Box 653, 6701 Szeged, Hungary, [email protected], [email protected] dated: 12 June 2015 Abstract In 2014, urban climate monitoring systems were established in two neighboring European cities (Novi Sad, Serbia; Szeged, Hungary) based on Local Climate Zones (LCZ) classification system, GIS model calculations and fieldwork. Seven built LCZ types in the built-up area of Novi Sad (112 km2) and two LCZ land cover types in nonurban environment in the vicinity of the city were delineated. Urban climate monitoring system in Novi Sad consists of 27 stations equipped with air temperature and relative humidity sensors distributed across all LCZs. This system provided 10-minute measured air temperature and relative humidity data since June 2014. Human comfort observations in different LCZs of the city and its surroundings were investigated for warmest (tropical) and coldest (icy) day in 2014 in Novi Sad. Thermal comfort was assessed with the application of the Physiologically Equivalent Temperature (PET) thermal index. Differences in PET index amongst LCZs can be as high as 10-12 ºC during nocturnal hours when comparing built-up areas of the city (e.

  • Potentials of Renewable Energy Sources in the Republic of Serbia
    POTENTIALS OF RENEWABLE ENERGY SOURCES IN THE REPUBLIC OF SERBIA WITH A DETAILED REVIEW OF THE EXPLOITATION OF GEOTHERMAL RESOURCES IN THE AUTONOMOUS PROVINCE OF VOJVODINA Zoran Stipi ć City of Subotica Urban Planning Institute, Trg Republike 16, Subotica, Serbia [email protected] Slobodan Vidovi ć Tehnoproing , Gogoljeva 13,Novi Sad, Serbia, [email protected] Mom čilo Spasojevi ć Faculty of Technical Sciences, Trg D.Obradovi ća 6, Novi Sad, Serbia, [email protected] Abstract: Energy supply is one of the basic issues in the contemporary world’s sustainable development. By adopting the Kyoto Protocol and implementing its mechanisms, it is expected that the use of conventional energy sources shall stabilise and decrease on global level. The European Union’s legal framework, through its appropriate directives, sets very clear objectives for the use of renewable energy sources for member states. Serbia is a country with significant potentials in renewable energy sources, which are, regretfully, underused. Renewable energy source potentials are featured by very favourable indicators in matters of both capacity and distribution. The status is especially favourable in the field of geothermal energy potentials in the Autonomous Province of Vojvodina, situated in the Pannonian Basin, where there are significant sources of this fuel. The paper presents the basic forms and characteristics of renewable energy sources in Serbia and provides an overview of the possibilities for their use. Key words: Renewable energy sources, potentials, capacities, resources, geothermal energy, Serbia, Vojvodina. 1. INTRODUCTION Solving global energy problems implies an interdisciplinary approach and considering the issues from different perspectives. Decreasing overall energy consumption, increasing energy efficiency, modernising the installation, using alternative energy sources and adopting and implementing a number of legal regulations and international covenants are the points of departure in solving this exceptionally complex issue.

  • Growth of Pike (Esox Lucius L.) in the Section of the Tisza River at Tiszafüred
    Tiscia (Szeged) Vol. XVIII, pp. 103—112 (1983) GROWTH OF PIKE (ESOX LUCIUS L.) IN THE SECTION OF THE TISZA RIVER AT TISZAFÜRED Á. HARKA Kossuth Lajos Secondary School, Tiszafüred (Received January 25, 1981) Abstract On the basis of measurements on 204 fish specimens the following relationship was established between the standard body length and body weight of pike: lg W = -4.811+2.9301gLc, where W=body weight in g, Lc = body length in mm. The following relation was found between standard body length and total body length: Lt = 5.651+1.110 Lc The determination of the age of pike as well as its body length in the single years was per- formed on the basis of the growth-rings of scales. Growth can be well described by Bertalanffy's equation: 01695 t + 0 5 1,= 1008.6E1 — e- < ' >]x, where l, = standard body length of pike at the age of "t", e = the base of natural logarithm. · Introduction Pike has been a very important fish species especially in the tributaries and stagnant waters of the Tisza, and with the establishing of reservoirs it has become increasingly frequent also in the main branch of the river. Therefore it may be impor- tant from economical aspect to obtain knowledge about its growth which has not been studied to date Hungarian waters. This paper reports on growth studies performed on behalf of the Fisheries Research Institute, Szarvas in the section of the Tisza in the water storage area of Kisköre, and presents at the same time the first information in connection with the growth of pike in Hungary.
