The main topics presented in this paper are: 1) the dynamics of emissions from fixed and mobile pollution sources; 2) spatial and branch profile of emissions generated by fixed pollution sources: 3) existing problems in evaluation and monitoring of emissions sources; 4) the implementation of objectives on adaptation to climate change and low emission economy. The volume of emissions from fixed sources is conditioned by the size of districts and of their urban centers, by the number and capacities of sources from energetics, agri-food complex and fuel stations, and by level of emissions monitoring of environmental authorities. In the majority districts and economic activities is found a oscillatory dynamics of emissions, on the background of a general growth trend.

However, in some administrative areas there are less than 20% of female councillors. Only 3 women were elected District Chairpersons - one in each of three regions: North, Centre and South, which is only 8.8% of total number of Chairpersons. Population Size and Structure About 30% of the population live both in the Northern and Central Zones, over 15% live in the Southern Zone and the population of Gagauzia is about 5% of the total population of the country.

Most Fulbrighters have been appreciated by Moldovans, and most Fulbrighters have appreciated and enjoyed their stay in Moldova. Of course, each Fulbrighter experiences Moldova differently. The reasons for this vary. Location is one reason. Living in Chisinau is different than living in a smaller city. This Guide cannot take into account all of the variables or even most of them. It does not try to. Instead, it more modestly offers basic, broadly applicable information and suggestions. We hope this information and these suggestions help you. If the information you are seeking is not here, note your question on a margin of this Guide and ask it at the Pre- Departure Orientation. By giving you this Guide in advance of the PDO, we hope to make the PDO as effective and efficient as possible.

    Total Runoff of Surface Waters in New Climatic Conditions on the Republic of Moldova’S Territory

    DOI 10.2478/pesd-2018-0007 PESD, VOL. 12, no. 1, 2018 TOTAL RUNOFF OF SURFACE WATERS IN NEW CLIMATIC CONDITIONS ON THE REPUBLIC OF MOLDOVA’S TERRITORY Duca Gheorghe1, Nedealcov Maria1, Ivanov Violeta Key words: Water resources, climatic changes, hydrographical basin, intensity and frequency climatic parameters. Abstract. Although it is considered that the socio-economic impact over the last decades on surface water quality is significant, the role of changing regional climate that is manifested by the intensification of desertification process is crucial. In this context, it is important to know the current trends of change in total runoff of surface of surface waters in the context of increase of desertification degree of the regional climate attested in recent years. Introduction Water resources and their quality are in continuous decrease, and these aspects constitute a severe constraining factor for both our country and on the international level, especially if we take into account the increase of aridity due to global warming, forecasted by certain scenarios and climatic models (Albu, 2009, Nedealcov, 2012, Anuar, 2015, 2016, Bejan et al, 2017). These scenarios estimate that droughts would persist in the regions with critical climate in Europe, especially in Southern Europe, as well as in Northern America, and the above-mentioned regions would suffer from severe droughts, heat spells, water deficiency and decrease in agricultural production. Another scenarios evaluate the impact of global climatic changes in Republic of Moldova, demonstrating that the drought would be more pronounced during the vegetation period in southern and south-eastern part of the country (Nedealcov, 2012), which does not come into contradiction with the estimations conducted for the southern regions in Europe (Marinov, 1964, Madjar et al, 1995).

SUMMARY This report, covering the period from October 25 through November 8, 2010, describes the electoral environment and reviews from a legal perspective the recent developments in the election campaign, and the performance of the electoral competitors and of the local and election authorities. The election campaign is becoming increasingly intense, with cases of intimidation and abuse being registered both against electoral competitors and voters. While engaged in various campaigning activities, some candidates resort to the misuse of administrative resources and offering of “electoral gifts”. Promo-LEX salutes the impartiality of the election authorities in performing their duties. The Central Election Commission registered until the end of the authorization period 40 electoral competitors and issued warnings to the contenders that violated the rules.
