Alexander Slaev, Varna Free University The goals of this study are: • to identify whether and to what extent processes of urban sprawl exist in Sofia • to identify whether and to what extent these processes were/ are generated by the market • to identify the main indicators to measure urban sprawl and the impact of the market • to identify the specific features of market demand generating urban sprawl in Sofia • to identify the interests of the market players and groups that have major contribution to the processes of urban sprawl in Sofia • to identify the main indicators to measure urban sprawl and the impact of the market • to identify social and economic factors and components of urban policy that influence market demand that generates sprawl 1. Processes of urban expansion of Sofia – growth versus sprawl In this part of the study the growth of the town/ the city of Sofia will be examined with respect to the correlation between the growth of the population, the growth of the urbanized territory and the density of population. There is a relation between the processes of growth of a city and the processes of sprawl. Like sprawl, urban growth, too, usually results in expansion of urbanized territories. The main difference is that growth normally induces rises in urban densities, while falling densities are an inherent characteristic of urban sprawl. Therefore, the enlargement of the built-up are of Sofia is the first factor to be studied with respect to studying the processes of growth/ sprawl in Sofia.

This paper provides an overview of the land cover changes in the period between 1990 and 2006, and the potential correlation between the dynamics of the total population change on the one hand, and the land cover change on the other. The initial hypotheses of this paper are: (1) occupation and sealing of productive soil in peri-urban zones is not proportional to the population dynamics of cities and their metropolitan areas; and (2) expansion of soil sealing in peri-urban zones is not significantly affected by the differences with regard to the natural surroundings and historical development of cities, nor by these cities being developed cities or cities in transition, capitalistic or post-socialist cities, etc.

  • Exploring the Socio-Spatial Inequalities of Airbnb in Sofia, Bulgaria Maartje
    2018 Vol. 72 · No. 4 · 313–327 EXPLORING THE SOCIO-SPATIAL INEQUALITIES OF AIRBNB IN SOFIA, BULGARIA MAARTJE ROELOFSEN With 4 figures Received 21 May 2018 · Accepted 26 November 2018 Summary: The objective of this article is to provide an analysis of the spatialities of Airbnb in Sofia, Bulgaria. Relying on an analysis of both quantitative and qualitative data, this article firstly explores the diffusion and concentration of Airbnb listings in the city’s districts. It questions whether the platform’s self-proclaimed contribution to a more diversified offering of tourism accommodation indeed applies to the context of Sofia. It then identifies which listings are most popular among Airbnb guests, and examines who reaps the benefits and profits from this “sharing” economy and who does not. In doing so, this article aims to provide a more nuanced understanding of the power relations in the production and consumption of Airbnb experiences. Whilst discussing the socio-spatial impacts of Airbnb in Sofia, this article takes into account some of the broader urban transformations that have taken place in the city since the end of the socialist regime in 1989. The findings suggest that the large majority of Airbnb listings tend to concentrate in those districts that are marked by commercialization and gentrification and are home to a privileged higher-income population. These areas generally also already benefit from a high concentration of official tourism accommodation and tourist attractions. As such, the article concludes that, like in other European cities, Airbnb benefits a selective number of hosts and potentially further exacerbates an already problematic private rental market.

    Bulgarian Chemical Communications, Volume 50, Special Issue G (pp. 28 - 33) 2018 Potential of corrosion and/or deposition of solid phases in the thermal waters in the region of Sofia Valley, Bulgaria, depending on their chemical composition Mila Trayanova1*, Vladimir Hristov1, Radostina Atanassova1, Edith Haslinger2, Otmar Plank2, Stefan Wyhlidal2, Aleksey Benderev1 1Geological Institute, Bulgarian Academy of Sciences, Acad. G. Bonchev St., Block 24, Sofia 1113, Bulgaria 2Austrian Institute of Technology, Center for Energy, Giefinggasse 2, 1210 Vienna, Austria The thermal waters in the region of Sofia Valley were essential for the emergence and development of the city. There are over 70 water sources with a total flow of 110 l/s and a temperature of 21 °C to 81 °C. They are used for bottling, balneology, as a source of heating energy, spa tourism and others. Waters are formed in rocks with different composition and age, which affect the chemical composition. Therefore, it is essential to evaluate the probability of corrosion of pipes and equipment or the deposition of solid phases in them. The first step is to determine the “Langelier Saturation Index“ and the “Ryznar Stability Index“. To assess the probability of deposition, the saturation indices for different solid phases are determined. The obtained results make it possible to classify the thermal waters in Sofia Valley according to the possibilities of negative processes in their use and to extract conclusions concerning the significance of the geological and hydrogeological factors. Keywords: thermal water, scaling, corrosion, saturation index, geochemical modelling, Sofia Valley INTRODUCTION The emergence and development of the city of Sofia is highly related to the thermal waters.
