With technical and financial support from the PDF-A, the municipalities of the Barycz Valley defined priorities and actions that integrate resource use and biodiversity protection into social and economic development of the Barycz Valley. These agreed priorities and actions constitute the “Regional Sustainable Development Strategy”, a planning document that puts in place an integrated ecosystem management approach to the use of land, water and biodiversity resources in the Barycz Valley. The MSP will co-finance the execution of priority activities of the RSDS in the areas of (i) nature tourism; (ii) decreasing pollution loads into international water systems; (iii) nature-friendly fish farming; (iv) conservation of globally significant meadows and (v) public support for biodiversity conservation. These activities show clear global benefits in the area of biodiversity and international waters. -

Numbers and Distribution
Numbers and distribution The brown bear used to occur throughout the whole Europe. In the beginning of XIX century its range in Poland had already contracted and was limited to the Carpathians, the Białowieża Forest, the currently non-existent Łódzka Forest and to Kielce region (Jakubiec and Buchalczyk 1987). After World War I bears occurred only in the Eastern Carpathians. In the 1950’ the brown bears was found only in the Tatra Mountains and the Bieszczady Mountains and its population size was estimated at 10-14 individuals only (Buchalczyk 1980). In the following years a slow population increase was observed in the Polish Carpathians. Currently the brown bear’s range in Poland is limited to the Carpathians and stretches along the Polish-Slovak border. Occasional observations are made in the Sudetes where one migrating individual was recorded in the 1990’ (Jakubiec 1995). The total range of the brown bear in Poland is estimated at 5400-6500 km2. The area available for bears based on the predicative model for the habitat is much larger and may reach 68 700km2 (within which approx. 29000 km2 offers suitable breeding sites) (Fernández et al. 2012). Currently experts estimate the numbers of bears in Poland at merely 95 individuals. There are 3 main area of bear occurrence: 1. the Bieszczady Mountains, the Low Beskids, The Sącz Beskids and the Gorce Mountains, 2. the Tatra Mountains, 3. the Silesian Beskids and the Żywiec Beskids. It must be noted, however, that bears only breed in the Bieszczady Mountains, the Tatra Mountains and in the Żywiec Beskids. Poland is the north limit range of the Carpathian population (Swenson et al. -

Classification of Synoptic Conditions of Summer Floods in Polish

Tomczyk 1 and Dominika Jasik 2 1 Department of Climatology, Adam Mickiewicz University, 61-680 Pozna´n,Poland 2 Department of Hydrology and Water Management, Adam Mickiewicz University, 61-680 Pozna´n,Poland * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +48-61-829-6267 Received: 24 May 2019; Accepted: 12 July 2019; Published: 13 July 2019 Abstract: Atmospheric processes leading to extreme floods in the Polish Sudeten Mountains were described in this study. A direct impact of heavy precipitation on extremely high runoff episodes was confirmed, and an essential role of synoptic conditions in triggering abundant rainfall was proved. Synoptic conditions preceding each flood event were taken into consideration and the evolution of the pressure field as well as the moisture transport was investigated using the anomaly-based method. Maps of anomalies, constructed for the days prior to floods, enabled recognizing an early formation of negative centers of sea level pressure and also allowed distinguishing areas of positive departures of precipitable water content over Europe. Five cyclonic circulation patterns of different origin, and various extent and intensity, responsible for heavy, flood-triggering precipitation in the Sudetes, were assigned. Most rain-bringing cyclones form over the Mediterranean Sea and some of them over the Atlantic Ocean. A meridional southern transport of moisture was identified in most of the analyzed cases of floods. Recognizing the specific meteorological mechanisms of precipitation enhancement, involving evolution of pressure patterns, change in atmospheric moisture and occurrence of precipitation may contribute to a better understanding of the atmospheric forcing of floods in mountain areas and to improve predicting thereof. -
Conditions of Fish Farming in Natura 2000 Areas, Based on the Example of the Catchment of Barycz

Fish farming operations conducted in this area led to the creation of a cultural landscape characterised by unique natural values, similar to the natural landscape. Approx. 240 species of birds are observed here, of which 170 are nesting species. Due to its natural values, this area has been subject to natural reserve protec- tion as part of the Landscape Park “Dolina Baryczy” (the Barycz Valley). It was entered in the “Living Lakes” list and it is protected under the Ramsar Convention as well as under the European nature protection network Natura 2000. The established forms of nature protection mean the introduction of a certain binding regime, pursuant to which the economic activity conducted in protected areas must take into account the prohibi- tions and orders introduced by documents that establish the said forms of protection. -

Like most of similar communities on the so-called Recovered Territories, it started to form aft er 1945 on “raw roots” aft er the German inhabitants of the area were removed. Th ey were replaced with people moved from the former eastern provinces of the Second Republic, among others from Kołomyja, but also from regions of central Poland. Also Poles returning from Germany, France and Romania sett led there. Th e area taken over by new sett lers had not been a cultural desert. Th e remains of material culture, mainly German, and the traditions of weaving and textile industry, reaching back to the Middle Ages, formed a huge potential for creating a vision of local cultural heritage for the newly forming community. Th ey also brought, however, their own notions of cultural heritage to the new area and, in addition, became subject to political pressure of recognising its “Piast” character as the “Recovered Territories”. Th e present re- search is an att empt to fi nd out to what extent that potential was utilised by new sett lers, who were carriers of various regional (or even national) cultures, for their creation of visions of the future, as well as how the dynamics of those transformations evolved. -
Subcarpathian Voivodeship)
Project co-financed by the Minister of Economic Development Business and Local Government, Finance, Economy, Innovation BUSINESS AND LOCAL GOVERNMENT, FINANCE, ECONOMY, INNOVATIONS We are pleased to present to you a publication in which we describe the Pol- ish investment and export potential. In the first part, we present the regions that, according to the results of regional analyses, generate the highest percentage of domestic exports or show continuous development in this direction. The second part of the publication is dedicated to the presentation of Polish companies that are conquering the Polish export market and focusing largely on innovation in their business models. The voivodeships we present include, among others, the Masovian and Silesian regions, which generate almost a quarter of national exports. The value of the ex- port market in these regions as well as in Greater Poland exceeds EUR 20 billion. In recent years, other regions, such as Lower Silesian Voivodeship, have recorded the greatest increase in the value of exported goods. Zygmunt Berdychowski Chairman of the Economic Forum The synthetic summaries include a compendium of knowledge about the Programme Council voivodeships, thanks to which a potential investor or entrepreneur who wants to start or develop a business in Poland will find information about the location, net- work of connections, transport accessibility, level of urbanization, sectoral structure of enterprises, employment structure, percentages regarding projects with foreign capital. Of course, we also point out the innovation of a given voivodeship and smart specializations of the region. They include, among others, modern medicine, information technologies and energy. In the second part, you will find profiles of over 20 selected Polish companies that want to expand their cooperation with foreign partners.
