The Case of the Vistula River in Warsaw
Vol. 14/2010 pp. 203-212 Joanna Angiel University of Warsaw Faculty of Geography and Regional Studies Department of Geographical Education e-mail: [email protected] RESTORING THE SOCIAL VALUE OF RIVERS THROUGH EDUCATION: THE CASE OF THE VISTULA RIVER IN WARSAW Abstract: The article discusses the values of the Vistula River in Poland’s capital city, Warsaw. The author presents the results of studies identifying residents’ perceptions of the river and outlines local community processes that aim to restore the river’s social value, notably through education. Key words: public awareness, Vistula River, river value, perception, geography education. INTRODUCTION People’s relationship with rivers, and more broadly speaking with nature, has changed over time. That relationship is dependent on attitudes towards the natural environment, the cultural sphere in which an individual grows up and develops, as well as individuals’ worldviews, social awareness, and the system of received values, among other factors. (Ostrowska, 1994; Pulinowa, 1996). For many pre-agrarian societies rivers held religious, or spiritual values. They provided water, food, and protection. With the rise of agrarian societies, people remained closely tied to rivers, but the relation began to include the intensified use of waterways, chiefly for agriculture. The industrial period saw the beginnings of large-scale “industrial transfor- mations of nature,” including rivers. Deprived of their sacred status and, even, of common respect, rivers often served as channels of industrial waste disposal and recipients of urban sewage. In the present period of socio-eco- nomic development, increasingly more attention is given to the state of the environment, including rivers. -
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. -

water Article Modeling and Monitoring of Hydrodynamics and Surface Water Quality in the Sulejów Dam Reservoir, Poland Aleksandra Ziemi ´nska-Stolarska 1,* and Magdalena Kempa 2 1 Faculty of Process and Environmental Engineering, Lodz University of Technology, Wólcza´nska213 Str., 90-924 Lodz, Poland 2 Norwegian Institute for Water Research, Gaustadalléen 21 Str., 0349 Oslo, Norway; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] Abstract: The aim of this work is to evaluate core variables of the ecological potential of the Sulejów Reservoir (temperature distribution, flow velocities, and concentrations of selected indicators, e.g., phosphates, nitrates, the abundance of phytoplankton) using a three-dimensional hydrodynamic model, GEMSS-HDM (generalized environmental modeling system for surface waters), coupled with a water quality model, WASP EUTRO (GEMSS-WQM). The monitoring data necessary to build the model were obtained from two multiparameter probes that were submerged in two locations in the Sulejów Reservoir. An ADCP current profiler was used to collect data for hydrodynamic model calibration and verification. Total error between computed and measured velocity was estimated at 10–15%. A high concentration of chlorophyll-a during the vegetation season of 2015 (0.02 mg/L) was coupled with high water temperature (above 25 ◦C) and low concentrations of biogenic compounds (phosphorus and nitrogen at 0.02 and 0.001 mg/L, respectively). In 2015, NO3-N was the limiting nutrient in the Sulejów Reservoir. Maximum growth of algae was observed in June and July 2015 (0.02 mg/L chla) along the entire length of the reservoir; algae bloom volume reduction was observed Citation: Ziemi´nska-Stolarska,A.; in September (0.004 mg/L chla). -
Reservoir Sedimentation Problems in the Vistula River Basin, Poland
Erosion and Sediment Yield: Global and Regional Perspectives (Proceedings of the Exeter Symposium July 1996). IAHSPubl.no. 236, 1996. 501 Reservoir sedimentation problems in the Vistula River basin, Poland ADAM LAJCZAK Institute of Nature Conservation, Polish Academy of Sciences, Lubicz str. 46, 31-512 Cracow, Poland Abstract Existing knowledge of the geometric and hydrological characteristics of existing and planned dam reservoirs in the Vistula River basin, Poland, and of the spatial differentiation of suspended sediment and bed load transport in the area provides a basis for proposing appropriate locations for planned reservoirs in the river basin. If the location and the order of building of the planned dams conform to these proposals, this will result in slow silting of the reservoirs with advantages both for the use of the river as a waterway and for maximizing the useful life of the reservoirs. INTRODUCTION The correct planning of the development multipurpose reservoir systems in large river basins, where the rivers are characterized by different hydrological regimes and different suspended sediment loads and bed load yields, presents an important problem for fluvial sedimentology. Estimation of the useful lifetime of reservoirs of very diffe rent initial geometric and hydrological characteristics, when their functions are fulfilled, must be a prelude to the correct location of planned structures. This time period, which has been estimated for every reservoir studied according to the concept proposed, should not be shorter than the amortization time of the reservoir. The above procedure can be undertaken if the following information is available: (a) the average annual suspended sediment load and bed load as measured at successive gauging stations on the river and its tributaries over a suitable period of time; (b) the initial geometric and hydrological characteristics of existing and planned reservoirs; and (c) the initial trap efficiency for the suspended sediment load of every reservoir studied. -

