POLUAREA FONICĂ – O PROBLEMĂ ACUTĂ ÎN MUNICIPIUL BUCUREŞTI
NOISE POLLUTION - A PROBLEM FOR BUCHAREST
Maria PĂTROESCU, Cristian IOJĂ, Viorel POPESCU, Radu NECŞULIU
1Abstract:
The observations made by the Center for Environmental Research and Impact Studies, University of Bucharest, revealed a significant level of noise pollution in Bucharest, caused by the increase of noise sources and by the degradation of the protection belts. The measurements were made in sixteen points situated in zones with different functions (the industrial zone Policolor, residential zones, zones with intense road traffic). They demonstrated that the highest Leq values are met on arteries of category I and on some of category II where the heavy vehicles are more frequent. In order to diminish the noise pollution, it is necessary to reduce the noise level at its sources and to apply other urbanism measures (rehabilitation of protection belts and of roads, detour of heavy vehicles, etc).Cuvinte cheie:

FORMATION AND DEVELOPMENT OF THE GEOGRAPHY OF CONSUMPTION DURING THE TRANSITION PERIOD
Eleonora CALMUŢCAIA
1Abstract
: The geography of consumption as an independent branch of the economic geography appeared during the last quarter of the 20th century. The paper focuses on the process of GC formation and development according to a methodological basis corresponding to the social-economic and political development of a particular country.There are mentioned two schemes: 1) the place of GC within the geographical sciences system and 2) the reciprocal links of the conditions and factors that influence the formation of GC.
It is also stressed the necessity of revising, precising some theoretical thesis and the tasks of the continuous developing during the transition period towards a market economy.

UNELE CONSIDERAŢII REFERITOARE LA AMELIORAREA SOLURILOR DIN BALTA BRĂILEI
SOME CONSIDERATIONS REGARDING THE SOIL IMPROVEMENT WITHIN THE BALTA BRĂILEI
Constantin GRIGORAŞ
5Abstract:
The improvement works made within the Balta Brăilei did not succeed in setting up optimal conditions for good agricultural cultivation on the entire area. The analyses from the Calia and Aurelu farms emphasized that the present environmental conditions and certain features of the soil impose new improvement works. Among the most important, we mention: control of ground water level, leveling of ground, surface drainage, ploughing at variable depths, leaching, and plastering.Key words:

TRADITINAL FORMS OF WATER
UTILIZATION IN THE SOUTH OF THE LOCVEI MOUNTAINS
Costela IORDACHE
6Abstract
: Throughout time, water had an essential role for the setting and the concentration of the settlements and their location and thus, it generated a large range of technical installations.The development of these installations driven by water was in a close relation with the practical necessities, the specific of the local resources, economic profile, diversity of occupations, and advancement stage of the tools.
The presence of the aquatic resources brought to the appearance of certain traditional forms of water utilization in the manufacturing of food products (water mills), textiles (whirlpools), and wood (saw mills).
Their functionality and purpose were in concordance with the natural economy of the area and the specific of the traditional occupations, satisfying especially the internal necessities of the peasant farm. The popular mechanisms used at the manufacturing of the agricultural or wood products developed from single forms to morphological, structural and functional improved gearing.

8Abstract:
The analyzed area includes a human community characterized by old settlements and a great variety of minorities even if it does not present a high concentration of population (26,000 inhabitants) due to the predominantly mountainous relief. Another characteristic of the settlements is the fact that most of them were moved as the basin Iron Gates flooded the old precincts. From an economic point of view, before 1990, mining activities and machine construction predominated, but today, we assist to a stagnation process with a slow increase induced mainly by agro-tourism.Cuvinte cheie:

ROMANIAN ECONOMIC THINKING REGARDING THE INTERNATIONAL TRADE AND FOREIGN CEREALS
TRADING POLICIES
Camelia TEODORESCU
10Abstract:
Part of the Romanian people spiritual culture in time, its economic thinking reflected the changes that took place in the organization of our society, mainly the changes of the national economy and the influence of certain external factors upon them. All over the world, the beginning of human knowledge was under the direct influence of philosophy and art, as the human existence was dominated by the natural conditions they took place in and by people’s own ego troubling. The perception of external trade problems, explanation of this field tendencies and results, but especially the solutions proposed for these problems solving, evolved in time, had different forms and experienced certain changes linked to the state of the national economy, international circumstances, as well as to the ability of the leaders and the advice they offer for each historical stage.Cuvinte cheie:

