The study pertained to a group of 25 warm-blooded horses, used for recreational purposes within the Kujavian-Pomerania Province for a period of 6 months. The aim of the study was to determine the effect of selected feed additives a quality of movement of the working horses’. Throughout the experiment the horses were fed livestock feed (i.e. oats, barley and hay) twice a day. For a period of 180 days...
The concept of Nordic Wellbeing was developed on a joint research project involving researchers from each of the Nordic countries. As lakes and lake landscape are dominant in Finland, the aim of this paper is to examine if lakes and lake landscapes can bring new content and added value into Nordic wellbeing tourism development. This is done by using Finnish case studies of the Nordic Wellbeing Project...
The goal of our studies was to determine the taxonomic composition of phytoplankton and physico-chemical water properties in selected lakes and reservoirs in Western Poland to estimate the influence of restoration measurements. Polimictic Maltański Reservoir (restored by means of phosphorus inactivation and biomanipulation) was characterized by increased concentrations of ammonium nitrogen as well...
This study describes the correlations between demographic, environmental and floristic profiles of Matteuccia struthiopteris populations colonizing the banks of river Lisi Parów, with special emphasis on relative variation in resources allocated to sexual (sporophyll production) and asexual reproduction (production of new small ramets). In total, 507 rootstocks were measured, and they had developed...
The project initiates the creation of a comprehensive solution to the question of safety on the waters of the Great Masurian Lakes through the creation of a network of water rescue stations. The aims of the proposed project are to create a network of water rescue stations throughout the Great Masurian Lakes, to improve the equipment of the rescue services operating on the Great Masurian Lakes (rescue...
The objective of this study was to determine the effect of the Aurora 40 WG herbicide on soil microbial counts, soil enzymatic activity and spring barley yield. Soil samples with the granulometric composition of loamy sand and sandy clay loam with pHKCl 7.0 were used. The herbicide was applied at the optimal dose (recommended by the manufacturer) and at doses 2-, 4- and 40-fold higher than the recommended...
The purpose of the study was to develop a method for lakeshore assessment, and to make assessment for the shore of Lake Velence that can serve as basis for management and restoration. The study area is a landscape part located 50 m from the legal shoreline both towards the land (riparian zone) and the water-surface (littoral zone). For Lake Velence 17 assessment viewpoints were defined comprising...
Cyanobacteria, also known as blue-green algae, are prokaryotic, phototrophic microorganisms that may form massive blooms in eutrophic water reservoirs. Some cyanobacterial strains are able to produce secondary metabolites – cyanotoxins that may be hazardous to aquatic and terrestial animals. These compunds can be grouped into: hepatotoxins, neurotoxins, cytotoxins dermatotoxins and irritant toxins...
Vertical distribution and abundance of pelagic fish were studied in two deep and stratified lakes in south-eastern Latvia. Features of vertical distribution and abundance of fish were studied using hydroacoustic methods. Acoustic data were collected by a BioSonics DT-X digital echosounder operating at the frequency of 200 kHz. The results showed significant differences in acoustic estimates of fish...
The objective of this study has been to determine the chemical composition of fish which are used to make traditional dishes in Warmia and Mazury. The material for our analyses consisted of lake fish (roach, tench, pike, vendace, burbot) and cultured fish (carp) from north-eastern Poland. The highest protein content was found in muscles of vendace (19.2 ÷ 21.9%) and roach (20.5%), and the lowest one...
The aim of the study conducted at the University of Warmia and Mazury in Olsztyn in 2011 was to assess the influence of selected environmental factors on the use of Warmia and Mazury beaches by 298 women aged 19–20. The research was carried out by a diagnostic survey method employing an anonymous questionnaire. The following environmental factors were applied in the research: the place of permanent...
