The heated karst water of the Transdanubian Mountains issues in springs on the margins. From the data for the discharges and temperatures of these springs the natural thermal power is calculated (in kW). Fundamental information for 83 springs

An historical and balneological information on the Saint Joseph's Spa in Děčín - Dolní Žleb which was established in 1768 and closed in 1922. The spa's location and the springs are examined in context with the Děčín Thermal Zone as it is known today
Description of the health spa built around a spring as an institution in Polish culture and society dedicated to natural cures. Central to these spas are the large timberframe structures that act as a giant atomizer which forms a fine spray inhaled

1:50 000-scale hydrographic maps were used to inventory crenological objects in the catchment area of the Odra (Oder) with the result that a total of 2611 such objects were mapped. Of these, 1309 are permanent springs, 568 seepages of filtration
springs, 336 marshes, 129 permanent springs with intakes, 111 groups of springs, 87 intermittent springs, 66 mineral springs and 5 observed springs. The total discharge rate from these objects was an estimated 1,645 m3s-1. The discharge rates
of the strongest springs are of nearly 50 l.s-1, though only a few have rates over 20 l.s-1. Upland and lowland areas differ significantly in numbers of crenological objects, but less so in terms of discharge rates (magnitudes of springs). - (BJ)

The richest area of thermal mineral water of Slovakia has altogether eight main warm springs and some smaller springs with cold chalybeate water. The origin of these waters suppose the autor newly in the Propadska kotlina (Basin) and Levocska
Since the 1940s and 50s, there have been several researches dealing with karst water springs and the mapping of the continuous karst water level of the Transdanubian Mountains. The karst water level sank because of the intense bauxite and coal
mining between the 1950s and 1980s and it started to increase after the decrease of mining activity. The paper is about the mineral contents and geomorphic properties of karst water springs near a chosen reservoir and authors’ aim was to get some
information about the regeneration process of the karst water reservoir. The geomorphic properties of karst water springs were mapped, using detailed field survey (DGPS) and geomorphic mapping. - (AM)

In the Děčín Basin, there were from 1768 the St. Joseph Spa, disappeared in 1922. The end of the spa was due to number of factors, including, besides the drilling of the thermal structure, especially the industrialization of the whole territory
A Dunazug-hegység hévizeinek vizfoldtana és természeti eroforraspotencialja. (Hydrogeology and natural resource potential of thermal waters in the Dunazug Mountains)
Water extraction in the Dunazug Mountains connected to coal mining began in the late 1950s. The potential of thermal water energy is established on the basis of the largest discharge and water temperature data from the given spring. Further increase

European surface temperatures in late Spring and early Summer were examined in relation to European snow cover using satellite-derived monthly snow-cover data and station temperatures anomalies. Maximum annual snow extent and March snow extent were
correlated with temperature anomalies from April to July. Maximum annual snow-cover extent, which occurred in January or February, was significantly negatively correlated with temperature in the Spring and early Summer. Three distinct regions emerged as being
