The aim of the study is to examine how regular travellers’ behaviour and views regarding international travel have changed as a result of the Covid-19 pandemics and the war in Ukraine. The study includes three research questions 1) how much is travel missed and how do pandemics affect international travel behaviour? 2) how do regular travellers view the danger associated with pandemics and the war in Ukraine? 3) to what extent are future travels perceived as risky? The research is based on statistical data on outgoing tourism and domestic visitor monitoring data analysis, and interviews with 33 regular Latvian travellers. The interviews were conducted during the first quarter of 2022. According to the findings, regular travellers currently feel a lack of excitement about planning trips or international travel experiences. Those who frequently travel for business report a lower level of longing for this experience. The habit of travelling locally has increased due to the lack of international alternatives during the pandemic with restrictions on global mobility. Regular travellers accept the inconveniences caused by the Covid-19 restrictions, but they were afraid and applied self-protection strategies, or even refused to travel entirely, during the first month of the war in Ukraine. Finally, regular travellers are not going to refrain from taking multiple journeys overseas or to Western European countries in the next six months but will avoid travels to zones of military conflict.
这项研究的目的是研究新冠肺炎大流行和乌克兰战争如何改变了普通旅行者对国际旅行的行为和看法。该研究包括三个研究问题:1)错过了多少旅行?流行病如何影响国际旅行行为?2)经常旅行者如何看待与流行病和乌克兰战争相关的危险?3)未来的旅行在多大程度上被认为是有风险的?这项研究基于出境旅游和国内游客监测数据分析的统计数据,以及对33名拉脱维亚常客的采访。这些采访是在2022年第一季度进行的。根据调查结果,经常出境游的人目前对计划旅行或国际旅行经历缺乏兴趣。那些经常出差的人对这种经历的渴望程度较低。由于大流行期间缺乏国际替代方案,全球流动受到限制,当地旅行的习惯有所增加。在乌克兰战争爆发的第一个月,普通旅行者接受了新冠肺炎限制带来的不便,但他们感到害怕,采取了自我保护策略,甚至完全拒绝旅行。最后,在未来6个月内,经常旅行的人不会避免多次前往海外或西欧国家,但会避免前往军事冲突地区。

This article analyses the variability of gas and aerosol pollution levels in Riga (Latvia) over different periods associated with Covid-19 restrictions. The variability of atmospheric pollution levels is described from a relative point of view; the effects of meteorological parameters were assessed using Pearson's correlation factor and statistical significance. To assess whether changes were statistically relevant during the various assessment periods, the analysis was performed using the ANOVA dispersion test and the post-hoc Tukey test. Major changes have been identified in the case of gaseous atmospheric pollution.

Depopulation processes started to intensify in Lithuanian peripheral areas in 2004, when Lithuania joined the EU, and increasing emigration was the main factor behind these processes. This paper analyses the main differences between migration processes at LAU 2 level in 2001 and 2018 in relation to the changing demographic structure of the population inside the country. Analysis of data revealed that migration processes played little role in the redistribution of the population at the beginning of the century; however, the intensification of migration at the end of the 2010s resulted in redistribution of Lithuanian residents towards major metropolitan regions. A rapid increase in the share of residents in three metropolitan regions was followed by a decrease in the population in distant peripheries. A decrease in the size of the population was also followed by ageing processes in those areas.
2004年立陶宛加入欧盟后,立陶宛周边地区的人口减少过程开始加剧,移民增加是这些过程背后的主要因素。本文分析了2001年和2018年劳2级人口迁移过程与国内人口结构变化之间的主要差异。对数据的分析显示,在本世纪初,移徙过程对人口的重新分配几乎没有作用;然而,2010年代末移民的加剧导致立陶宛居民向主要大都市地区重新分配。在三个大都市地区的居民比例迅速增加之后,遥远边缘地区的人口减少。人口减少之后,这些地区也出现了老龄化进程。

At present, 87.9% of all ash stands in Latvia are found on dry soils, where groundwater does not affect the root system of trees, and 94.3% of ash stands are distributed in eutrophic habitats, saturated with exchange bases and biologically active nitrogen. In Latvia, ash stands are found mainly on the loose sediments of sandy till and clayey till in highland and rise landscapes, as well as on silty glaciolymnic sediments in the lowlands. Sand sediments in the coastal lowlands and riverine landscapes, as well as peat sediments in both highland and lowland landscapes are not suitable for ash forest stands.
目前,拉脱维亚87.9%的灰林分布在干燥土壤上,地下水不影响树木根系,94.3%的灰林分布在富营养化栖息地,交换碱和生物活性氮饱和。在拉脱维亚,灰烬林主要分布在高地和高地的沙土和粘土土的松散沉积物上,以及低地的粉质冰川沉积物上。沿海低地和河流景观中的沙质沉积物以及高地和低地景观中的泥炭沉积物都不适合灰林林分。

