14 Tri-City Gdansk / Sopot / Gdynia 14.1 the Key Issues Addressed by This Case Study
FACTORS AFFECTING INTERCONNECTIVITY 14 TRI-CITY GDANSK / SOPOT / GDYNIA 14.1 THE KEY ISSUES ADDRESSED BY THIS CASE STUDY Tri-City is a term used to describe the urban area of Gdansk, Gdynia and Sopot. The key issues addressed by the Tri-City case study are the interconnections between long distance transport from outside the Tri-City metropolitan area with transport within the Tri-City network. This case study is somewhat different from cases where a single city is involved. The Tri-City consists of three major cities with number of smaller population centres. The specific situation of the area is that Gdansk and Gdynia could both be considered as the core of the network. As a result it is very difficult to address any particular gravity centre within the Tri-City area. Due to the geographic location of the Tri-City there are also a number of modes which play (or could potentially play) a key role in the transport network. Within this case study the following problems are discussed: Improved links, interchanges and services A majority of conducted and planned actions in the Tri-City area aim at better interconnectivity through new investments, because currently the transport system lacks basic infrastructure for good interconnections. Therefore infrastructure development is given priority in the Tri-City. Even if passenger interconnectivity is not the main reason for creation of new links (like better land access to ports) there can still be interconnectivity benefits. New links and interchanges concern almost all transport modes, but the most important investments take place (or will take place) in rail, air and sea / inland waterways modes.

PRZYKŁAD OBSZARU METROPOLITALNEGO GDAŃSK-GDYNIA-SOPOT NR DOI: 10.25167/sm2018.031.04 s. 53–67 ABSTRACT: The process of institutionalization of metropolitan cooperation within the metropolitan area around Gdańsk has been the subject of a debate with the participation of local representatives of various sectors. Currently, the main entity carrying out activities on a metropolitan scale is the Gdańsk-Gdynia-Sopot Metropolitan Area Association. It has been responsible for a series of bottom-up projects, implementation of the Integrated Territorial Investments mechanism, as well as lobbying towards establishing a metropolitan union in Pomeranian Voivodship. The article describes the current conditionings that seem to be the most important for the spatial extent and objects of the cooperation in the context of the foregoing metropolitan discourse. KEY WORDS: metropolitan governance, multi-level governance, Gdańsk-Gdynia-Sopot Metropolitan Area, Integrated Territorial Investments ABSTRAKT: Proces instytucjonalizacji współpracy metropolitalnej na terenie obszaru metropolitalnego kształtującego się wokół Gdańska od początku transformacji ustrojowej stanowi przedmiot lokalnej debaty z udziałem przedstawicieli różnych sektorów.

Coastal Zone As a Space of Foreign Arrival Tourism in 2000-2017
32 QUALITY IN SPORT 1 (5) 2019, p. 32-43, e-ISSN 2450-3118 Received 18.02.2019, Accepted 29.05.2019 DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.12775/QS.2019.005 Krzysztof Parzych1 Institute of Socio-Economical Geography and Tourism Pomeranian University in Słupsk, Poland Coastal zone as a space of foreign arrival tourism in 2000-2017 Abstract This study addresses the development of foreign incoming tourism in the coastal tourist zone of the Baltic coast. Quantitative and spatial analysis of foreign incoming tourism in coastal communes of the Baltic coast in the period 2005-2017 was carried out. The GUS Local Data Bank data on the number of foreign tourists using the accommodation base of the number of overnight stays for foreign tourists in all 38 coastal communes in the Baltic Sea Coast were used as source material for the implementation of the research problem. The material was analyzed statistically and cartographically in the form of cartograms. The analysis of the spatial distribution of foreign tourists and overnight stays in individual coastal municipalities indicates their strong concentration in the spa communes (Kołobrzeg, Świnoujście, Międzyzdroje, Sopot), in Gdańsk and in communes with well-developed accommodation infrastructure and accompanying services (Rewal, Darłowo, Dziwnów). The least visited are rural communes, located on the outskirts of the region, with poorly developed tourist infrastructure, with a dominant function of socio-economic development, different from the tourist one. Keywords: tourist space, tourist accessibility, tourist traffic Introduction The coastal zone in Poland is the main area of concentration of tourist traffic in Poland. Along the 528 km shoreline of the Baltic Sea there are 93 settlements 3 km away.

The particular contribution in the work of popularizing the bathing areas, put the Romans, because they built them along with amphitheaters and temples of the gods.

Bioaerosols on Tri-City (Gdańsk–Sopot–Gdynia) Beaches
Int Marit Health 2010; 61, 1: 41–43 www.intmarhealth.pl Copyright © 2010 Via Medica ORIGINAL PAPER ISSN 1641–9251 Bioaerosols on Tri-city (Gdańsk–Sopot–Gdynia) beaches Ma³gorzata Michalska, Maria Bartoszewicz, Monika Cieszyñska, Jacek Nowacki Medical University of Gdañsk The Interdepartmental Institute of Maritime and Tropical Medicine in Gdynia Department of Environmental Protection and Hygiene of Transport ABSTRACT Bioaerosol formation is an important process of mass and energy exchange between the sea and the atmosphere by means of droplets of marine dust. Studies of marine aerosol activity developed in the last decades of the 20th century. Those studies revealed that concentrations of bacteria in aerosol droplets were hundreds of times higher than were those measured in superficial marine waters. Moreover, it was determined that aerosol activity at sea can influence the sanitary condition of the air, especially in seaside areas. Examinations of air composition in coastal regions were performed on the beaches of the Tri-city, Sobieszewo, and Komary. Airborne microorganisms were also investigated in the marine zone at the Vistu- la river mouth. The air samples were collected by a filtration method using Sartorius apparatus. The ex- posed filters were then placed onto agar media in Petri dishes and incubated. All measurements are expressed in CFU/m3, i.e. colony forming units per cubic metre of examined air. Meteorological parame- ters such as temperature, humidity, and wind speed and direction were also measured. The obtained results revealed statistically significant trends between the total number of bacteria and fungal spores, and the sampling season. The greatest number of microorganisms was noted in spring and autumn.
