Mickiewicza 18, Szczecin ABSTRACT The aim of the study was to estimate the frequency and strength of storm surges in the Oder River estuary area during the 1993/94–2016/17 seasons. The analyses involved water level readings recorded at gauges located in the Oder River estuary area, including the coasts of the Pomeranian Bay (Zatoka Pomorska) and the Szczecin Lagoon (Zalew Szczeciński), as well as the downstream reach of the Oder. Recognition of temporal and spatial water level variations in the region under investigation revealed significant irregulari- ties in storm surge occurrence; periods with an increased frequency of freshets followed long periods with their scant occurrence. During the year, most of the storm events were observed between November and January. In the period discussed, the most severe and extensive storm surge in the Oder River estuary area was observed in October 2009. Very high freshets were recorded in November 1995, January 2012, and January 2017. The long-lasting and extensive high water events in the downstream reach of Oder River resulted from the progressive and prolonged increase in sea level in the Pomeranian Bay. Long-term per- sistence of high water levels in the Oder River estuary area were also registered when storm surges limited the outflow of the Oder River during snow-melt events, ice jams developing on the lower Oder at the same time. Finally, severe storm events were observed under the condition of the increased water volume in the Baltic Sea.

In cluster analysis, the grouping procedure research presented in this work was to estimate the frequency and intensity of storm surges in the Oder River’s estuary region in the seasons between 1993/94 and 2016/17. MATERIAL AND METHODS The analysis of storm surges was carried out based on water level readings from water gauges located in the Oder River estuary region (see: Figure 1) in the seasons from 1993/94 to 2016/17, designated after Sz- tobryn et al. (2005) from August to July of the follow- ing year. The collected material included daily water level readings in the lower reaches of the Oder River (in Gozdowice, Bielinek, Widuchowa, Gryfino, Pod- juchy (Szczecin Podjuchy) and Szczecin (Szczecin Most Długi), obtained from the IMGW-PIB website (https://dane.imgw.pl) and the RZGW in Szczecin. Information about water levels in the Szczecin La- goon (in Trzebież) and off the coast of the Pomera- nian Bay (in Świnoujście) was provided courtesy of the Maritime Authority in Szczecin In the Port Logs in Świnoujście, hydrological data were recorded every hour, while in Szczecin and Trzebież, it was recorded every four hours. Since May 2010, it has been possible to obtain hourly information on water levels from the entire Oder River estuary region from the IMGW-PIB website (http://monitor.pogodynka.pl).

Sewage treatment around the lagoon has been very much improved during the last years, but large amounts of sewage still enter the Oder river. Human path- ogenic viruses generally can be expected in all surface waters that are affected by municipal sewage. There is an increasing awareness that predisposed persons can be infected by a few infective units or even a single active virus. Another new aspect is, that at least polioviruses attached to suspend- ed particles can be infective for weeks and therefore be transported over long distances. Therefore, the highest risk of virus inputs arise from the large amounts of untreated sewage of the city of Szcze- cin (Poland), which are released into the river Oder and transported to the lagoon and the Baltic Sea. Summer tourism is the most important economical factor in this coastal region and further growth is expected.

  • 1 Co? Was? German-Polish Linguistic Attitudes in Frankfurt (Oder)
    Co? Was ? German-Polish Linguistic Attitudes in Frankfurt (Oder) Megan Clark Senior Linguistics Thesis Bryn Mawr College 2010 In this study I analyze the linguistic attitudes held by Polish and German speakers in the border towns of Frankfurt an der Oder, Germany and Słubice, Poland, held together by a cross-border university. I consider the historical background in the relationship between the two communities, including but not limited to the effect of Germany and Poland’s separate entrances into the European Union and Schengen zone, which have divided the two countries until recently, as well as the adoption of the Euro in both Germany and, later, Poland. With consideration of this history, I explore the concept of linguistic attitudes in other border communities to mark parallels and differences in the attitudes of speakers on each side of the border, most notably different because of the presence of the university on both sides of the dividing river. I supplement this research with a study conducted on speakers themselves within each side of the community to explore the underlying thoughts and ideas behind attitudes toward speakers of the other language, investigating why so many Polish speakers are fluent in German, while only a few German students endeavor to learn Polish. The research we have conducted here explores a very important aspect of language attitudes as a proxy for European geo-political relations as exemplified in the role of Poland as an outlier in the European Union due to its late joining and reluctant acceptance of the Euro. Though student relations on the border are strong, the heart of Słubice remains untouched by German residents, despite full osmosis of Polish citizens into the heart of Frankfurt.

  • Gryfino, 26.06.2017 R. Factors Governing How and Where Waterbirds
    Gryfino, 26.06.2017 r. Factors governing how and where waterbirds forage in the Odra River Estuary (NW Poland) during the wintering season Dominik Marchowski The Odra estuary has been known for years as a site where large numbers of waterbirds congregate during the migration and wintering periods. The first accurate data were collected by Prof. Włodzimierz Meissner from the University of Gdansk:. He and his team carried out aerial counts of the entire estuary in three winter seasons: 1990/91, 1991/92 and 1992/93. It turned out that the Szczecin Lagoon, the Kamień Lagoon and Lake Dąbie are Poland's largest wintering areas for Greater Scaup Aythya marila (hereafter Scaup), Smew Mergellus albellus and Goosander Mergus merganser. In the 1990/91 winter season, for example, 96% of the Goosanders wintering on the Polish coast were present in the Odra estuary, and a single flock observed in December 1990 consisted of 60 000 birds. Moreover, 80% of Scaup and 54% of Smew wintering on the Polish coast did so in the Odra estuary. Prof. Meissner's team has also demonstrated the importance of the estuary to several other waterbird species, including Tufted Duck A. fuligula, Pochard A. ferina, Goldeneye Bucephala clangula and Coot Fulica atra. No data on the numbers of wintering birds were gathered for the next few years. Since the turn of the century, however, the West Pomeranian Nature Society (ZTP) has been monitoring (counting) these wintering populations on a regular basis, and the results from seasons 2001 – 2008 have been published in the ZTP’s bulletins and in the journal Ornis Polonica.

