Puck Bay and the Gulf of Gdańsk are separated from each other by the Lagoon, a part of Puck Bay Hel Peninsula and are connected only in the south. (the Baltic Sea) The bay is divided into two parts: a deeper section with an average depth of 20.5, called Outer Puck Bay, and a markedly shallower part with an average Maciej Matciak1, Jacek Nowacki2, Włodzimierz depth of 3.1 m, called Puck Lagoon.

Key words: Puck Bay, field measurements, water physical properties, upwelling Abstract In this short communication we present the results of field measurements which show the incidence of waters originating from the deeper layers of Puck Bay in shallow Puck Lagoon. The reason for such a situation is the occurrence of a small-scale upwelling. This phenomenon may play a significant role in shaping the ecosystem conditions of Puck Lagoon, which is unique in terms of its natural values. Fig. 1.

At some locations offshore winds pushing were characterised by relatively low salinity, from away the surface waters are the direct reason for the about 6.4 to 7 PSU, and poor transparency (Fig. 2a, creation of deeper inflows towards the coast (e.g. 2b).

Unlike most coastal bay in the surface layer, which causes an outflow at upwellings, where the surface waters decrease in greater depths. temperature, the water temperature in Puck Lagoon It is quite probable that a subsurface was high, slightly above 17°C (Fig. 2c).

Puck Lagoon is unique among Polish coastal waters in terms of biodiversity and the occurrence of underwater meadows (Opioła and Kruk-Dowgiałło 2009). For this reason it is subject to protection as the Nadmorski Lanscape Park and is incorporated into the HELCOM network of Baltic Sea Protected Areas and the European Ecological Network Natura 2000. Therefore it is worth considering whether Puck Lagoon biological conditions depend on the lagoon’s water exchange with the deeper layers of Outer Puck Bay.

These compounds have a negative influence on the endocrine system of both humans and wildlife. Adverse effects include serious reproductive and developmental disorders, such as femi- nization of the population, especially in wildlife. AP and BPA are commonly used in household items and industrial applications or as monomers or additives in plastic production. Methods for AP and BPA degradation can be divided into four main groups. In membrane-type processes, the important factor is membrane selection. Good results were obtained with the application of dense nanofiltration or reverse osmosis membranes. The selection of bacterial or fungi species is crucial for biological treat- ment. Sphingomonas and Pseudomonas sp. are known for their good organic compound degradation capabilities. The oxidation process is based on the proper selection of an oxidation agent and catalyst when needed. Hydrogen peroxide and ozone are often mentioned in the literature. Common catalysts are UV radiation, Fe2+ ions, or oxides of tin, zinc, and titanium. In sorption processes, the selection of the sorbent is important.

  • Polish Coastal Dunes – Affecting Factors and Morphology
    Landform Analysis, Vol. 22: 33–59, 2013 doi: http://dx.doi.org/10.12657/landfana.022.004 Polish coastal dunes – affecting factors and morphology Tomasz A. Łabuz Institute of Marine Sciences, University of Szczecin, Poland, [email protected] Abstract: This article describe Polish coastal dunes and the factors influencing their development. The Polish coast is 500 km long and mainly exposed for a northerly direction. It is a part of the southern Baltic shore. The Polish coast is composed of mostly loose sand, till and peat. Because the coast hardiness is so weak, it is under constant threat from storm surges as well as human impact caused by rapid infrastructure development and the coastal protection measures put in place to try and protect it. These protection measures destabilize the natural coast dynamics and rebuilding process. Almost 85% of the shoreline is built up by sandy aeolian deposits and covered by different dune types. Among them are typical foredunes or inland dunes in erod- ed coastal areas. The second type of dune coasts are built up by land dunes, which appear on the coast as a result of sea erosion causing land regression. Sometimes dunes can be found over moraine deposits or in front of moraine old cliffs. Nowadays these habitats are heavily threatened by storm surges and human activity. In some places there is an accumulation that leads to new ridge developments. This article describes these issues with an emphasis on the present dynamics of Poland’s coastal areas. Key words: dune coast, dune types, dune dynamics, factors impact, Polish Baltic coast Introduction Overgrazing and the deforestation of coastal areas may lead to new dune mobilisation (Nordstrom 2000).

  • 1160 Large Shallow Inlets and Bays
    1160 Large shallow inlets and bays Photo. 1. Sea grass meadows in the Puck Lagoon (photo T. Krypczyk) I. DESCRIPTION OF THE HABITAT Habitat Large, shallow inlets and bays (1160) is defined as „an indentations of the coast, sheltered from wave action and being under minor influence of freshwaters, characterized by high diversity of flora and fauna communities” (Warzocha 2004). In the Polish marine areas, only the Puck Lagoon with part of the Outer Puck Bay limited to 20 m isobath with a total area of 21990.1 ha, can be considered as habitat 1160 (site central point 18°35,442’E 54°41,100’N). The site is situated within boundaries of Natura 2000 area – Puck Bay and Hel Peninsula PLH220032 (SDF for PLH220032). An important role for the preservation of the habitat 1160 plays its ecotone zone – in this case the coastal area 50 m wide (Michałek and Kruk-Dowgiałło 2014, Michałek and Kruk-Dowgiałło 2016). Generally, both basins, the Puck Lagoon and the Outer Puck Bay, are characterized by significant diversity in terms of depth, water exchange and morphology of the bottom. The Outer Puck Bay is deeper and direct connected with the Gulf of Gdańsk. Its bottom is not diverse and its depth decreases eastward. The Puck Lagoon is shallower basin with an average depth of 3 m and more diverse bottom morphology with many depressions and hollows. The boundary between those two water bodies is formed by a natural, sandy embankment called Rybitwia Shallow, which is an integral part of the habitat. It is 8.6 km long and remains above water surface for half a year.

I set off from Gdynia on a water taxi, leichte Brise mit dem charakteristischen Meeresgeruch bleibt lange in meiner ziemi - Kaszubi - po Nordzie, rozpoczęłam od Helu. Długo będę pamiętać taking my bike with me. In Hel I visited the seal sanctuary, the Museum of Erinnerung. Ich trat meine Reise in Gdynia mit einer Wasser-Straßenbahn lekką bryzę niosącą charakterystyczny, morski zapach. Z Gdyni wyruszyłam Fishery and I also ate fresh fish in Wiejska street. The food was delicious, an. Ich nahm auch mein Fahrrad mit. In Hel besuchte ich das Robbengehege, Starostwo Powiatowe w Pucku, tramwajem wodnym zabierając rower. W Helu odwiedziłam fokarium, so I regretted that I could not eat more to satisfy my hunger for the future. das Fischereimuseum und in der Wiejska-Straße habe ich einen frischen District Authorities in Puck, Muzeum Rybołówstwa, a na ulicy Wiejskiej zjadłam świeżą rybę. Jedzenie After lunch, there was time for physical activity, so I sat on my bike and Fisch gegessen. Das Essen war hervorragend schade, dass man sich für die Kreisstarostei Puck, było doskonałe. Szkoda, że nie można najeść się na zapas. Po obiedzie czas there I went. The path from Hel to Jastarnia is just fantastic. I guess there nächsten Tage nicht satt essen kann.
