  • 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).

Serdecznie zapraszam do lektury kolejnego numeru Biuletynu „Natural- nie”. Znajdziecie w nim Państwo szereg ciekawych informacji na temat działalności Funduszu, jak również różnych przedsięwzięć, związanych z ekologią, ochroną środowiska czy inwestycjami realizowanymi przez na- szych beneficjentów. Głównym tematem bieżącego wydania biuletynu jest podsumowanie konkursu na Najbardziej Ekologiczną Gminę. Decyzją Komisji Konkursowej główne nagrody pojadą do Kołobrzegu, gdyż w kategorii miast triumfował Kołobrzeg, natomiast w kategorii gmin wiejskich – gmina Kołobrzeg! Ser- decznie gratulujemy! Z drugim beneficjentem w regionie (Gmina Mielno) podpisaliśmy umowę o dofinansowanie ze środków POIiŚ. Kolejnym będzie Urząd Morski w Słup- sku, który otrzyma ponad 88 mln na zabezpieczenie brzegu morskiego w Kołobrzegu. Dzięki realizacji tej inwestycji już niebawem (2011 rok) plaże w okolicach Kołobrzegu będą szersze o około 30 metrów. Przed nami najprawdopodobniej ostatni konkurs w ramach I osi prioryte- towej (gospodarka wodno-ściekowa). Tym samym jest to ostatnia szansa dla beneficjentów, aby otrzymać dotacje na tego typu inwestycje. Prze- widujemy, że z terenu woj. zachodniopomorskiego wnioski złoży 8 gmin a łączna wartość wszystkich projektów powinna przekroczyć 700 mln zł!

  • Annual Review of Labour Relations and Social Dialogue
    2018 POLAND By Michał Polakowski Forecasts Socio-economic developments Industrial relations Annual Review of Labour Relations and Social Dialogue State policies Tripartite social dialogue Annual Review 2018 of Labour Relations and Social Dialogue Poland / By Michał Polakowski • Developments in Poland in 2018 from many points of view were a continuation of the situation in 2017. The support for the ruling coalition remained strong. In general, the political environment is relatively unpredictable, also when relations with the European Union are concerned. The PiS-led coalition government had been reshuffled in December 2017, with a new Prime Minister, Mateusz Morawiecki, and several crucial ministers being replaced. The political scene remains highly polarised with a notable weakness of the left. • In economic terms, in 2018 Poland continued a positive trend of an increasing employment level and record low unemployment. Only in the last months of the year did unemployment start to grow slightly. While a shortage of workers in the labour market is being discussed, the increase in salaries is relatively modest. At the same time, the labour market is relying increasingly on foreigners. • A major development in the social sphere is a reform of the pension system introducing quasi-mandatory occupational pension schemes for the largest companies (and to be further introduced in smaller entities). The marginalisation of social dialogue on the central level continued as the government ignored the role of the Social Dialogue Council in important socio-economic legislation. • Apart from the crisis regarding the judiciary and the state of democracy in Poland, there was a growing unrest in the public sector – in police, healthcare, education and some state-owned companies.

  • Urban Consolidation Centres for Medium-Size Touristic Cities in the Westpomeranian Region of Poland
    Available online at www.sciencedirect.com Procedia Social and Behavioral Sciences 2 (2010) 6264–6273 The Sixth International Conference on City Logistics Urban consolidation centres for medium-size touristic cities in the Westpomeranian Region of Poland Krzysztof Chwesiuka, Kinga Kijewskaa, Stanisław Iwana* aMaritime University of Szczecin, Faculty of Transport Engineering and Economics,ul. Pobożnego 11, 70-507 Szczecin, Poland Elsevier use only: Received date here; revised date here; accepted date here Abstract Among the many problems arising in cities, freight delivery is one of the most important ones. Increasing demands of the recipients (due to e-commerce development) leads to pressure and intensification of transporting freight through inner-city areas. This generates many unwanted results such as congestion, escalation of waste and environmental devastation, increased noise levels, greater than before, such as the risk of car accidents. An important alternative for traditional freight delivery are Urban Consolidation Centres. Utilizing UCC gives a chance to eliminate the harmful effects due to transporting freight by large-size vehicles through the city areas. This paper is focused on analysis of perspectives of urban consolidation centres development in Westpomeranian Region of Poland, concentrating on medium-size cities. For cities like Świnoujście and Kołobrzeg implementation of urban consolidation centres is important for efficiency of freight delivery especially during holiday periods. © 2010 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved Keywords: Freight delivering; urban consolidation centre; congestion; touristic cities; Westpomeranian Region of Poland 1. Introduction The dynamic economic development is connected with the increase of industrial production and turnover of trade, which results in the increase of goods flow.