At the beginning of the 19th century, common ash was a rare species in the forests of Latvia. Back then, the first ash plantations were cultivated in Western Latvia (Cīrava), but the attempt was not successful. After that, the ash spread gradually, with a particularly sharp increase during the second half of the 20th century. In 58 years (1940-1998), as a result of intensive natural regeneration and planting efforts, the area of ash stands in forests increased 9.2 times, reaching 0.79% of the forest area, a large proportion of which (62%) was covered by young stands (up to 40 years old). In the first twenty years (2001-2020) of the 21st century, with the onset of the pandemic of fungal pathogen Hymenoscyphus fraxineus, the area of ash stands has decreased 1.9 times. During the pandemic, ash young stands and pure ash stands have suffered the greatest loss. Therefore, when growing future ash stands, it is necessary to maintain a balanced age structure of stands and to create ash mixed stands.
在19世纪初,普通白蜡树是拉脱维亚森林中的稀有物种。当时,第一批白蜡树种植园在拉脱维亚西部(Cīrava)种植,但没有成功。此后,火山灰逐渐扩散,在20世纪下半叶尤其急剧增加。在58年间(1940-1998),由于密集的自然更新和植树造林的努力,森林白蜡林面积增加了9.2倍,达到森林面积的0.79%,其中很大一部分(62%)被40岁以下的幼林覆盖。21世纪头20年(2001-2020年),随着灰膜隐孢子虫(Hymenoscyphus fraxineus)大流行的发生,林分面积减少了1.9倍。在大流行期间,白蜡树幼林和纯白蜡树林遭受的损失最大。因此,在种植未来的白蜡林时,必须保持林龄结构平衡,形成白蜡林混合林分。

Studies of residential satisfaction can help to investigate and improve the emotional state of society and overall satisfaction with life, which is especially important in the wake of the Covid-19 pandemic. This research is based on the population survey in one of the second-tier cities of Latvia, Jelgava, with the aim of investigating the main factors that impact residential satisfaction in a second-tier city. Based on the characteristics of the residential satisfaction assessment of the urban environment in the study, the factors of the urban environment that affect the residential satisfaction assessment by the city’s population are identified, of which the most important factor is the quality of the environment and personal safety. The study reveals that residential satisfaction is impacted by various demographic, socio-economic, housing and migration characteristics of the population.

Evidence of the climate changes are evident in all regions of the world. In this study we examine the air temperature variability in Latvia during the last climate normal (1991-2020) in comparison with the previous two climate normals (1971-2000; 1981-2010), as well reference period (1961.-1990) describing seasonal and regional changes. Over last 60-years (1961-2020), the annual mean temperature has increased by 1.2°C across Latvia, with largest increase (0.5°C) between the last two climate normals (1991-2020 and 1981-2010). Across Latvia, winter temperatures have risen more rapidly by around 2°C, while summer temperatures have risen by around 1°C. The study revealed a shift in climate types: in the western part of the country near Baltic Sea coast, climate zones have changed from boreal (Dfb zone) to temperate (Cfb zone) according to the classification of W. Koppen. In these areas, the coldest month (January or February) has an average air temperature above -3°C. The values of the continentality indices have also changed, with a decrease in the influence of the continentality effect, that is particularly strong in the eastern part of Latvia.
气候变化的证据在世界所有地区都很明显。在这项研究中,我们研究了拉脱维亚在上一个气候正常(1991-2020)期间的气温变化,并与前两个气候正常(1971-2000;(1981-2010),以及描述季节和区域变化的参考期(1961 -1990)。在过去60年中(1961-2020年),拉脱维亚的年平均气温上升了1.2°C,在最后两个气候正常值(1991-2020年和1981-2010年)之间的增幅最大(0.5°C)。在整个拉脱维亚,冬季气温上升了约2摄氏度,而夏季气温上升了约1摄氏度。该研究揭示了气候类型的转变:根据W. Koppen的分类,在该国靠近波罗的海沿岸的西部地区,气候带从北方(Dfb区)转变为温带(Cfb区)。在这些地区,最冷的月份(1月或2月)平均气温在-3°C以上。大陆性指数的数值也发生了变化,大陆性效应的影响有所减弱,这在拉脱维亚东部尤为明显。

