Development Prospects of Tourist Passenger Shipping in the Polish Part of the Vistula Lagoon
sustainability Article Development Prospects of Tourist Passenger Shipping in the Polish Part of the Vistula Lagoon Krystian Puzdrakiewicz * and Marcin Połom * Division of Regional Development, Faculty of Oceanography and Geography, University of Gda´nsk, 80-309 Gda´nsk,Poland * Correspondence: [email protected] (K.P.); [email protected] (M.P.) Abstract: The Vistula Lagoon is a cross-border area with high natural values and a developing market of tourist services. Passenger shipping is an important part of local tourism, but ship owners are insufficiently involved in planning processes and their views on creating shipping development are underrepresented. The article aims to compare the vision of the development of passenger shipping in the Polish part of the Vistula Lagoon between local governments creating the spatial policy and ship owners offering transport services. We have made an attempt to verify the development prospects. The collation of these visions was based primarily on the qualitative analysis of the content of planning and strategic documents (desk research method) and a survey conducted among all six ship owners. Thanks to the comparative analysis, it was possible to show similarities and differences and to indicate recommendations. The paper presents review of the available literature on the subject, thanks to which the research area was identified as unique in Europe. On the one hand, it is a valuable natural area, which is an important tourist destination, on the other hand, there are organizational and infrastructural limitations in meeting the needs of tourists. Then, field research was conducted, unpublished materials were collected, and surveys were conducted with the Citation: Puzdrakiewicz, K.; Połom, M. -
Alosa Fallax (Lacépède, 1803) in German and Adjacent Waters of the Baltic Sea
Not to be cited without prior reference to the authors ICES Annual Science Conference 2004 CM 2004/S:08 Use of Estuarine and Freshwaters Habitats and the way that Freshwater and Diadromous Fish use Them Status of the anadromous twaite shad Alosa fallax (Lacépède, 1803) in German and adjacent waters of the Baltic Sea R. Thiel, P. Riel, R. Neumann and H. M. Winkler ABSTRACT The status of twaite shad in German and adjacent waters of the Baltic Sea was investigated based on the analysis of ichthyological museum collections, historical commercial catch statistics, recent catch records from commercial and recreational fishery and research hauls with different trawls from August 2003 to July 2004. 42 % of the historical records of twaite shad were estimated in subdivisions 24, whereas 21 % were registered in subdivision 26. A. fallax was mainly distributed within the areas of Pommeranian Bay and Pommeranian coast, Szczecin Lagoon, Bay of Gdańsk, Vistula Spit, Vistula Lagoon, Kuršiu Spit and Kuršiu Lagoon. Twaite shad was an important commercial species in those areas during the last quarter of the 19th and the first half of the 20th century. The annual catches of twaite shad in the Southern Baltic declined sharply In the 1950s. The mean annual catch of twaite shad amounted to 90 982 kg for the entire Southern Baltic Sea between 1891 and 1960. About 47.9 % of that value were contributed by subdivision 26, comprising the areas of Gdańsk Bay, Vistula Lagoon/Vistula Spit and Kuršiu Lagoon/Kuršiu Spit. The proportion of subdivision 24, comprising the areas of Pommeranian Bay/Pommeranian coast and Szczecin Lagoon, amounted to 37.5 %. -
The Results of Palynological Investigations As the Evidence of Development of the Rzucewo Culture Neolithic Settlement on the Coast of the Puck Lagoon
