Storage of large woody debris in the wide mountain Czarny Dunajec River, southern poland, was investigated following 2 floods of June and July 2001, with a seven-year frequency. The objective was to explain the observed pattern of wood deposition

Six rock glaciers in the SouthernCarpathians have been investigated by means of geoelectrical soundings in order to detect their internal stratigraphy and the existence of frozen sediments. In the case of 3 relict rock glaciers, the electrical
Application fo paleokarst studies in dating of tectonic events and morphology formation in an intensively faulted area (an example from the Carpathian Foredeep, Southern Poland)
Carpathian Mountains ; Mountain ; Romania ; Structural geomorphology
The Căpăţinii Mountains lie in the middle region of the SouthernCarpathians in Rumania. Their rocks are very varied in type. From the geographical point of view the mountain can be divided into four parts (according to the A.). The biggest part
This research outlines the evolution of the Hargita and Görgényi Mountains, the southern part of the Eastern Carpathian Volcanic Chain. On the basis of arguments in the paper, the one-stage origin of the volcanic activity is advanced. The style
This paper presents the influence of a relief on income of direct solar radiation in Zakopane (in Carpathians). The daily and yearly courses of average hourly and daily sums of direct radiation coming to northern, southern, western and eastern

The Curvature Carpathians, with altitudes of 900-1800 m developed in Cretaceous and Paleogene flysch deposits, are situated in the southern part of the Vrances seismic region. They are affected by intense mass movement and gully erosion
Climatic changes in Southern Poland, including the Carpathian Mountains are shown in regional and local scale. There are discussed: changeability of the circulation indices during the winter season and fluctuations of the air temperatures based
The author shows the history of the Carpathian geological vertical zones during the Late Pleistocene and Early Holocene. The warming of climate, from a continental periglacial climate to a more oceanic one, and the rise in humidity were two engines
Zosuvy v slovenskych Karpatoch.. (Slope failures in the Slovak Carpathians)
Classification and factors of slope movements and resulting failures. Geomorphological development of Slovak Carpathians. Slope failures in the Core High Mountains, Carpathian Flysch, Neogene Volcanites and in the Neogene tectonic depressions. (MS).
Geography of the soils in the West Carpathians and Inner-Carpathian lowlands
Many relic soils have been stated in the soil cover of West Carpathians. Their occurrence is regularly geographically arranged, but conditioned by other than recent climatic influences. Intrazonal structure of the soil cover is characterized by soil
