  • Geothermal Development Opportunities in Oradea
    Orkustofnun, Grensasvegur 9, Reports 2016 IS-108 Reykjavik, Iceland Number 14 GEOTHERMAL DEVELOPMENT OPPORTUNITIES IN ORADEA Adrian George Foghiș Oradea Metropolitan Area Piata Unirii 1-3 P.O. Box 410100, Oradea ROMANIA [email protected] ABSTRACT Located in an area of sedimentary basins with low-enthalpy geothermal resources, Oradea city in Romania has a tradition of geothermal research and exploitation. Considering the objectives of the local public administration to develop further the utilization of geothermal resources, the report presents potential geothermal development opportunities in the area. The necessity of a more efficient use of the existing resources and infrastructure is underlined, plus the need for a strategic orientation towards the increase in geothermal exploitation opportunities. Optimization with sustainability as a key goal in the utilization of the geothermal resource in Oradea is of importance, as well as improving air quality by reducing burning of fossil fuels, lowering the heating cost for the population and improving energy safety by increasing usage of a local energy source. This can help Romania to fulfil the 20-20-20 goal of the EU, which can improve the local development of the area. The report presents a proposal of a geothermal road map to 2030, with 3 phases of development at metropolitan level. 1. INTRODUCTION The main topic of the report relates to geothermal development opportunities, as it considers the geothermal resource being one of the most important future inputs for energetic mix independence in the Oradea region. This implies also actions towards a more extensive use of geothermal energy. The general literature review about the benefits of geothermal power and energy shows, that geothermal resources are a cheap form of renewable energy, with many advantages proven over time.

  • Urban Sprawl and Residential Development in the Romanian Metropolitan Areas
    URBAN SPRAWL AND RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENT IN THE ROMANIAN METROPOLITAN AREAS INES GRIGORESCU*, BIANCA MITRICĂ**, IRENA MOCANU** , NICOLETA TICANĂ*** Key-words: suburbanization, residential patterns, urban sprawl, metropolitan areas, Romania. In Romania nearly 7,500,000 (34%) inhabitants are living in metropolitan areas. The socio-economic and political changes brought about by the post-communist period have reshaped the metropolitan landscape together with its functional and socio-spatial pattern triggering a wide range of transformations mainly related to urban sprawl process (suburbanization). As one of its major consequences, residential development had caused the deconcentration and the spatial redistribution of the population within metropolitan areas. The paper attempts to analyse the main suburbanization-related residential patterns in connection with their key driving forces (socio-political, demographic, economic, housing) and the associated environmental consequences in the Romanian metropolitan areas in terms of: urban (residential) sprawl, real-estate market dynamics, changes in spatial pattern of population, living floor dynamics, etc., with a special focus on the most significant metropolitan systems: Bucharest, Oradea, Iaşi and Constanţa. The present study will combine GIS computer mapping techniques with housing and demographic data and field surveys to identify the main urban-sprawl-related current residential patterns in the Romanian metropolitan areas and understand causes of change in order to predict how alternative policies will influence future spatial development. INTRODUCTION Over the past years most of European countries have faced the growing challenges of transformations in urban form and development patterns (Patacchini et al. 2009) through suburbanisation and densification processes (ESPON FOCI 2010). The conversion of agricultural and natural ecosystems as well as urban land-use changes have grown to be critical components of global change (Pouyt et al.

Hungarian Geographical Geographical Bulletin Bulletin 70 70 2021 (2021) (1) (1) 3–18. 3–183 Built-up area analysis using Sentinel data in metropolitan areas of Transylvania, Romania Constantin OŞLOBANU and Mircea ALEXE1 Abstract The anthropic and natural elements have become more closely monitored and analysed through the use of remote sensing and GIS applications. In this regard, the study aims to feature a different approach to produce more and more thematic information, focusing on the development of built-up areas. In this paper, multispec- tral images and Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) images were the basis of a wide range of proximity analyses. These allow the extraction of data about the distribution of built-up space on the areas with potential for economic and social development. Application of interferometric coherence and supervised classifications have been accomplished on various territories, such as metropolitan areas of the most developed region of Romania, more specifically Transylvania. The results indicate accuracy values, which can reach 94 per cent for multispectral datasets and 93 per cent for SAR datasets. The accuracy of resulted data will reveal a variety of city patterns, depending mainly on local features regarding natural and administrative environments. In this way, a comparison will be made between the accuracy of both datasets to provide an analysis of the manner of built-up areas distribution to assess the expansion of the studied metropolitan areas. Therefore, this study aims to apply well-established methods from the remote sensing field to enhance the information and datasets in some areas lacking recent research.

This is also claimed by the context of sustainable and responsible development through tourism of the territorially analyzed system. Key words: tourist system, statistical analysis, trends, prospects, spa * * * * * * INTRODUCTION The Băile Felix - 1 Mai tourist system includes all objects, processes and facts related to the tourist activity of Băile Felix, 1 Mai-Haieu, Sanmartin, Cordau and Rontau within its structure. The first forms of tourism in this area appeared in the localities 1 Mai and Felix. Over time they evolved to the current state of tourism resorts, one of national interest (Băile Felix), and the other of local interest (1 Mai). So around these tourist resorts a very complex and dynamic phenomenon has crystallized itself. The complexity of the tourism phenomenon is given, on the one hand, by the structural association in time and space, and on the other hand by the relationships that were established between its components.
