Former administrave divisions of Poland Almost every country in the world manages its own, internal administrative division. Its purpose is to make country‐level management easier. Currently, Poland is divided to 16 provinces (voivodeships). Each province is divided to counties (poviats), and each county is divided to communes/municipalities. This administrative division was introduced in 1999. But, previous administrative division was different. After the Second World War, in June 1946, 14 provinces were established. Another level of administrative division included counties (poviats), and the lowest one included communes and cities. In 1950, the number of provinces was increased to 17 as some large provinces in the West Lands were divided. In 1955, communes were abandoned, and subsequently replaced by gatherings. In 1973, this process was reversed – gathering were replaced by communes. In 1975, 49 provinces were established with simultaneous dissolution of counties (poviats).

Modern administrave division of Poland Currently, a three level administrative division (territorial division) is used. On the 1st of January 1999, 16 provinces (first level) were established. Each province was divided to counties (second level) which in turn were divided to communes/municipalities (third level). The current administrative division has been presented on e‐books. Province maps displaying division to counes and communes/municipalies The names of provinces often originate from historical or geographical macroregions. Despite being proper names, in Polish these are written with no capital letter, e.g. “województwo mazowieckie” meaning the Masovian Province. The names of counties and communes usually originate from their capitals (major cities/towns), however, the name of any county is an adjective (e.g. “powiat oleśnicki” meaning the Oleśnica County), and the name of a commune/municipality is a noun (e.g. “gmina Dobroszyce” meaning the Dobroszyce Commune). Therefore, in Polish names of counties contain no capital letter, yet names of communes do. In the nomenclature of counties one may found some exceptions, such as “powiat tatrzański” (Tatra County) with its capital in Zakopane or “powiat bieszczadzki” (Bieszczady County) with its capital in Ustrzyki Górne. There are also names originating from a pair of towns, such as “powiat strzelecko‐drezdenecki” (the Strzelece‐Drezdenko County) or “powiat ropczycko‐sędziszowski” (the Ropczyce‐Sędziszów County). There are also names of county capitals which make it quite hard to form a suitable name in adjective form — this is why there is “powiat suski” (the Sucha Beskidzka County) or “powiat niżański” (the Nisko County). Geographical locaon of my city/town and my region As you might remember from the primary school, Poland is divided into following geographical macroregions: the mountains (e.g. Sudetes), highlands (e.g. the Lublin Highlands), lowlands (e.g. the Silesian Lowlands), lakelands (e.g. the Masurian Lakeland) etc. During geography lessons, we will often determine location of a certain object in relation to these macroregions as well as in relation to other geographical objects, such as rivers, lakes or cities/towns. Describing geographical location of the object, we will also use primary and secondary directions as well as geographical coordinates. Hypsometric maps of provinces have been presented on e‐books. Observe the material. It presents three level administrative division. Task 2 Using the knowledge gained during the lesson, do the following exercises. Exercise 1 Exercise 2 Match a city or a town with the correct province (voivodeship). Biała Podlaska, Zielona Góra, Ełk, Przemyśl, Kędzierzyn-Koźle, Tarnów, Słupsk, Suwałki, Płock Warmian- Masurian province Podlaskie province Lublin province Lubusz province Masovian province Lesser Poland province Opole province Subcarpathian province Pomeranian province Exercise 3 Indicate the coreect answer. In the West Pomerania province, the following cies and towns are located: Szczecin, Koszalin, Pyrzyce, Gryfice Szczecinek, Ustka, Starogard Szczeciński Kostrzyn, Police, Darłowo, Koszalin Kołobrzeg, Lębork, Wałcz, Szczecin Exercise 4 Source: Aotearoa, licencja: CC BY 3.0.

  • Polytrichum Formosum and Vaccinium Myrtillus As Phytoindicators Of
    Chapter Polytrichum formosum and Vaccinium myrtillus as Phytoindicators of Pollutants from Long-Range Emissions of Environmentally Important Protected Areas (The Tatra National Park, the Central Western Carpathians, Poland) Joanna Korzeniowska Abstract The study determined the influence of altitude on the content of heavy metals in selected plant species of the Tatra National Park (TNP). The metals (Cd, Cr, Cu, Ni, Pb, and Zn) were identified in two species of plants, i.e., in the moss (Polytrichum formosum Hedw.) and in the blueberry leaves (Vaccinium myrtillus L.). Plant sam- ples were collected in two test areas every 100 meters of altitude of the area, starting from 1,000 m above sea level in the Lake Morskie Oko test area and from 1,100 m above sea level in the Kasprowy Wierch test area, and ending at 1,400 m above sea level for Lake Morskie Oko and 1,550 m above sea level for Kasprowy Wierch. The two test areas are different from each other in terms of natural and physico-geographical conditions (geological structure, landform, climatic condi- tions, etc.). The conducted research shows that the content of heavy metals in the studied species of plants increases with the altitude above sea level. Both P. formosum Hedw and V. myrtillus L. can be good phytoindicators in mountainous areas. In the tested plant species, the contents of heavy metals were also found to be higher than the natural contents, which is most likely related to long-range emis- sion. Long-distance transport of pollutants causes that important natural protected areas, such as the Tatra National Park, are exposed to excessive pollution, including the accumulation of heavy metals in plants.

  • Molecular Detection of Tick-Borne Pathogens in Ticks
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Molecular detection of tick‑borne pathogens in ticks collected from pets in selected mountainous areas of Tatra County (Tatra Mountains, Poland) Anna Kocoń 1*, Marek Asman 2, Magdalena Nowak‑Chmura 1, Joanna Witecka 2, Małgorzata Kłyś 3 & Krzysztof Solarz 2 The mountainous and foothill areas, in which the city of Zakopane, the capital of Tatra County, is located are characterized by continuous weather changes, lower air temperature, persistent snow cover, and poorer vegetation than in the lowlands. Ixodes ricinus and Ixodes hexagonus are vectors of tick‑borne diseases and play an important role in the persistence of tick‑borne diseases. The aim of the study was to determine the risk of exposure of domestic cats and dogs to the attacks of Ixodid ticks, to tick‑borne infections with Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato, Anaplasma phagocytophilum, Babesia microti and Toxoplasma gondii in the city of Zakopane and the surrounding area. In 2017–2018 ticks were collected from a total of 10 domestic cats and 88 domestic dogs. Selected pathogens of tick- borne diseases were detected by PCR and nested PCR.
