In this study, we used three perspectives (historical, geographical, and pedagogical) in order to analyze the development of geographical education and of the training of geography teachers in Romania, at the beginning of the communist period, under the influence of the Soviet education model (1948–1962). We underlined the role of the factors that determined major changes in the development of geographical education, on the basis of historical documents and of the most significant historical events. This research is relevant for geographers, historians, and educators, because we analyzed the development and features of the pre-university and university geographical education in Romania, at the beginning of the communist period, little known at the national and international levels.

The main problem in the Polish - German was the political situation in Europe that resulted after World War II. Germany was divided into two separate states the Federal Republic of Germany and German Democratic Republic. FRG was in the zone of influence of the Western Allies and the GDR in the Soviet sphere of influence. Poland found itself in the same block as the GDR, which provided opportunities in the postwar years to talk only with the German state. The subject is interesting because the position of Polish and German Central Europe as the two eternally conflicting and often hate their neighbors throughout history has made the events and history of these countries, it is interesting and exciting. The twentieth century is a period in which relations and hatred reached its apogee. The purpose of this paper is to outline the magnitude of the problems of complex political, economic and social Polish and German.

The Crisul Repede hydrographic basin possesses a valuable but poorly explored anthropic tourist potential. In this sense, the woodworking crafts (making tools and handicraft articles of wood) and the wooden cultural heritage components emerge (houses and household annexes, wooden gates, shadufs, wells with wooden wheels, traditional technical installations, wooden churches and wooden crosses). Taking into consideration the tourist’s will to know and understand the local culture and the traditional life of the inhabitants, it is necessary to find solutions for the tourist valorization of these components and to introduce these solutions in the development strategies of the involved administrative - territorial units. A proper tourist valorization of the wooden cultural heritage, which is, in fact, the most important cultural heritage of the inhabitants from the studied area, would ensure its sustainability course.

Naselje Zasavica u Bosanskoj Posavini administrativno pripada općini Bosanski Šamac, a crkveno župi Srca Isusova u Bosanskom Šamcu. Smještena je na desnoj obali rijeke Bosne, a od Save udaljena pet kilometara. Blizina Slavonije i migracije stanovništva s jedne i s druge strane Save u mnogome su utjecale na način života u Zasavici. Prema sjećanju starijih ljudi, Zasavica se prostirala između Miloševca i Balegovca (Novo Selo), Gornje Dubice i Bosanskog Šamca. Bilo je to prvo selo do Save. Prema navodima fra Grge Vilića, nekada se donji tok rijeke Bosne od Modriče do njezina utoka u Savu zvao Zasavlje. U narodnom pak sjećanju Zasavica postoji već oko tri stoljeća, odnosno od završetka Bečkoga rata (1683-1699). Međutim, u popisima iz 1743. i 1768. ona se kao naselje ne spominje.

This paper focuses on the ethnographic group called Hutsuls who live in Ukraine. This thesis presents their life, culture and life values. The main part is given to basic characteristics of this group. The main used techniques were semistandard interviews with the members of Hutsuls‘ ethnographic group and the next technique was questionnaire. The territory research was realized in western Ukraine in the Ivan-Frankov region. This thesis isn’t strictly dividend into theoretical and practical part because the theory is completed with answers from respondents. The aim of this thesis is to find out main aspects of Hutsuls‘ identity and which differences are between them and other ethnic groups

This paper analyzes the trajectory of the Mediterranean cyclone Yvette, pressure changes in its center and the evolution of selected meteorological fields during the life cycle of the cyclone. Geopotential, wind and divergence fields in the upper troposphere, vertical velocity, relative vorticity and wind fields in the middle troposphere as well as sea level pressure fields were analyzed. The cyclone lasted 6 days. The central pressure dropped to a minimum of 996 hPa. The biggest deepening rate reached ‒7hPa/12h. The impact of upper and mid-tropospheric circulation on the cyclone activity could be observed especially during cyclogenesis and maximum deepening stage.

The aim of the article is to show the significance of the morphogenetic processes which took place during the reactivation of cold stages during the Late Vistulian in the Łódź Region, in the light of the latest stratigraphical and paleaoenvironmental approach. The processes were activated in slope, fluvial and aeolian environments and operated under conditions of climatic unstability. The transitional nature of this period caused that processes characteristic of the periglacial environment, with the permafrost presence, overlapped with the moderate conditions. The cold periods were potentially favorable for morphogenetic activity, although their records are in the Łódź Region not as common as the effects of the processes that took place during earlier periods of the Vistulian.