The COVID-19 pandemic has profoundly changed our daily lives in ways that might have far-reaching effects on societal norms and human behaviour. However, little research has yet been devoted to the pandemic's impact on internal migration. In this article, we analyse the interconnection between COVID-19 and internal migration in Latvia. This article aims to evaluate internal migration patterns during the first year of the COVID-19 outbreak in Latvia, using available data at the municipality level. We compare migration flow statistics from the 2011–2019 period and the single year of 2020, which marked the start of the COVID-19 outbreak in Latvia. The analysis identifies similar patterns regarding internal migration activity among observed geographical units. In both time periods, the highest migration levels around Riga have been witnessed and several other large cities. Comparing these time periods highlights slightly higher migration intensity in 2020 than before COVID-19.
2019冠状病毒病大流行深刻改变了我们的日常生活,可能对社会规范和人类行为产生深远影响。然而,很少有研究专门研究这一流行病对国内移徙的影响。在本文中,我们分析了COVID-19与拉脱维亚国内移民之间的相互关系。本文旨在利用市一级的现有数据,评估拉脱维亚2019冠状病毒病爆发第一年的内部移民模式。我们比较了2011-2019年期间和2020年一年的移民流动统计数据,2020年标志着拉脱维亚COVID-19疫情的开始。分析确定了在观察到的地理单位之间的内部移徙活动的类似模式。在这两个时期,里加和其他几个大城市周围的移民人数最多。比较这些时间段可以发现,2020年的移民强度略高于COVID-19之前。

Recent research trends related to the understanding of the meaning of philosophy and its use in interdisciplinary research in human geography.

最近的研究趋势涉及对哲学意义的理解及其在人文地理学跨学科研究中的应用。因此,本文旨在展示一种形成人文地理学与哲学界面的创新方法论的试点模式。“家庭体验”和“存在主义移民”这两个术语是由心理治疗师和哲学家格雷格·麦迪逊概念化的,用来总结对移民的采访,这些移民自愿选择融入另一个国家、社会和文化,以找到一个与他们的个人存在和谐相处的地方。关于生活真实性作为移民动机的研究迄今尚未发展起来,但它使得将现象学关注的人类经验分析与经验数据来源联系起来成为可能。人文地理学发现和价值论理论的调解确保了哲学性质的概念形成了统一的知识体系的架构,其中经验数据被有机地纳入其中。在这种情况下,它们是在拉脱维亚进行的许多大规模研究的数据,这些研究是关于Covid-19大流行,特别是封锁对拉脱维亚人口的影响。它们都形成了一个单一的文本,通过定性内容分析和队列方法进行检查,揭示了拉脱维亚社会中人际关系的性质,这对解决移民问题很重要。

Spatial segregation of minority ethnic groups is a returning issue in public and political debates across many parts of the world. The degree of spatial concentration and segregation of ethnic minorities in European cities is well documented. However, despite Latvia's diverse migration history and relatively high minority population, particularly in the largest cities, these issues have received scant attention. This study examines the residential patterns of minority ethnic groups, presenting data on the levels and dynamics of urban residential segregation. The study includes five ethnic minorities: Russians, Belarusians, Ukrainians, Poles, and other ethnicities. We adopted a widely used methodology to examine changes in ethnic residential segregation between 2000 and 2019. The information comes from the 2000 census and the population register. We are confident in stating that overall ethnic residential segregation levels do not appear to be increasing. However, there are some differences not only between ethnic groups in the same city, but also between similar groups in different cities. Furthermore, demographic change reinforces both minority representation in established residential patterns and ethnic segregation in urban Latvia as a whole. Certain characteristics of the Latvian context, such as the dominance of owner-occupied dwellings and relatively low residential mobility, may explain the findings.
在世界许多地区的公共和政治辩论中,少数民族群体的空间隔离是一个重新出现的问题。欧洲城市中少数民族的空间集中和隔离程度有充分的文献记录。然而,尽管拉脱维亚有多样化的移民历史和相对较高的少数民族人口,特别是在大城市,这些问题很少得到关注。本研究考察了少数民族的居住模式,提供了关于城市居住隔离水平和动态的数据。这项研究包括五个少数民族:俄罗斯人、白俄罗斯人、乌克兰人、波兰人和其他民族。我们采用了一种广泛使用的方法来研究2000年至2019年间种族居住隔离的变化。这些信息来自2000年的人口普查和人口登记。我们有信心地指出,总体上的种族居住隔离水平似乎没有增加。然而,不仅是同一城市的民族之间,不同城市的同类群体之间也存在一些差异。此外,人口变化加强了少数民族在既定居住模式中的代表性和整个拉脱维亚城市的种族隔离。拉脱维亚环境的某些特征,如业主自住住宅的主导地位和相对较低的住宅流动性,可以解释这些发现。
