  • THE BUG RIVER VALLEY for NATURE LOVERS Eastern Poland with a Difference
    THE BUG RIVER VALLEY FOR NATURE LOVERS Eastern Poland with a difference By Olivier Dochy, Belgium From 21st until 25th of June, I got the chance to join a study visit to the valley of the Bug river on the border of Poland and Belarus, in the far east of Poland. The purpose of this visit was tot evaluate local initiatives for sustainable tourism, oriented to "riverside & country- side" tourism. This visit was organized by a Flemish-Polish exchange project with the prov- inces of West-Vlaanderen en Lubelski (Poland), but also the flemish initiative vzw De Boot (www.deboot.be). My task was to evaluate which topics in the region could be interesting for nature-lovers in general and keen nature-specialists in particular, such as birders. Well, there is a lot ! It is not like the wild expanses of the well-known Biebrza valley or the untouched forests of Bia- lowieza, but rather a small-scale (agri)cultural landscape. But it still has all the biodiversity that once flourished in Western-Europe and now all (but) disappeared. Here follow a number of tips voor those who want to visit the region. There is a lot of in- formation great and small on the internet about the region, but you have to surf a lot to find it all. Anyway, there certainly is a lot to discover for naturalists with a pioneer drive ! You can find pictures of our visit here: http://picasaweb.google.com/Odee.fotos/BugRiverPoland?feat=directlink 1 WHERE IS IT ? The province of Lubelski is in the extreme east of Poland.

The aim of this paper is to outline the history of sport in Volyn (the area of the Volhynian province in the period of the Second Polish Republic) in the years 1921–1939. The Volhynian province was established on 19 February 1921. As of April 1, 1939 its area covered 35,754 km2 and had a population of 2,085,600 people (as of 9 December 1931). The population of Polish nationality was 16,6 %, of Ukrainian nationality – 68,4 %, of Jewish nationality – 9,9 %, of German nationality – 2,3 %, of Czech nationality – 1,5 %, of Russian nationality – 1,1 %, the remaining nationalities – 0,2 %. Townspeople of the province represented only 13,3 % of the population. The province consisted of the following counties: Dubno, Horochów, Kostopil, Kovel, Kremenets, Liuboml, Lutsk, Rivne, Sarny, Volodymyr and Zdolbuniv. The county of Sarny (formerly included in Polesia province) became a part of the Volhynian province in December 1930. Methods and Research Problems. As part of preparation of this study the following research methods have been used: analysis of historical sources, the method of synthesis and comparison.

  • Floods in Poland from 1946 to 2001 — Origin, Territorial Extent and Frequency
    Polish Geological Institute Special Papers, 15 (2004): 69–76 Proceedings of the Conference “Risks caused by the geodynamic phenomena in Europe” FLOODS IN POLAND FROM 1946 TO 2001 — ORIGIN, TERRITORIAL EXTENT AND FREQUENCY Andrzej DOBROWOLSKI1, Halina CZARNECKA1, Janusz OSTROWSKI1, Monika ZANIEWSKA1 Abstract. Based on the data concerning floods on the territory of Poland during the period 1946–2001, the reasons generating floods, the number of regional floods in the rivers catchment systems, and sites of local floods occurrence, were defined. Both types of floods: caused by riverbank overflows, and land flooding by rain or snow-melt water, were considered. In the most cases, the floods were caused by rainfall. They were connected with changes in the rainfall structure within Po- land. In each season of the year floods of various origin were observed. When the flood initiating factors appeared simulta- neously, the flood grew into a catastrophic size. In present analysis, for the first time in Poland, a large group of local floods has been distinguished. A special attention has been paid to floods caused by sudden flooding of the land (flash flood), including floods in the urban areas — more and more frequent during the recent years. The results of the analyses have provided important data for the assessment of the flood hazard in Poland, and for the creation of a complex flood control strategy for the whole country and/or for selected regions. Key words: flood, classification of floods, floods territorial extent, frequency of floods occurrence, torrential and rapid rain- fall, threat of life, material losses. Abstrakt. Na podstawie zbioru danych z lat 1946–2001 okreœlono przyczyny wystêpowania powodzi w Polsce, liczbê powodzi re- gionalnych w uk³adzie zlewni rzecznych oraz miejsca wyst¹pieñ powodzi lokalnych.

