Możliwości powstania nowych uzdrowisk na obszarach wiejskich. Kontekst krajowy i regionalny

Several villages in Poland make efforts to obtain the status of a health resort. It is connected not only with limitations in conducting business activity, resulting from the necessity of maintaining high quality of the environment, but also brings certain material and non-material benefits to the commune. It is precisely because of the benefits that the status of a health resort is increasingly becoming a desirable status for many communes with health resort values. The aim of the research, the results of which are presented in this article, was to identify the condition and possibilities of developing a spa function in rural areas in Poland. In particular, attention was paid to the Lublin Voivodeship. For this purpose, selected planning and strategic documents of the municipalities typed as potential spas in the Spatial Development Plan of the Lublin Voivodeship were analyzed. An important role was played by case study on the background of the presentation of the context of development of health resorts in Poland, based on literature, legal acts and statistical data.Kilkanaście miejscowości w Polsce od kilku lat czyni starania o uzyskanie statusu uzdrowiska. Wiąże się to nie tylko z ograniczeniami w prowadzeniu działalności gospodarczej, wynikającymi z konieczności zachowania wysokiej jakości środowiska, lecz także przynosi gminie określone korzyści materialne i pozamaterialne. To właśnie ze względu na korzyści status uzdrowiska coraz częściej staje się statusem pożądanym przez wiele gmin mających walory uzdrowiskowe. Celem badań, których wyniki przedstawiono w niniejszym artykule, było rozpoznanie stanu i możliwości rozwoju funkcji uzdrowiskowej na obszarach wiejskich w Polsce. W szczególności zwrócono uwagę na przykład województwa lubelskiego, będącego peryferyjnym regionem Unii Europejskiej. W tym celu przeanalizowano wybrane dokumenty planistyczno-strategiczne gmin typowanych jako potencjalne uzdrowiska w Planie Zagospodarowania Przestrzennego Województwa Lubelskiego. Ważną rolę odegrało studium przypadków na tle prezentacji kontekstu rozwoju uzdrowisk w Polsce, oparte na literaturze, aktach prawnych i danych GUS

Polityka opłat planistycznych w województwie świętokrzyskim w latach 2010–2015

The article concerns on how the planning fees are shaped by the communes of the Świętokrzyskie Voivodeship. The conducted research shows that the policy of communes in this respect is not clearly related to the operation of the real property market in the region. The planning fees are shaped by a number of other factors, especially the social ones. As a result, the planning fee is not used to full advantage as a local development tool.Artykuł dotyczy kształtowania opłat planistycznych przez gminy województwa świętokrzyskiego. Przeprowadzone badania wskazują, że polityka gmin w tym zakresie nie jest wyraźnie związana z funkcjonowaniem rynku nieruchomości w regionie. Opłaty planistyczne kształtowane są pod wpływem szeregu innych czynników, przede wszystkim społecznych. Prowadzi to do niepełnego wykorzystania opłaty planistycznej jako narzędzia rozwoju lokalnego

Late Maastrichtian cephalopods, dinoflagellate cysts and foraminifera from the Cretaceous-Paleogene succession at Lechowka, southeast Poland: Stratigraphic and environmental implications

© 2015 Elsevier Ltd. The Lechówka section comprises the most complete Cretaceous-Paleogene (K-Pg) boundary succession in Poland and is among 29 sites worldwide with the youngest ammonite record. Here, cephalopods (ammonites and nautilids), organic-walled dinoflagellates (dinocysts) and foraminifera from the uppermost Maastrichtian interval are studied. In terms of ammonite biostratigraphy, the upper Maastrichtian Hoploscaphites constrictus crassus Zone is documented up to a level 120 cm below the K-Pg boundary. There is no direct, ammonite-based evidence of the highest Maastrichtian H. constrictus johnjagti Zone. However, the predominance of the dinocyst marker taxon Palynodinium grallator suggests the presence of the equivalent of the uppermost Maastrichtian Thalassiphora pelagica Subzone, which is correlatable with the H. c. johnjagti ammonite Zone. The planktonic foraminiferal assemblage is coeval with that from the H. c. johnjagti Zone as well. These data indicate that the top of the Maastrichtian at Lechówka is complete within the limits of biostratigraphic resolution, albeit slightly condensed. The dinocyst and foraminiferal assemblages are dominated by taxa that are characteristic of high-energy, marginal marine environments. A reduction in test size among the calcareous epifaunal benthic foraminifera is observed at a level 50 cm below the K-Pg boundary, which is possibly related to environmental stress associated with Deccan volcanism.publisher: Elsevier articletitle: Late Maastrichtian cephalopods, dinoflagellate cysts and foraminifera from the Cretaceous–Paleogene succession at Lechówka, southeast Poland: Stratigraphic and environmental implications journaltitle: Cretaceous Research articlelink: http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.cretres.2015.08.012 content_type: article copyright: Copyright © 2015 Elsevier Ltd.

The weathering-modified iridium record of a new Cretaceous-Palaeogene site at Lechówka near Chelm, SE Poland, and its palaeobiologic implications

In the light of integrated biostratigraphic and geochemical data, a complete shallow-marine succession across the Cretaceous-Palaeogene (K-Pg) boundary, with the critical boundary clay coupled with a burrowed siliceous chalk ("opoka" in Polish geological literature), possibly equivalent of the basal Danian Cerithium Limestone in Denmark, has been discovered at Lechówka near Chelm, SE Poland. An extraterrestrial signature marking the K-Pg boundary is confirmed by anomalously high amounts of iridium (up to 9.8 ppb) and other siderophile elements (especially Au and Ni), as well as by an elevated Ir/Au ratio consistent with a chondrite meteoritic composition. The major positive iridium spike surprisingly occurs in Maastrichtian marls, 10 cm below the boundary clay interval, which can be explained by diagenetic mobilisation and re-concentration of the impact-derived components. Thus, intensively infiltrating, humic acid-rich ground waters during the long-lasting Palaeogene weathering in tropical humid regimes were probably responsible not only for the large-scale decalcification of the Lechówka section, but also for both downward displaced position of the iridium enrichment, a dispersed profile of this anomaly and its significantly lessened value, but still approaching an increase by a factor of 100. This modified record of the K-Pg boundary event points to a careful reconsideration of the iridium anomaly as a trustworthy marker for studying the extinction patterns across the K-Pg boundary, as supported by the recent data from New Jersey, USA
