Research literature features a continuous concern both for the improvement of flood hazard modeling and for the quantification of economic costs specific to material and human damage caused by floods. In the present study, we intend to perform an analysis on the vulnerability of the transport network along the Orient-East Med (OEM) Corridor, part of the TEN-T Core network at European level. By integrating flood bands with high (10 years) and medium (100 years) probability of recurrence, as well as various typologies of the transport network in a GIS environment, we successfully identified and characterized road and railway sectors susceptible to flooding events. Vector overlay analysis and statistical methods were validated by means of local research literature, field observations and aerial imagery. Our results feature the geographic distribution and statistical characterization of transport infrastructure vulnerable to flood risk along Timiș-Cerna Valley, in south-western Romania. We also discuss the state of current flood risk mitigation measures for transport network in the study area, along with the importance of our research for regional and local spatial planning documents and investment prioritization activities. Similar spatially-enabled analysis could enable better protection for the current and proposed transport infrastructure and minimize the damaging effects of flash floods.","PeriodicalId":42850,"journal":{"name":"Present Environment and Sustainable Development","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2021-10-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45174246","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this respect, the Siret Water Basin Administration has declared the area of the Tazlău river, as a significant flood risk area (A.P.F.S.R.) (*** A.B.A Siret). The Tazlău River is a left-bank tributary to the Trotuș River, passing through the ten communes and partially through the outside the built-up areas of Onești city. Recent studies have shown the benefits of reservoirs and floodplains, as these provide the most effective way to buffer the effect of floods by slowing and spreading the discharge of a river (Băloi, 1980). By restoring and improving an existing lateral floodplain in the Tazlău River basin, in order to store part of the floodwaters that cause significant adverse consequences, will reduce the flood vulnerability of its crossings.","PeriodicalId":42850,"journal":{"name":"Present Environment and Sustainable Development","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2021-10-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41340332","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The location of the accumulation lake has hydrological importance for the studied area. The anthropogenic dam is one of the susceptible sources of floods, but the most inefficiency of the sewage system is the actual principal cause, which frequently flows back when there are significant increases in rainfall. The motivation for choosing the study is represented by the vulnerability of the Giulești-Sârbi area and by the lack of a study on flood vulnerability and frequency in the area. A questionnaire was also applied locally, some of the results being presented in this paper. The main objectives of the study refer to the spatialization at the street level of the vulnerability of floods and their following impact. It also compares the vulnerability of floods after two key periods: before and after the construction of the dam, respectively 1980 and 2020 – for the comparison and evolution of terrain changes. The problem was also analyzed by the vulnerability related to the slope, land use and geological characteristics. The results show that the Giulești-Sârbi neighborhood is still susceptible to floods. The most affected streets are those from the southeastern part of the neighborhood and punctually to the NW. On the other hand, the application of the questionnaire shows that the southernmost street (Răsadniței Street) did not register problems as often as the current hazard maps from the rowater.ro source for which the highest vulnerability was expected to show. The areas indicating problems according to the questionnaires and Romanian Waters National Administration maps largely coincide with the results of the vulnerability maps resulting in this paper. The main solution that can reduce the effect of flood vulnerability is the modernization of the sewage system.","PeriodicalId":42850,"journal":{"name":"Present Environment and Sustainable Development","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2021-10-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43856013","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This paper will examine literature to study the connection or relationship that exists between the built environment, sustainable development, and culture to describe the subject matter of this research. The importance of culture, the built environment, and sustainability will be highlighted in this section. Relevant and valid articles that demonstrate how culture is crucial in any sustainable environment or community will be the emphasis. The literature study explains how culture has a greater impact on societal development in both social and economic terms. Culture plays an important influence in long-term development. In other words, it is a critical component of the process. This is because it oversees assisting people in forming relationships and cultivating the proper attitude in the society in which they live. Sustainable development is an important idea and role in every culture and society. This is due to the fact that it has been discovered to have a good impact on every aspect of an embedded civilization. This paper will attempt to provide a comprehensive examination of culture and its contributions to environmental and sustainability issues.

This can realize prognosis for certain climatic factors that cause extreme climatic phenomena concerning forest ecosystems. The program was applied for forest ecosystems comprised of Scots pine, installed and inventoried on sample surfaces from Transylvania. Simulations were then created within two future climatic scenarios. Two scenarios were chosen: the climatic scenario in which the increase of greenhouse gases would be moderate (rcp-4.5) and the climatic scenario in which the increase would be accentuated (rcp-8.5). The data was then processed, resulting in an analysis focused on the results of future climatic changes on forest ecosystems located in the studied area. By analyzing all three pine stands, we can conclude that the Lechinta stand is the most vulnerable one if the two climatic parameters change. It is necessary to verify and use future climatic scenarios for other areas that have the same species, as well as for other species, in order to see how they will be affected. These results can be used for applying the best management measures for current stands as well as for establishing decisions for installing future stands at a national level.","PeriodicalId":42850,"journal":{"name":"Present Environment and Sustainable Development","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2021-10-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46398728","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

As climate relates to energy effects, the study raises the importance of possible heat gains in the approach of thermal comfort through building materials without using other energy sources. The study employed both empirical and comparative methods to undertake the research work. The empirical method consisted of taking thermal and metric measurements of the habitation cluster and comparing them with current normative requirements in sustainable architecture. The comparative method consisted of comparing results of performance assessment of studied building materials with results of similar materials. The current study adds to researchers' claims about the importance of the Medina's habitation in the face of climatic aggression at times with its architecture and building materials. Medina’s habitat did not have the technological means to preserve some physical comfort and reduce greenhouse gas emissions, yet its architecture used soft means to accomplish the physical comfort. Additionally, the site's well-chosen materials, which are formed by the natural typology, match well with the site’s climate and provide better resistance to material overflow, not to mention their availability and inexpensive cost.","PeriodicalId":42850,"journal":{"name":"Present Environment and Sustainable Development","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2021-10-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45403835","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