Wlodarczyk & R. Wenne Sea Fisheries Institute, ul. Kollataja I, 81-332 Gdynia, Poland *Fax: (+48 58) 620-28-31 E-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT Genetic differentiation among the populations of sea trout, Salrna trutta m. trutta, spawning in five Polish rivers has been investigated by RFLP ofPCR-amplified NADH-dehydrogenase 1 and 5/6 segments ofmtDNA. Total of 16 composite haplotypes were identified and the number of haplotypes per population ranged from 6 to 8. Three haplotypes were shared by all five populations and had similar frequencies ranging from 0.100 to 0.450. One haplotype was observed in 4 populations, two haplotypes in 3 populations and one haplotype was shared by 2 populations. Nine Tare.haplotypes were found in 4 populations, at frequencies ranging from 0.025 to 0.075. The highest number of rare haplotypes, three, was observed in the samples from the rivers Slupia and Pars((ta.. No rare haplotypes were detected in the river Wieprza. All populations were fixed at one morph for the ND-I segment digested with Hin!1. Key words: mtDNA, population genetics, RFLP, Salrna trutta m. trutta, sea trout. INTRODUCTION The sea trout ( Salrna trutta m. trutta) is an anadromous salmonid species of high commercial value, widely distributed in Europe. Its freshwater counterpart, the brown trout, has been extensively researched, and a number of studies have shown a strong population subdivision within the species (reviewed by Ferguson, 1989). -

The transformation of state-controlled management system required adjustment of various socio- economic and spatial structures to the new rules of market economy. This process, being based on transformation of the previous structures created in the centrally- steered management system and on the development of new structures, is being observed in many places in Poland, also in rural areas in the Świętokrzyskie Province. One of the most popular forms of development of rural areas is agri- tourism at present. The study attempts to assess the influence of geographical envi- ronment on agritourism development potential in the Świętokrzyskie Province. The analysis of elements of natural environment and tourist amenities makes it possible to evaluate how attractive rural areas are from the standpoint of agri- tourism development. The study gives numerical attractiveness indicators to show how rural areas are diversified in their likelihood of success for agritourism business Key words: rural areas, tourist attractiveness, tourist amenities INTRODUCTION In recent years the multifunctional development of rural areas has been discussed more frequently than before. -

The study of the perception of this river, conducted in 2006-2007, concerned, among other things, the symbolism of the Vistula, its role in nature and landscape of Poland, as well as the course of the river flowing through Poland. It was ascertained that most students perceive the Vistula as a symbol of Poland or the longest river in Poland, but they do not notice, for instance, its ecological role, although they are aware of its role in the landscape of Poland. The results of the study determine the direction and the topics of the geographic education concerning the Vistula river in Polish schools. Key words: the Vistula river; Poland’s landscapes; Poland’s symbols; perception; geo- graphical education INTRODUCTION The Vistula river is the longest river in Poland. It flows out of the mountainside of the Barania Góra in the Beskid Śląski Mountains, in the south of Poland, and flows into the Baltic Sea (into the Gdańsk Bay) in the north of Poland. Its average flow is ca. 1000 m3s-1. The river is 1068 km long, from the sources to the outlet; it flows through the territory of Poland only; the surface of its catchments area is ca. -
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.