IZOCRONELE TRANSPORTURILOR ÎN COMUN ÎN MUNICIPIUL CRAIOVA
ISOCHRONES OF PUBLIC TRANSPORT IN CRAIOVA
Costela IORDACHE
1, Alina VLĂDUŢ
11Rezumat:
În Craiova, ca şi în alte oraşe mari, transporturile în comun ridică o serie de dificultăţi atât administraţiei locale, cât şi populaţiei, interesate în reducerea timpului destinat deplasării. Dezvoltarea transporturilor urbane, extinderea parcului de vehicule, creşterea vitezei de deplasare, deschiderea unor noi artere de circulaţie, asigurarea unor legături directe şi rapide între principalele puncte nodale ale oraşului, sunt probleme care se rezolvă treptat. Soluţionarea în timp a acestora este determinată nu numai de abilităţile autorităţilor locale, ci mai ales de faptul că oraşul este un sistem complex în care au loc mutaţii funcţionale, teritoriale, care generează relaţii noi între părţile sale componente.Cuvinte-cheie:

13Abstract:
University institutions play a prioritary responsible part in the initial formation of the students, who are to be future teachers, in our case, teachers of Geography. Thus, the educational plans have been re-actualised through the introduction of compulsory and optional subjects from the pedagogical module, among which it can be mentioned the Geography Didactics; the content of both the course and seminar has also been re-actualised according to the requests of the curriculum reform of the educational system. The student has to realize a didactic portfolio containing all the forms of the activities developed at the Geography Didactics during the semester, as well as a portfolio of the pedagogical practical period at Geography, which takes place at certain schools. The two portfolios represent ways of evaluation, as well. Thus, Geography is promoted as an educational framework and contributes to the formation of the professional-didactic competences during the first stage of the initial moulding into future teachers of Geography.Key-words:

MUTATIONS IN THE STRUCTURE OF THE TERRAINS WAY OF UTILIZATION WITHIN THE DANUBE DEFILE (SECTOR BAZIAŞ - EŞELNIŢA) BETWEEN 1970
AND 2000
Costela IORDACHE
14Abstract:
The Danube Defile is a complex geographical area, the varied structure of which is rendered by the multitude of the terrains way of utilization, as well. Between 1970 and 2000, within the sector Baziaş – Eşelniţa, the land surface used by man decreased with 3% due to the construction of the basin Iron Gates that flooded large areas. Land surface registered the most important mutations, its rate decreasing with 8%, the highest regressions being signalled at Sicheviţa (about 36%) and Sviniţa (24%). The agricultural fields were slightly affected, as only 60 ha were lost during the analysed period. On the other hand, the other categories of land utilization, namely the built up area, un-productive fields, roads, water bodies etc. registered significant increases (16%).These mutations took place as a direct consequence of the social control and they are correlated with the productive potential of the natural components, with the fitting and amelioration works and it reflects the rate the anthropic pressure affected this area.

OCROTIREA ŞI ÎNGRIHIREA FAUNEI CINEGETICE DIN COLINELE COVURLUIULUI
PROTECTION AND UPKEEP OF HUNTING FAUNA IN COVURLUI HILLS Sorin GEACU
15Abstract:
Located at the southern bounds of the Moldavian Plateau, where the durmast sub-belt edges the sylvo-steppe, Covurlui Hills have a significant and varied hunting fauna. In the wake of severe human impact, eg. Deforestation, extension of cropland, or intensive exploitation of ecosystems, the area of many typically forest species has shrunk, yet they have not disappeared altogether, but were diminished very much comparatively with some open-field cynegetic species that expanded their territory. Maintaining the number and even increasing the quality of the hunting fauna (significant in the geographical landscape), several protection and upkeep works have been undertaken.Before 1948, there were
several hunting societies in towns and especially in the countryside (eg.) subsequently turning into hunting funds (territorial units for the administration and managemtn of this fauna) with provisional territorial delimitation in 1949 and definitive outline in 1952.Today, the region is divided into 17 funds. In order to supplement the hunting species’ natural diet, man has created special crop-fields or meadows, adding to their semi-natural nutrition; hay, alfalfa and other plants are harvested, conserved and distributed by the keepers. In 1999, the man-created fields covered 70.4 ha (45 types of areas between 0.2-2 ha). An average of 65-70 fodder tons/year and 20-22 tons/year of concentrated food is distributed to Cervidae (254 keepers), hares (243 keepers) and pheasants (6 keepers). There are 398 salting sites, 13 warehouses, 4 hay-fields amd 35 bathing ponds for wild boars. A number of 13 hunting control posts and 1.5 km of tracks were created within Adam hunting funds to approach the animals, observe or sample them.

