  • Save the Children Romania Branches
    Ana Maria Gabriela Mihãescu Alexandrescu President Executive President Save the Children has been promoting and defending children’s rights in Romania since 1990 In 2008, we expanded our activities, the number of children with and for whom we worked increased and the organization registered a financial increase by 38% compared to the previous year. After 18 years of continuous activity in the field of the rights of the child, we were happy to see that Romanian children are the most aware about their rights among all children in the European Union countries. Thus, as a result of the survey conducted in the 27 member countries by the European Commission (Eurobarometer – The Rights of the Child, Analytical Report, April 2008), Romanian children have an awareness level of 85% compared to the European average of 67%. Regarding the protection of children’s rights, Romanian children are the toughest critics. We have been trying all these years to work with children to become aware about their rights and responsibilities. This year, over 5,000 children were involved in informational and educational activities, as well as various debates on their rights. Teachers were trained in order to introduce in as many schools as possible the optional subject “The Child’s Rights” for the 6th grade. We considered necessary to get involved in drafting a European Strategy on Child’s Rights and in providing inputs for the legislation and European policies on child protection against violence, sexual abuse and abuse on Internet, protection of asylum seeker children, of those in emergency situations or living in countries affected by armed conflicts.

  • Gis Approach in Assessing the Rural Space Accessibility – Case Study: Vaslui County, Romania
    Geographia Technica, Vol. 09, Issue 1, 2014, pp 20 to 30 GIS APPROACH IN ASSESSING THE RURAL SPACE ACCESSIBILITY – CASE STUDY: VASLUI COUNTY, ROMANIA Ema CORODESCU 1 ABSTRACT: The present article focuses on quantifying the rural space accessibility in Vaslui County, Romania, by employing GIS techniques, aiming to propose a new accessibility index. In order to reach this purpose, the accessibility index took into consideration variables related to distance, slope of the routes and public transport availability, which were calculated and spatially modeled. Finally, the employed methodology emphasized a particular spatial pattern of the general accessibility in Vaslui County, denoting important disparities. Key-words: network distance, routes average slope, public transport, Synthetic Accessibility Index, spatial inequalities. 1. INTRODUCTION Accessibility is a key concept of the actual territorial planning strategies as it represents a major driving force of the socio-economic development of a region (Farrington & Farrington, 2005; World Bank, 2008). Due to its complexity and its various approaches, the accessibility is a notion subjected to more definitions (Roșu, Blăgeanu & Iacob, 2013), but it generally represents the potential of a population for reaching spatially distributed services, being a conjunction between transportation network and the geographical distribution of the activities (Paez, Scott & Morency, 2012). In order to briefly present the main approaches of the accessibility through different pieces of research, a first binary delimitation should be mentioned, objective accessibility vs. self-perceived or self-reported one; many studies focused on comparing these two main types of accessibility (Curl, Nelson & Anable, 2013; Hawthome & Kwan, 2013) etc. Nevertheless, the greatest part of the research as well as the present study is oriented to quantify the objective accessibility.

The approach of this article is to bring forward the long-term consequences visible in two counties from East Romania named Bacău and Vaslui, counties very different in terms of development, due to declining birth rate, a phenomenon triggered by over two decades, through the impact of emigration, but also as a mentality transformation of a society. Thereby, those two counties suffer a double loss of young population: from one side because of the young people that choose to emigrate and from the other side because of decreasing birth rate given that young people leave behind these counties, and mainly poor rural areas, choosing to live abroad.

