The objective of this study was to investigate the concentration level and distribution of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in surface water of the Raba River; the largest Danube tributary in ...Hungary. A total of 54 water samples were collected in the period of 2008–2011 and analysed for PAHs by gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC/MS) method. The total PAH concentrations (sum of the concentrations of 17 individual PAH compounds) ranged from 41 to 437 ng/L with the mean value of 111 ± 69.4 ng/L. Phenanthrene and naphthalene were the dominant species in the surface water. Using TEF approaches on the mean concentration PAH data, benzoapyrene and dibenzahanthracene contributed the highest carcinogenic exposure equivalent. A selected number of concentration ratios of specific PAH compounds were calculated to evaluate the possible sources of PAH contamination. The ratios reflected a pattern of pyrogenic input as a major source of PAHs. The comparison of the total PAH concentrations observed for Raba River with other surface waters of the world confirmed that the Raba River could not be regarded as a contaminated river according to the levels of PAHs.
Football constitutes a vivid public ritual in contemporary European culture through which emergent social solidarities and new economic networks have come into being. This fascinating and unique ...volume traces the transformation of European football from the 1950s to the present, focusing in particular on the dramatic changes that have occurred in the last decade and linking them to the wider process of European integration. The examination of football illuminates how the growing dominance of the free market has changed European society from an international order in which the nation-state was dominant to a more complex transnational regime in which cities and regions are becoming more prominent than in the past. The study is supported by detailed ethnographic accounts emerging from the author's fieldwork at Manchester United and interview data with some of the most important figures in European football at clubs including Juventus, Milan, Bayern Munich, Schalke and Barcelona. It also includes a highly topical examination of racism in European football.

This pioneering study of amateur fútbol (soccer) clubs in Chile reveals how the world’s most popular sport has served to engage citizens in local and national politics and support democratic ...practices.
Over the last two decades soccer has become a major institution within the popular culture of the Arab-Palestinian citizens of Israel. They have attained disproportionate success in this field. Given ...their marginalisation from many areas of Israeli society as well as the ongoing Israeli-Palestinian conflict, such a prominent Arab presence highlights the tension between their Israeli citizenship and their belonging to the Palestinian people. Bringing together sociological, anthropological and historical approaches, Sorek examines how soccer can potentially be utilised by ethnic and national minorities as a field of social protest, a stage for demonstrating distinctive identity, or as a channel for social and political integration. Relying on a rich combination of quantitative and qualitative methods, he argues that equality in the soccer sphere legitimises contemporary inequality between Jews and Arabs in Israel and pursues wider arguments about the role of sport in ethno-national conflicts. Ideal for researchers and graduate students.
The Dobczyce Reservoir on the Raba River is the main source of drinking water for the city of Krakow. This function requires very good water quality, which consequently limits other functions. The ...debate whether to allow certain forms of recreation has been taking place for a long time. The paper presents the results of a questionnaire survey conducted among the visitors of the area. People asked about their way of spending time over the reservoir, the most often chose the option “other” (78%), among which the most often was walk (24%). Sunbathing was mentioned by 46%, water bathing by 32% (despite the ban), angling by 18%, and water sports by 12%. The numbers do not sum up to 100, because the visitors could choose more than one option. 68% respondents regarded the cleanliness of water as very good, good or rather good. The management in the area was assessed much worse: 66% regarded it as rather unsatisfactory or unsatisfactory
Klimatologi napovedujejo, da bodo v prihodnjih desetletjih vročinski valovi na Nizozemskem pogostejši. Ob upoštevanju tega dejstva sta avtorja v raziskavi merila mestno toploto in oblikovala model ...energijske bilance površja v Rotterdamu. Na podlagi geografskega informacijskega sistema (GIS), 3D-modelov in satelitskih posnetkov sta podrobno določila družbene, morfološke in prostorske vidike mesta ter z uporabo hierarhične in multivariatne regresijske analize opredelila povezave med temperaturami in energijsko bilanco površja ter družbenimi, morfološkimi in prostorskimi vidiki. Izsledki raziskave so pokazali povezavo med učinkom mestnega toplotnega otoka in zdravjem ljudi v Rotterdamu, poleg tega sta avtorja statistično pojasnila tudi izjemno visoko umrljivost ljudi, starih 75 let ali več, poleti 2006. Pomembno vlogo pri tem so imeli prostorska zgoščenost starejših prebivalcev, povprečna starost stavb, v katerih so živeli, ter skupni senzibilni in shranjeni toplotni tok. Vidiki, ki najbolje pojasnjujejo rotterdamski toplotni otok, so neprepustnost površja, indeks listne površine, stavbni ovoj, vodne površine in osenčenost. Avtorja sta jih predstavila na dveh t. i. temperaturnih kartah, na podlagi katerih se lahko določijo prednostne naloge pri izvajanju ukrepov prilagajanja podnebnim spremembam.
Dunaj in Praga sta pomembna srednjeevropska turistična kraja, ki ju je v letu 2011 obiskalo enako število tujih turistov. Čeprav sta mesti približno enako veliki in imata podobno kulturno turistično ...ponudbo, se močno razlikujeta po prostorski razporeditvi turistov in njihovi rabi prostora. Mestno središče Prage je znano po zastojih, prenapolnjenosti in enofunkcijski rabi, medtem ko središče Dunaja obišče podobno število gostov, vendar si pri tem lokalne funkcije in turizem ne nasprotujejo. Na podlagi podatkov, pridobljenih s pomočjo geografsko označenih fotografij obeh mest, ki so bile objavljene na spletnih straneh za izmenjavo fotografij, smo izdelali grafa prostorske razporeditve turističnih znamenitosti in poti. Z analizo teh primerljivih grafov smo lahko pojasnili razlike v turističnih sistemih obeh mest, ki so povezane predvsem z njuno morfološko zgradbo in različnimi pristopi k razvoju mestnega turizma v preteklem desetletju.
