. Moreover, the investment needs of any development scheme are closely linked to the needs of the whole economy. These introductory comments are especially relevant to the water resources development schemes. It is now widely recognized that individual water projects - whether single or multipurpose - cannot as a rule be undertaken with optimum benefit for the people affected before there is at least the broad outline of a plan for the entire drainage area. In the Vistula River Basin, we are fortunate to have such a plan. The first long-term water resources development plan was drafted by the Polish Academy of Sciences in the years 1953-1956, for the time horizon of 1975. Then the plan was twice revised in the early 60's with the simultaneous extension of the time horizon to 1985. -

Shallow sandy habitats at point bars were repeatedly sampled with beach seining over 24-h periods. Species richness peaked at dusk and then decreased throughout the 24-h period in all the rivers. Overall fish abundance changed similarly in the smallest and the largest river, whereas in the mid-sized river it increased in the late afternoon hours. Some species (three gudgeon species, golden loach, and chub) were persistently nocturnal, whereas others (dace, bleak, and roach) shifted to diurnal activity in the mid-sized and large rivers. These differences in diel changes in the abundance of certain species might be explained in the context of variation in availability (i.e., proximity) of other, more heterogeneous habitats. -
On the Occurrence of Thysanoptera in Poland
340 THRIPS AND TOSPOVIRUSES: PROCEEDINGS OF THE 7TH INTERNATIONAL SYMPOSIUM ON THYSANOPTERA 341 On the occurrence of Thysanoptera in Poland Halina Kucharczyk1 and Irena Zawirska2 1Dept. of Zoology, Maria Curie-Skłodowska University, 19 Akademicka Str., 20-033 Lublin, Poland; 2 4/4 Sewerynów Str., 00-331 Warszawa, Poland. E-mail: [email protected] Abstract: The paper reviews our knowledge of Thysanoptera in Poland. A total of 216 species are recorded from Poland, but 34 of these have been recorded only once and at one locality, and 7 of these date from before World War II. During the last 10 years, 25 more thrips species have been found in Poland, and a lot of species have been noted at new localities in different regions. The best known fauna is that of xerothermic habitats that are typical of big river valleys of upland areas in central and eastern Poland. Introduction information about 86 species, 5 of which were Poland lies on the border between two large later considered as synonyms, while 6 come from physiographical regions, the Central-European the areas that at present lie outside Poland.

Mickiewicza 33, 31-120 Kraków, Poland Received: January 11, 2005 Accepted: May 19, 2005 Abstract Thick shelled river mussel Unio crassus (included in IUCN Red Data List) is a benthic, filter-feeding animal very susceptible to any changes of water chemistry. In this paper we report on the new sites of this species in the Małopolska region – an area of strong anthropogenic pressure. Physical and chemical param- eters have been compared between 8 rivers inhabited and not inhabited by the mussel. Results indicate that despite economic development of the region, it retains clear rivers; however, subtle differences in water chemistry can influence the occurrence of this endangered species. Keywords: Unio crassus, water quality, bioindicator Introduction One of the species that recently attracted the atten- tion of scientists is the thick-shelled river mussel Unio Chemical pollution is considered to be one of the prime crassus. In the past, it has been one of the dominant spe- reasons for the reduction of biodiversity in aquatic habi- cies in many Polish rivers, reaching very high densities tats [1]. This is particularly important to freshwater mol- (e.g. in the River Nida [6]) and in recent years its num- luscs of the family Unionidae, animals of relatively large bers have fallen dramatically, in line with the deterioration biomass, feeding on particles filtered from water.
