TY - GEN N1 - 24 cm N2 - An eco-physiographic study is a basic study describing the natural environment conditions for spatial planning purposes. Based on a comprehensive examination of the natural environment, the study indicates areas predisposed to performing specific socio-economic and ecological functions. The study provides information indispensable for the preparation of the draft provincial spatial development plan, spatial development conditions and directions study and local master plan. The objective of this article is to evaluate eco-physiographic studies prepared for nine rural districts in south-eastern Poland. Detailed research focused on the analysis of the content and quality of environmental data as well as the correct presentation and formulation of assessments, forecasts and recommendations in these documents. From the formal perspective, these eco-physiographic studies are complete and consistent with the legal requirements. They contain a full description of the natural environment components. It was found, however, that some amendments and additions are required with regard to the insufficient identification of a) challenges to the development and use of the environment, b) assessment of the resistance of the environment to degradation, c) obstacles to development, and d) actual and potential conflicts.

The spatial scope of the study includes the suburban village of Ługwałd located within the community of Dywity (Warmia and Mazury Province). As a part of the research, a detailed survey of the village was conducted, as well as an analysis concerning the extension of the locality, an analysis and a survey of the buildings and a social survey in the local community. The article presents the issue of contemporary transformations of suburban areas in Poland along with spatial arrangement and aesthetisation of the rural landscape with regard to the village restoration programme. This programme provides an excellent tool to improve landscape values of the locality, but most often, it only results in arrangement of public spaces and not in their restoration, aesthetisation or assigning individual features with reference to the traditions of the region. In order to use the opportunity provided by the programme, an insight analysis of cultural and natural conditions of transformed areas should first be performed. A hilly area, numerous trees, arable fields, extensive meadows and lakes form the landscape of high natural values, which is the key resource of Ługwałd. Decreasing agricultural activities, as well as a strong population inflow have resulted in strong anthropogenic changes and the introduction of buildings which had no references to the architecture of the region, with observable blurring of individual features of the area and introduction of disharmony downgrading individual interiors and panorama of the village. Measures should be taken with the aim of improving spatial order and harmony between the existing and newly-designed buildings, and attempts should be made to activate the local community, bearing in mind the fact that village restoration should also include the human factor. The analyses conducted provided a basis to prepare a design concept for aesthetisation of the village.

The research covered the rural commune of Ostróda, with an area of 401 km2 . Under the analysis, the area of the study was classified into landscape units (landscape types and subtypes). The following features were analysed in the studied area: composition links, landscape interiors, distinguishing elements and exposition. 20 localities with population over 300 people were selected for detailed landscape analyses. Two landscape charts were developed for each locality. For localities covered by the analysis, a simplified valuation in a table form was performed. The evaluation included the following factors: landform features, surface waters, fauna and flora, architecture, spatial arrangement, characteristic buildings and spatial arrangements, technical infrastructure, tourism infrastructure, environmental protection, protection of historical monuments, exposure, distinguishing elements and landscape harmony. The results of the landscape valuation revealed relatively high discrepancies between landscape protection areas and areas of the highest landscape values.

The identification and characteristics of planning conditions and planning process cycle for the new centre of Rokietnica – an administrative and economic hub of the rural commune in the district of Poznań, have allowed to show the complexity and importance of the strategic approach to space management in rural areas if the suburban area. The analysis of the new space planning process for the village has allowed to present the project implementation objectives as well as the contributory factors and barriers encountered during the project implementation. Simultaneously, the paper identifies good practices in local resource management and in spatial policies of the rural commune. The Rokietnica based study was induced by a specific location of the commune and by the related change of the village character and intentional comprehensive approach of the self-government authorities to the spatial planning. It is worth mentioning the extensive cooperation involving the inhabitants, local authorities, representatives of the scientific community and urban planners/architects during the development of spatial planning concept. Also, the application of innovative techniques of public consultations, presentation of design criteria, scale of undertaking and its conditions are noteworthy.

Intense urbanization of suburban areas makes them more exposed to rapid loss of these resources than in the case of units located peripherally. In this context, the identification of the existing values in the suburban communes as well as their protection with the use of planning tools seem to be more important. The aim of this study was to identify the level of awareness of landscape resources in the communes of the Poznań agglomeration and confrontation between methods of space management and provisions in municipal spatial policy documents. As an example three communes were selected: Dopiewo, Tarnowo Podgórne and Stęszew - located in the western part of the Poznan County, in the area of intensive development of suburban settlements. The paper focused on the analysis of natural and landscape resources, with particular emphasis on forest areas and water reservoirs. Research was undertaken to recognize changes in the land use model and its dynamics in the vicinity of these areas, which in communes’ spatial planning documents are often described as the most valuable from the point of view of existing resources. There were clearly defined differences in the spatial policies of individual communes in the context of the conservation of these resources.