The Warsaw-Berlin ice-marginal valley is very important element of the lowland landscape in the interior of Poland. This landform has com- posite geological structure and tessellated collocation of habitats. The valley bottom is wide (1,2–5 km) and composed of two surfaces: frag- ment of sandy terrace and flood plain. Peat bogs cover large areas in two sections of the valley bottom. These conditions had an influence on the development of settlement. The article presents the environmental conditions of small towns location in the bottom of ice-marginal val- ley. The topographical situations of ten small towns have been analyzed. An analysis of various elements of the natural environment shows that the main consideration in locating small towns was their geomorphological and hydrological situation. Most small towns were located on a high slope of the ice-marginal valley bottom, only one town was built on both river banks. The natural environment of ice-marginal val- ley bottom is a barrier to spatial development of small towns. Valuable natural environment is preserved in bottom of ice-marginal valley therefore the towns location was described in the context of protected areas (landscape park, Natura 2000 areas). Small towns and natural environment of the ice-marginal valley bottom create harmonious landscape.

This study is an attempt to determine the spatial variability of precipitation in the city of Lodz, within its administrative boundaries, and it’s a part of the larger project, which aims to develop an integrated river outflow model under a strong anthropopressure. Therefore, the hydrologic year was taken (from November 1 to October 31). To accomplish this task, the data recorded in 2010–2012 by various institutions operating within the agglomeration were used (fig. 1). Data strings from 24 rain gauges were used. However, the obtained sequences were characterized by discontinuity and the existence of various origin errors and different character. Therefore, the first task was to detect and fill the measurement gaps or to correct them. The ultimate aim of the present study was to obtain a cartographic representation of the spatial variability of precipitation in each year of the period 2010–2012 (fig. 3) and their average annual throughout this period (fig. 4), which made it possible to determine the spatial variability of water flow to the surface. Figs. 5 and 6 represent respectively the maximum daily rainfall and maximum hourly rainfall recorded in the investigated three-year period. Fig. 7 shows the average annual number of days with precipitation in the city area. Despite the very dense measurement network (which continues to be expanded) and a very high resolution of data, it was a difficult task, which required multi-step preparation and verification procedures. Data strings were incomplete or affected by errors of various kinds. One must therefore be aware of the imperfections of data collected automatically. Studies on spatial distribution of precipitation, their duration and intensity can be used to understand the causes and learn the scope of urban flooding. Creation of storm sewers control system which reacts in real-time to readings of automatic stations will avoid future losses related to sudden urban floods.

The article is a presentation of the process leading to the creation of a terrain model of selected areas in Central Poland before anthropogenic transformations which took place half a century ago. The aim of this study was to reconstruction Digital Elevation Models (called DEM) of the area, which is not currently available for research using modern methods of gathering altitude information due to anthropogenic transformation. The work shows the exact criteria for the selection of source materials along with an indication of the frame of reference date of the map and contour line distance. The main part of the article presents two examples – the largest complex of open mining and energy sector in Europe – KWB Bełchatów and Sulejów Reservoir as a water reservoir for the biggest city of Central Poland – Łódź – a detailed description of the methodology for dealing with historical maps, and the course of work from the selection of appropriate maps, through their scanning, calibration and vectorization to the final result, which is to obtain a terrain model, treated as a historical one. This study highlights the advisability of such activities and the use of DEM models in practice and in the analysis of directions and scale of anthropogenic transformations of historic and contemporary relief.

The main aim of this paper was an evaluation of the visual attractiveness of landscape of the Mroga valley and its surroundings in the administrative borders of the Dmosin commune. That evaluation was made by a photographic method of Cymerman and Hopfer (1988), modified by Hajnrych (2006). The method was based on an evaluation of 426 photographs taken at the 72 documentation sites located along the valley of Mroga river valley. On the basis of results of the assessment, it established five classes of visual attractiveness of the landscape were established, of which the largest share included areas of low and average visual attractiveness. Areas of high and very high visual attractiveness were few. A map of visual attractiveness of the landscape was made.
