Jana 22, 31-018, Kraków: Poland e-mail: [email protected] Abstract Land use and land cover changes (LULC) and their impact on potential soil erosion, road density as transfer routes of material and water to channels as well as channel level changes were studied in three catchments (~20 km2 each) in the central part of the Polish Western Carpathians in 1975-2015. It was hypothesised that short-term LULC changes during transition from a centrally planned to a free-market economy are sufficient to modify selected elements of the environment and that these changes can be identified in a measurable way. The analysis of aerial photographs and socio-economic data indicates that during the investigated period, the forest area increased by 20-27%, with a continuous decrease of cultivated land by 89-93% in the three catch- ments. LULC changes were accompanied by continuous population density growth by 29-50% and a decrease of the population dependent only on agriculture to less than 5%. Analyses confirmed the hypothesis that the environment was significantly modified due to the LULC changes. Abandonment of cultivated land, forest succession and a decrease in used road density, have resulted in lower efficiency of slope wash and sediment transport within the 4th-order catchments.

    The Małopolska Region is a strong economic centre and, without a doubt, a perfect place to develop business – it can be confidently said that we are one of the most dynamically developing regions in Poland and Central Europe. Thanks to massive support to entrepreneurship as well as optimum use of European Funds and other public resources, Małopolska – as the first Polish region – has been awarded the title of the European Entrepreneurial Region 2016 – awarded by the Committee of Regions. A reasoned strategy of development of Małopolska is advantageous for entrepreneurs who expect concrete solutions and competent support of local government and business environment institutions. Access to qualified staff, economic safety, rich real estate offer and high quality of life create a very unique investment climate of the region, which attracts foreign investors. Therefore, it is not surprising that our region has been assessed high in annual rankings of investment attractiveness. Małopolska strengthens its economic potential by creating conditions for development of priority sectors of the region, such as IT and ICT sectors, chemical sector, sector of sustainable energy, biotechnological and life science sector, metalworking sector and sector of creative industries. Thanks to dynamic progress in these specialties, we build our competitive advantage over our competitors both on the national and international market.

Ten najdłuższy gorczański potok swój początek bierze pod Turbaczem i po pokonaniu ok. 33 km kamienistego koryta wpada w nurt Du- najca. Wyjątkowo dogodne położenie komunikacyjne w połączeniu z urodą doliny spowodowały, że już od dawna stała się ona celem odwiedzin licznych turystów, szukających wrażeń estetycznych i odpoczynku w kontakcie z przyrodą. Ścieżka edukacyjna daje możliwość poznania ciekawych zagadnień związa- nych z ochroną przyrody i dziedzictwa kulturowego Gorców na obszarze utwo- rzonego w 1981 r. Gorczańskiego Parku Narodowego. Wytyczona została wzdłuż głównej drogi dolinowej oraz drogą stokową i leśną ścieżką, które trawersują część zachodniego zbocza Gorca Kamienickiego. Droga dolinowa, po której poprowa- dzono część ścieżki edukacyjnej – między polaną Trusiówka a Papieżówką (od przy- stanku nr 1 do 7) – została pokryta jeszcze przed utworzeniem Parku nawierzchnią bitumiczną.

Nową formą ochrony przyrody funkcjonującą na tym terenie, związaną z przystą- pieniem Polski do Unii Europejskiej, są dwa chronione obszary o randze europejskiej.

  • Selected Geosites Within a Proposed New Trans-Border Pieniny Geopark (Polish-Slovakian)
    Acta Geoturistica volume 5 (2014), number 2, 46-63 Selected geosites within a proposed new trans-border Pieniny Geopark (Polish-Slovakian) JAN GOLONKA, MAREK DOKTOR, KRZYSZTOF MIŚKIEWICZ, MICHAŁ KROBICKI, and TADEUSZ SŁOMKA Department of General Geology and Geotourism Faculty of Geology, Geophysics and Environmental Protection, AGH University of Science and Technology, A.Mickiewicza 30 Ave., 30-059 Kraków, Poland (Corresponding author e-mail: [email protected]) ABSTRACT Only one geopark in Poland is on UNESCO list – Muskau Arc Geopark but one of the first propositions was very interesting cross-border Polish-Slovakia geopark Pieniny. The proposed geopark includes the central, most interesting part of the Pieniny Klippen Belt and the adjacent areas of the Central Carpathian Paleogene and Western Flysch Carpathians. The specificity of the Pieniny Klippen Belt is that it is a unique area with a complex geological structure resulting from its multi-stage history. The geopark’s core belongs to the Polish Pieniny National Park (Pieniński Park Narodowy) and its Slovak equivalent the Pieninský Narodný Park. The primary task in the framework of Geopark project will be an inventory and valorization of geosites. The authors attempt to provide the review of the most important and significant geotouristic attraction within the proposed. The selected objects include The Rogoźnik Rock, the Białka River water gap at Krempachy, Snozka Pass, Wżar Mountain, the Czorsztyn Castle, the Red Monastery (Červený Kláštor - Czerwony Klasztor), the Dunajec River Gorge, Szczawnica, the Zaskalnik Waterfall, and the Homole Gorge. Key words: Pieniny Mts., geotourism, geological inventory and valorization, geosites INTRODUCTION of the first propositions was cross-border Polish-Slovakia geopark Pieniny.

The Gorce Mountains were formed as an isolated massif with Mt Turbacz (1310 m a.s.l.) as the highest summit. River channels are remodeled by sudden and high-level floods with the critical impact of log jams. The main processes influencing hillslope relief were landsliding, run-off, and tree uprooting. The review suggests the following issues await for studies: a long-term landscape evolution, moni- toring of morphogenetic processes, and origin of landslides with their contribution to denudation rates. Also, current biomorphodynamics (uprooting process) has not been sufficiently studied. Key words Geomorphology • relief • landslides • hillslope processes • fluvial processes • human impact • biomorphodynamics Introduction climate. Moreover, geological evolution and geological structure of this part of the The Gorce Mts. massif occupies a special Western Carpathians played a vital role place on the geomorphological map of Poland.

  • The Oldest Images of the Tatras
    THE OLDEST IMAGES OF THE TATRAS Antoni Nowak The notion of culture is generally understood as the accumulated material and mental goods which people create and transmit from generation to generation. Natural phenomena, including elements of the landscape, are understood to exist independently of people, beyond the realm of culture. It is we who interfere in the natural environment and reshape it to fit our needs, or as is so often now the case, destroy it. Over the course of centuries we have created thousands of terms regarding our natural surroundings in the mountains. Some of them are prosaic, such as “nice weather”, ”beautiful”, “dangerous”, or “forbidding”. Poets have often expressed their fascination with the mountains, and painters have depicted their majesty and beauty on canvas. From where I live, on the southern slopes of the Gorce mountains just above Nowy Targ, there is a beautiful panoramic view of the Tatras. It is the same view that charmed the first explorers and travelers who came this way. In favorable autumn weather you can see the mountains which have been at times called the Śnieżne, the Sarmackie, the Krępak, or simply the Carpathians in all their glory. From early childhood I was fascinated to find out how the mountains look close up and what lies beyond them, on the Slovakian side. When my curiosity was finally satisfied years later, I realized that this fascination with the mountains, with mountaineering, and the fashion for spending free time in the mountains, winter sports and alpinism, and above all literature and art devoted to the topic of the mountains, is a relatively new phenomenon.