Polish Geological Institute Special Papers, 16 (2005): 65–70 Proceedings of the Workshop “Reconstruction of Quaternary palaeoclimate and palaeoenvironments and their abrupt changes” THE RESULTS OF PALYNOLOGICAL INVESTIGATIONS AS THE EVIDENCE OF DEVELOPMENT OF THE RZUCEWO CULTURE NEOLITHIC SETTLEMENT ON THE COAST OF THE PUCK LAGOON Gra¿yna MIOTK-SZPIGANOWICZ1, Danuta KRÓL2 Abstract. Archaeological investigations have been performed for years in the vicinity of the Rzucewo Headland, on the wes- tern shore of the Puck Lagoon. The best known site of the Neolithic Rzucewo Culture is located there. Also palynological in- vestigation was performed earlier in this area. The present article is an attempt at recapitulating the obtained information. Materials for the palynological tests came both from organic sediments, which occur on the shore of the present Lagoon, and directly from archaeological excavations. The obtained results of both the palynological and archaeological tests made it possible to find out that the earliest traces of the economic activity of humans in this area belong to settlement which was earlier than that of the Rzucewo Culture. This Paraneolithic settlement is dated at the end of the Atlantic Period. The area under investigation was covered then by peatlands and lake, which determined that the main economic activity of humans was fishing, and animal husbandry done on a small scale was only an extra activity of the then population. Archaeologically dated at 4400–3700 years BP, the settlement of the Rzucewo Culture developed when the sea transgressed into the area of the present Puck Lagoon. The results of the research shows that in the economic activity of the inhabitants of the settlement both animal husbandry and farming were treated as matters of secondary importance, while fishing and seal hunting were the main activities. -

Marszałka Piłsudskiego 46, PL–81–378 Gdynia, Poland; e-mail: [email protected] Received 21 February 2005, revised 10 October 2005, accepted 20 October 2005. Abstract An ecohydrodynamic model was used to investigate the effect of the Hel upwelling on nutrient concentrations, primary production and phytoplankton biomass. The model covered the whole Baltic Sea with a 5 NM grid spacing and the Gulf of Gdańskwith a 1 NM grid spacing. Validation indicated good agreement between model results and measurements in the GdańskDeep, and slightly weakerconcord for the Hel upwelling area. The vertical nutrient fluxes associated with up- and downwelling in the Hel region were simulated for two 30-day periods in 2000. The nutrient input resulting from long-term upwelling is comparable to the load carried into the Gulf of Gdańskby the Vistula (Wisła), the largest river in the vicinity. Performed at times when upwelling was almost permanent, the simulations showed elevated nutrient concentrations in surface waters. This was especially distinct in spring when primary production and phytoplankton biomass were both higher. In late summer, however, upwelling caused primary production to decrease, despite the elevated nutrient levels. * This research was supported by the State Committee for Scientific Research, Poland (grant No 6 P04G 061 17).

Impact of the Artificial Strait in the Vistula Spit on the Hydrodynamics
water Article Impact of the Artificial Strait in the Vistula Spit on the Hydrodynamics of the Vistula Lagoon (Baltic Sea) Michał Szydłowski * , Tomasz Kolerski and Piotr Zima Faculty of Civil and Environmental Engineering, Gda´nskUniversity of Technology, Narutowicza 11/12, 80-233 Gda´nsk,Poland; [email protected] (T.K.); [email protected] (P.Z.) * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +48-58-347-1809 Received: 25 March 2019; Accepted: 8 May 2019; Published: 10 May 2019 Abstract: In the Vistula Lagoon, storm surges are induced by variable sea levels in the Gulf of Gda´nsk and wind action. The rising of the water level in the southern part of the basin, exceeding 1.0 m above mean sea level, can be dangerous for the lowland area of Zuławy˙ Elbl ˛askie,causing the inundation of the polders adjacent to the lagoon. One of the potential possibilities to limit the flood risk is to decrease the water level in the lagoon during strong storm surges by opening an artificial canal to join the lagoon with the Gulf of Gda´nsk.The decision to build a new strait in the Vistula Spit was made in 2017. In order to analyze the impact of the artificial connection between the sea and the lagoon during periods of high water stages in the southern part the lagoon, mathematical modelling of the hydrodynamics of the Vistula Lagoon is required. This paper presents the shallow water equations (SWEs) model adapted to simulate storm surges driven by the wind and sea tides, and the numerical results obtained for the present (without the new strait) and future (with the new strait) configuration of the Vistula Lagoon. -