  • Sediment Yields and Denudation Rates in Poland
    Erosion and Sediment Yield: Global and Regional Perspectives (Proceedings of the Exeter Symposium, July 1996). IAHS Publ. no. 236, 1996. 133 Sediment yields and denudation rates in Poland JAN BRAÑSKI Research and Design Office HYDROS, ul. Somleñskiego 16 B m.58, 01 698 Warsaw, Poland KAZIMIERZ BANASIK Department of Hydraulic Structures, Warsaw Agricultural University SGGW, ul. Nowoursynowska 166, 02-787 Warsaw, Poland Abstract In Poland, there are many 40-year records of suspended sedi­ ment transport. These records have been used to estimate the intensity of denudation processes over the territory of Poland. The denudation index, expressed in t km’2 year’1, was calculated for many river basins, using data from 50 river gauging stations. The results are presented in the form of maps of denudation rates over the territory of Poland for four decades during the period 1951-1990. INTRODUCTION One of the first studies of the intensity of denudation processes in the Vistula river basin was carried out by Jarocki (1957). Based on hydrological measurements at the Tczew gauge during the period 1946-1953, he concluded that the average value of the denuda­ tion index (i.e. total sediment yield/river basin area) was 81 km’2 year’1. The first maps of the spatial differentiation of the denudation index across Poland were produced indirectly, by using a map of potential soil erosion published by Reniger (1959). Two versions of such maps were produced using this approach by Dçbski (1959) and Skibinski (1959). The results of Skibinski’s investigation, which dealt only with suspended sediment, in contrast to Dçbski’s investigation which also included bed load, showed considerable spatial differentiation of the denudation index, particularly in the zone of the south Polish uplands, with values ranging from ca 10 to 160 t km"2 year’1.

For instance, during the NKVD’s “Polish operation” of 1937 and 1938, the Communist regime exterminated about 85,000 Poles living at that time on the pre- war territory of the USSR.

  • Malacofauna in Oxbow Lakes of the Bug River Within the Nadbuĩaēski Landscape Park
    Teka Kom. Ochr. Kszt. ĝrod. Przyr. – OL PAN, 2013, 10, 132–142 MALACOFAUNA IN OXBOW LAKES OF THE BUG RIVER WITHIN THE NADBUĩAēSKI LANDSCAPE PARK Beata Jakubik, Krzysztof Lewandowski Institute of Biology, Siedlce University of Natural Sciences and Humanities B. Prusa str. 12, 08-110 Siedlce, [email protected], [email protected] Co-financed by National Fund for Environmental Protection and Water Management Summary. Malacofauna was studies in six oxbow lakes situated in the NadbuĪaĔski Landscape Park between the outlets of two confluents of the Bug River – the Liwiec and Nurzec. The water bodies are of different hydrological regime, from throughflow to isolated lakes. From 9 to 18 mollusc taxa were noted there. Oxbow lakes connected with the Bug had a higher species richness than those long ago permanently isolated from the river. Particularly large share in malacofauna of connected oxbow lakes had bivalves of the family Unionidae, Dreissena polymorpha and snails of the family Viviparidae. Protected species were found among studied molluscs. Studies carried out in two periods 2003–2004 and 2007–2011 showed small differences in species composition of malacofauna. Key words: NadbuĪaĔski Landscape Park, oxbow lakes, molluscs INTRODUCTION The NadbuĪaĔski Landscape Park occupies a 120-km long part of natural valley of the Bug River, where a meandering river channel is accompanied by numerous oxbow lakes [Dombrowski et al. 2002]. Ecology of these oxbow lakes was poorly recognised though the interest in such water bodies has markedly increased recently. This pertains mainly to rivers of eastern Poland – the Bug and Narew [see e.g. Górniak 2001, Biesiadka and Pakulnicka 2004, Jurkiewicz- -Karnkowska 2006, 2011, Lewandowski 2006, Strzaáek 2006, GruĪewski 2008].