  • Modeling Water Exchange in the Oder River Mouth Area
    Oceanological and Hydrobiological Studies International Journal of Oceanography and Hydrobiology Vol. XXXVI, No.1 Institute of Oceanography (55-67) University of Gdańsk 2007 Received: July 01, 2006 DOI 10.2478/v10009-007-0002-9 Research Paper Accepted: February 13, 2007 Modeling water exchange in the Oder River mouth area Halina Kowalewska-Kalkowska1, Marek Kowalewski2 1Institute of Marine Sciences, University of Szczecin ul. Wąska 13, 71-415 Szczecin, Poland 2Institute of Oceanography, University of Gdańsk al. Marszałka J. Piłsudskiego 46, 81-378 Gdynia, Poland Key words: numerical modeling, water exchange, Oder River mouth Abstract A three-dimensional operational hydrodynamic model of the Baltic Sea (M3D_UG) developed based on the Princeton Ocean Model (POM) was applied to model water exchange in the Oder River mouth area. Due to wind-driven back flow in the Oder mouth, a simplified operational model of river discharge was also developed based on the water budget in a stream channel. Linking the Oder discharge and Baltic Sea models into a single system allowed simulating hydrodynamic conditions in the Szczecin Lagoon and the Pomeranian Bay. Since the model adequately approximates hydrodynamic variability, it is a reliable tool for modeling water exchange in the Oder River mouth area and for assessing Oder water spread in the Baltic Sea. 1 Corresponding author: [email protected] Copyright© by Institute of Oceanography, University of Gdańsk, Poland www.oandhs.org 56 H. Kowalewska-Kalkowska, M. Kowalewski INTRODUCTION Situated in the southern Baltic Sea, the Oder River mouth is an area where fresh and brackish waters mix. In its downstream reaches, the Oder River discharges into the Szczecin Lagoon, which is a coastal water body of approximately 680 km2 with a mean depth of 3.8 m.

    The Polish Baltic Sea Offshore Wind Potential: When Will the Dedicated Support Scheme Mechanism for Offshore Wind in Poland Be Presented? by Henry Davey, Robert Ryszard Broom and Igor Hanas Poland has huge potential in the Baltic Sea with 10GW of offshore Figure 1: Poland’s energy mix in 2017 (by source in wind envisaged to be built by 2040 to help reduce carbon emissions public supply of electricity). and fill a potential capacity gap created by no new coal generation being built to accommodate growing demand. A comprehensive offshore wind act with direct support for the first wave of projects is eagerly anticipated by the Polish offshore wind industry to kick- start the first wave of prospective projects. During an Economic Congress held in mid-May, in Katowice, Poland, officials from Poland’s Ministry of Energy presented on ways to develop Poland’s renewable energy sources sector that match EU requirements and are reflective of the Polish energy sector needs and structure. Offshore wind was highlighted as a key component of Poland’s future generation mix as part of its transition towards renewable energy diversification. We take a look at the prospects for offshore wind in Poland and the latest developments for this technology in the Polish energy sector. Energy Policy of Poland Until 2040 According to the Polish government’s Draft Energy Policy of Poland until 2040 (which contains the main strategic objectives for the country’s energy sector) (the Energy Policy),1 apart from nuclear power plants and photovoltaics, offshore wind energy is to be a key component in the Polish energy transformation.

  • Water Quality in the Central Reach of the Ina River (Western Pomerania, Poland)
    Pol. J. Environ. Stud. Vol. 24, No. 1 (2015), 207-214 DOI: 10.15244/pjoes/26971 Original Research Water Quality in the Central Reach of the Ina River (Western Pomerania, Poland) Arkadiusz Nędzarek*, Małgorzata Bonisławska, Agnieszka Tórz, Anna Gajek, Marlena Socha, Filip Bronisław Harasimiuk Department of Water Sozology, West Pomeranian University of Technology in Szczecin, K. Królewicza 4, 71-550 Szczecin, Poland Received: 23 April 2014 Accepted: 8 July 2014 Abstract Our paper presents a study on the middle reaches of the Ina River. Select physical and chemical indica- tors were analyzed in order to evaluate water quality. It was determined that the studied river was subjected to strong anthropopressure, and factors declassifying river water included CODCr, TP, general hardness, and alcalinity. A high level of biogenic elements was additionally increased by pollution discharged to the river in the proximity of a factory specializing in agricultural production and processing food and agricultural produce near the town of Stargard Szczeciński. The process of self-purification was noted, which can be considered as a factor modifying changes and dynamics of nitrogen and phosphorus in the studied river, leading to an inter- nal enrichment with biogenic elements. Those processes were multi-directional as confirmed by PCA analy- sis, where component 1 accounted for just 36.7% of the total variance, and the total variance exceeding 90.0% was only noted for 7 components. Keywords: water pollution, nutrients, organic matter, Ina River Introduction include agriculture, industry, and urbanization. The supply of pollution from these sources affects water quality in the Physical and chemical properties of river water are river and its biocenosis.