Given the explosive transformation of the modern countryside, there is an urgent need to find effective tools and methods to protect its cultural heritage. This protection cannot be limited to "freezing" historical forms; it should involve proactive measures affecting the quality of the landscape and the functionality of those areas, which can significantly increase their development potential. The relevant landscape research was conducted in the Długa Goślina village in the Wielkopolska Province. After identifying resources of the village's cultural landscape and determining state of their behaviour and analysing planning documents, an attempt was made to identify the opportunities and the threats to the area’s development. The aim of the research was to identify activities within the framework of village renewal, as potential development scenarios, possibly also implemented in other settlement units. Długa Goślina has features typical of a Wielkopolska village: the agricultural function limited to residential and service functions, which causes a deformation of the historical village pattern. But in terms of resources, its cultural landscape has a considerable diversity of values, which when properly interpreted and developed, can be an important basis of local development. For the village under study, preliminary conservation works were proposed. Once the public accepts these activities and effective implementation of them, it will be possible to prepare a scenario for the development of cultural tourism. Given the functioning of agricultural holdings and close market, optional or parallel development would be based on the concept of organic farming. It seems that the proposed development directions for Długa Goślina have a universal character and, when properly adapted to the local conditions prevailing in other settlements, can be used in village renewal projects in Wielkopolska.

An evidence of that is the still underdeveloped lodging base existing in region. One of the root causes of this situation is the low attractiveness of the landscape of the basin. The potential for activation of the tourism industry in the region lies therefore in exploiting the local cultural resources, which – according to research – are significant in the area concerned. Additionally, Koło Basin does not provide conditions suitable for large-area or factory farming, and therefore the region has maintained the landscape defined by smallholding farms attractive to tourists searching for genuine atmosphere of the traditional Polish countryside. One of the cultural assets of the region worth mentioning is the well-preserved traditional rural architecture, erected using the local deposits of limestone - a unique appearance of that kind of structures on the Polish lowlands. However, the tourism operators in the region rarely refer in their offers to its cultural specificity, emphasizing the common attractions, which tend to be presented in an inflated manner, beyond their actual standard.

These resources located in the northern part of the Zgierz district might serve as a developmental boost for both the Rogóźno area and the entire region. A multitude of resources, however, poses a threat of the emergence of conflicts. The use of the resources of the salt dome and waters: mineral, thermal and therapeutic is in opposition to the exploitation of lignite deposits. Low awareness of public opinion is reflected in the NIMBY syndrome in relations to planned investments.

The assessment was based on statistical data (2004–2014) published by the Central Statistical Office of Poland. The national sustainable development indicators at the level of counties were analyzed, including indicators of environmental domain and selected indicators of domain such as: social, economic, institutional and political. The graphical presentation of the data enabled the spatial location of Polish counties on a map which may have a higher potential in the creation of pro-environmental functions. Choropleth maps included in the study are based on the visualization tool available in the Central Statistical Office's Application – Indicators for Sustainable Development – local module.

The paper presents a diagnosis of the situation of Polish agriculture and rural areas in terms of low-carbon economy. Strengths and weaknesses as well as the opportunities and threats in the two key elements, i.e. maintenance or increase in the ability to absorb CO2 and reduction of greenhouse gas emissions from agricultural lands and soils, were indicated. Specific attention was paid to the high potential of agriculture and rural areas (including forestry) in terms of the possible use of their resources in order to increase the sequestration of carbon in biomass and soil and reduce greenhouse gas emissions, as well as the use of agricultural and agro-food processing with wood biomass for renewable energy development, including the production of biogas and biofuels. Moreover, the principles of operation of a low-carbon economy and the main bearings of low-carbon development of rural areas were determined. Also the need was stressed to include agriculture and rural areas into the local planning of low-carbon economy and their recognition in low-carbon economy plans which are being prepared by local government units. The proposed solutions are the result of the research and analyses carried out, as an author, during the work on a Pilot programme of low-carbon development of Starogard county. It is the first of such documents dedicated to low-carbon economy, drawn on a county scale in Poland.