  • Neutron Activation Analysis of Some Neolithic Copper Objects
    Neutron activation analysis of some Neolithic copper objects Agata Olariu National Institute for Physisc and Nuclear Engineering P.O. Box Mg-6 76900, Bucharest Magurele, Romania August 11, 2018 1 Introduction In this paper we have analyzed by neutron activation analysis (NAA) a number of 93 items of Neolithic copper from National Museum of History from Bucharest, having the provenance from Moldavia region. In the Table 1 it is shown the list of analyzed objects. arXiv:nucl-ex/9908023v1 31 Aug 1999 2 Experimental method of analysis We have applied the NAA, the particular features of the method encountered for ancient copper being also detailed in reference 1. Sampling. First some corroded parts have been removed from the surface of copper objects, the corroded material having a totally different elemental composition from that of the body of the object. Then samples of 10-50 mg have been cut with a hard vidia knife from the object body and after that washed with different solvents: 1 acetone, benzene, ether to avoid the impurities from the surface of the item and the protective varnish, added in the museum. Irradiation of medium periods. Samples have been put in polyethylene foils and irradiated at the rabbit system of the nuclear reactor VVR-S, from NIPNE Magurele, Bucharest at the flux of ≈1.25x1012neutrons/cm2·sec, for 30 minutes. Copper being in majority it was strongly activated so that the induced radioactivity in the samples could be measured only after 4-5 days . Natural cooper has 2 isotopes: Cu63 and 65 64 Cu which by the reaction (n, γ) give the radioisotopes Cu T1/2=12.74 h and 66 Cu with T1/2=5.10 min.

  • Study on the Non-Compliant Landfill from Bârlad in Vaslui County
    Ovidius University Annals Series: Civil Engineering, Year 21, 2019 DOI: 10.2478/ouacsce-2019-0002 Study on the Non-Compliant Landfill from Bârlad in Vaslui County Biali Gabriela, Schneider Petra ________________________________________________ Abstract – This paper presents a part of a comprehensive study on non-compliant landfill in Vaslui County. We have been tracking the subsidences taking place in the body of waste dumps and the amount of gas removed to take the best post-closure monitoring measures. In order to trace the behavior regarding the subsidence in the landfill body, there were placed in the ground 11 milestones/topographic landmarks of plastics, painted in white and red to be easily identified visually. Keeping them on the same positions made possible the analysis in the present study. Topographic surveys in the ground were performed once a month between April 2014 and September 2015. The results, interpretations and proposed solutions are presented in this paper. Keywords – landfill, modeling, settling. _____________________________________________________________________ 1. INTRODUCTION The analysis of the issue of landfill compaction has aroused numerous reactions over the last thirty years. Therefore, one should not be in the least surprised of the impressive number of laws and applications found in literature, which are rather aimed at modeling landfill compaction than at controlling this phenomenon. In order to facilitate their comparison with the observance of numerous criteria, it is important to show the findings of the research conducted, based on a particular type of chart. It includes four parts (assumptions, model, parameters and assessment) and it allows better determination of the advantages and disadvantages of each model.

  • Aspects of the Diversity of Bird Fauna from Racova Valley (Vaslui County, Romania)
    Muzeul Olteniei Craiova. Oltenia. Studii şi comunicări. Ştiinţele Naturii. Tom. 31, No. 2/2015 ISSN 1454-6914 ASPECTS OF THE DIVERSITY OF BIRD FAUNA FROM RACOVA VALLEY (VASLUI COUNTY, ROMANIA) GACHE Carmen, IGNAT Alina Elena Abstract. Our study is the first one focused on the diversity and present status of bird fauna from the territory of Racova Valley (Vaslui County). Our monitoring activity began during the spring of 2010 year around Pușcași reservoir, next years, being extended to other reservoirs forest ecosystems and open lands from this region. We identified 157 bird species, the highest diversity being recorded in the forest ecosystems. The breeding bird fauna include 106 species, 97 being regular breeding. The aquatic and semi- aquatic bird species present a low diversity, while the most important effectives for these groups were recorded during the migration time. We present estimated effectives for the migration period, breeding season and wintering time, but also the phenology status of the bird species that need special conservation measures, being included in the Annexe 1 of the Birds Directive. Keywords: bird fauna, diversity, effectives, habitats, Racova Valley. Rezumat. Aspecte ale diversității avifaunei de pe Valea Racovei (județul Vaslui, România). Studiul nostru este primul ce urmărește diversitatea și starea actuală a avifaunei de pe teritoriul Văii Racovei (județul Vaslui). Activitatea de monitorizare a fost inițiată în primăvara anului 2010 în perimetrul acumulării Pușcași, ulterior, fiind extinsă la celelalte acumulări acvatice, suprafețele forestiere și teritoriile deschise din regiune. Au fost identificate 157 de specii de păsări, cea mai mare diversitate fiind întâlnită în ecosistemul forestier. Avifauna clocitoare este reprezentată de 106 specii, dintre care 97 sunt cert clocitoare.