CARACTERISTICILE PLOILOR TORENŢIALE ÎN OLTENIA CHARACTERISTICS OF RAINSHOWERS IN OLTENIA
Alina VLĂDUŢ
16Abstract: Rain showers can represent a factor with high climatic risk for certain regions of the country, especially for the areas with increased relief energy, made up by sedimentary rocks, and with rare or lack of vegetation. Within Oltenia, rain showers have a large impact upon environment and, of course, upon people and economic activities in the hilly area as well as in the plain. Thus, within the area in study, there have been registered some of the most severe rain showers from our country from the point of view of intensity, duration or quantity of water, the three parameters presenting, in certain case, record values.

18Abstract:
Negative peculiarities particularities in the Southern Dobrogea Plateau (1961-2000). The occurrence frequency of negative monthly and annual precipitation means registered at six South Dobrogea stations followed in our study (Constanţa, Mangalia, Valul lui Traian, Medgidia, Adamclisi and Hârşova) was calculated by Hellman’s criterion. To target was to assess the frequency of dryness and drought. The monthly precipitation mean showed this variable to have a general decreasing trend from west (Hârşova) to east (Constanţa), a finding sustained by the high incidence of excessively droughty months (26-30%) and of drought – related ones (11-16%) on the seashore. The excess of drought in most of the months suggests that continental anticyclones have a greater influence in this region throughout the year, but mostly at the end of summer, in autumn and in winter months. At the same time, dryness and drought are more frequent and intense in the eastern extremity of the coast (Constanţa, Mangalia) and quite rare in Central Dobrogea (Medgidia).Key words

22, Alina VLĂDUŢ
2Abstract:
The researches of the soils and other environmental conditions from the balta brăilei emphasized that the improvement works made till now did not succeed in setting up the optimal conditions for different agricultural crops. within the studied region, most areas are not totally fit for agriculture. the main limitative factor is the presence of the aquifer close to the surface on 97.55 of the territory. then, it is the stagnant waterlogging (50.5%), fine texture of the ploughing horizon (48.9%), and soil salinization (38.8%).According to the intensity of the limitative factors, the territory of the brăila pool was divided into 5 classes of permeability to ploughing. among these, the third class has the highest rate (57,6%).

CONTRIBUŢII LA CUNOAŞTEREA DISTRIBUŢIEI PLANOSOLURILOR DE PE INTERFLUVIUL VEDEA-COTMEANA
CONTRIBUTIONS TO THE KNOWLEDGE OF PLANOSOLS FROM THE VEDEA-COTMEANA INTERFLUVE
Constantin GRIGORAŞ
23, Sandu BOENGIU
1Abstract:
The paper presents the main natural conditions of the Vedea-Cotmeana interfluve, which are favourable for planosols genesis.On the first place is the climate, which causes a percolative moisture regime into the soil but with an alternative waterlogging and water deficit. This leads, in fact, to an intensifying clay migration and ferrolysis processes. The waterlogging occurrence, a condition to develop the ferrolysis process, is caused by the presence of clayish deposits and by the horizontal or weak inclined relief.
The planosols are characterised by a strong textural differentiation of the soil profile, which is the result of the clay migration and the clay destruction.
The geographical distribution shows that the planosols genesis has recorded the optimal conditions between 350 and 500 m absolute altitude.
