Its catchment area has been heavily polluted by anthropogenic emis- sions. Our data document an intensive anthropogenic impact on the abundance of heavy metals in bottom sediments of the middle part of the Odra. Normalized heavy metal concentrations in sediments and indices of geoaccumulation (Igeo) indicate that this area is polluted by various metals, especially mercury, cadmium and zinc. The ranges of their concentrations vary as follows: Hg 0.12-2.99 mg/kg, Cd 2.93-7.87 mg/kg, Pb 21.2-163 mg/kg, Cu 11.5-88.3 mg/kg, Zn 28.0-471 mg/kg, Cr 1.57-47.5 mg/kg, Ni 5.10-19.1 mg/kg, Fe 1493-37972 mg/kg and Mn 47.6-1242 mg/kg. Keywords: mercury, heavy metals, bottom sediments, Odra River Introduction The Odra River basin is divided into the upper course (source - Wroclaw, 21.4% of total area), the The Odra, as one of the five longest rivers in Europe, is mid-altitude course (Wroclaw-Warta, 54.6% of to- a system transporting and collecting a large number of sub- tal area), and the lower course (Warta-Szczecinski stances from natural and anthropogenic sources.

The basin the Odra catchment, pollution comes from mining is situated in the industrialized and highly populated centre of coal, copper, lead and zinc and sulphur as well as of Europe, shared by Poland (89 %), the Czech Republic (6 heavy industry.

    2019 Special edition PISMO CODZIENNE Independence Day, November 11, 2019 FREE AGAIN! THEY FOUGHT FOR INDEPENDENT POLAND Dear Readers, The day of November 11 – the National Independence Day – is not accidentally associated with the Polish military uni- form, its symbolism and traditions. Polish soldiers on almost all World War I fronts “threw on the pyre their lives’ fate.” When the Polish occupiers were drown- ing in disasters and revolutions, white- and-red flags were fluttering on Polish streets to mark Poland’s independence. The Republic of Poland was back on the map of Europe, although this was only the beginning of the battle for its bor- ders. Józef Piłsudski in his first order to the united Polish Army shared his feeling of joy with his soldiers: “I’m taking com- mand of you, Soldiers, at the time when the heart of every Pole is beating stron- O God! Thou who from on high ger and faster, when the children of our land have seen the sun of freedom in all its Hurls thine arrows at the defenders of the nation, glory.” He never promised them any bat- We beseech Thee, through this heap of bones! tle laurels or well-merited rest, though. On the contrary – he appealed to them Let the sun shine on us, at least in death! for even greater effort in their service May the daylight shine forth from heaven’s bright portals! for Poland. And they never let him down Let us be seen - as we die! when in 1920 Poland had to defend not only its own sovereignty, but also entire Europe against flooding bolshevism.

  • 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.

  • Rekreacyjne Walory Rzeki Dunajec W Obszarze Pienińskiego Parku Narodowego
    PRACE NAUKOWE Akademii im. Jana Długosza w Częstochowie Seria: Kultura Fizyczna 2009, z. VIII Wiesław Pilis∗ Marek Szambelan* Rekreacyjne walory rzeki Dunajec w obszarze Pienińskiego Parku Narodowego Streszczenie W 1932 roku utworzono Park Narodowy w Pieninach, a po kilkunastu latach przekształcono go w Pieniński Park Narodowy. Główną atrakcją turystyczną te- goż parku jest przełom Dunajca i spływ tratwami odbywający się po nim. Ta forma rekreacji jest dobrze znana nie tylko w Polsce, ale i w Europie. Trwający kilka godzin spływ urzeka bogactwem i różnorodnością natury. Podczas trzech godzin spływu turyści mogą podziwiać przełom i najbliższe szczyty, tj. Faci- miech, Grabczychę, Trzy Korony, Sokolicę. Te niezwykłe atrakcje powodują, że udział w spływie wzrasta z roku na rok i w roku 1967 liczba uczestników osią- gnęła 200 000 osób. Obecnie obserwuje się jej stabilizację na niższym poziomie. Wszystkie te „cuda” natury i turystyczne atrakcje przyciągały w to miejsce zna- nych ludzi, takich jak Marię Konopnicką czy Adama Asnyka, co było czynni- kiem promującym. Chociaż podobne imprezy są organizowane w Europie na większych rzekach, spływ na Dunajcu ma swoją specyficzną atmosferę i okre- ślony rodzaj wielbicieli. Słowa kluczowe: turystyka, rzeka Dunajec, park narodowy, spływ. 1. Wstęp Dnia 23 maja 1932 roku, na wniosek Państwowej Rady Ochrony Przyrody pod przewodnictwem prof. dr. Władysława Szafera, minister rolnictwa podpisał ∗ ALMAMER, Wyższa Szkoła Ekonomiczna w Warszawie. 242 Wiesław Pilis, Marek Szambelan rozporządzenie o utworzeniu z dniem 1 czerwca 1932 roku „Parku Narodowego w Pieninach” (PNP) o powierzchni 7,36 km2. Działania te poprzedzone były utworzeniem prywatnego rezerwatu o powierzchni 0,75 km2 założonego wokół ruin zamku w Czorsztynie, a następnie wykupywaniem na własność Skarbu Pań- stwa gruntów prywatnych, głównie w masywie Trzech Koron, pod utworzenie w Polsce pierwszego parku narodowego.

  • Probabilistic Approach of the Upper and Middle Odra Basin Daily Rainfall Modeling

Grunwaldzki 24, 50-363 Wroclaw, Poland Abstract. The aim of this study was to obtain the maximum daily rainfall descriptions based on 9 probability distributions in 12 meteorological stations located in Upper and Middle Odra river basin. Analysis included long-term period from 1961 to 2010. Regarding to AIC and BIC informational criterions Gamma distribution that appeared to be best fitted probability distribution to measurement rainfall data series. For several stations, Pareto, Weibull and generalized exponential distributions were also possible to use. For practical purposes it is necessary to carry out a similar analysis for much shorter rainfall intervals. The final evaluation of the suitability of individual probability distributions for constructing maximum rainfall probabilistic models requires further research. 1 Introduction The reliability of urban drainage systems is not fully achievable due to the random nature of precipitation. However, it must be designed in the way that fulfill the contemporary standards of drainage, which is defined as the adaptation of the system to receive the maximum (predicted) storm water streams with a frequency of appearance equal to the acceptable (socially acceptable) frequency of spillage into the terrain [1].
