Thermo-electric power stations using coal are very important and complex polluters, due to the chimneys for burning gas evacuation which represent the main high sources of environmental pollution, while the ash dumps ? are lower sources. The Doice?ti thermoelectric power station built in 1952 is located in the Subcarpathian hill area, on the Ialomi?a Valley, constituting a source of heavy metals pollution of this zone. From the geographical viewpoint, the studied territory can be included in the Subcarpathian Curv...

The purpose of this work was to study specific features of the accumulation and distribution of the total content and mobile forms of heavy metals (HM) in soils and plants of the estuarine ecosystems of the Don river and the Taganrog bay coast (Russian Federation). The soil cover is represented by following soils types: Fluvisols, Haplic Chernozem, Arenosol, Solonchak. The following higher plants were sampled: Phragmites australis Cav., Typha angustifolia L., Carex riparia Curtis, Cichorium intybus L., Bolboschoen...

This paper sheet on ?Decoding GPS data for single point positioning computation by using Python programming language? shown the program to compute receiver coordinates with use RINEX navigation and data files. In the program it is used single point positioning method to compute coordinates, and the program is coded in Python programming language. Sheet includes a part of the source code and block schemes, which described operation of the program. The comparison of the results of the approximate coordinates shows a...

The development of regional or local maximum permissible concentration (MPC) for a pollutant in the soil requires the field or laboratory simulation of pollution. The experimental design should include the control (uncontaminated soil with the background concentration of the pollutant) and at least three treatments with different pollutant concentrations in the range between 2 and 10 background values. Experiments are performed in at least three replicates. Soil samples are taken 30 days after contamination. In ea...

The aim of this paper was to analyze Bancroft positioning algorithm with comparison to the use of the uncorrelated reference point indicators, and present the results of experimental studies. Comparison of the results was Carried out in MATLAB, the source code is derived and the results are presented. The most popular method for a position determination in GNSS is to use autonomous positioning. This is the basic algorithm used in GPS systems. However users can use other positioning algorithms, depending on what th...

The GNSS satellite technology is most commonly applied in the area of air, sea or land navigation. In case of land navigation, the GNSS satellite technology guarantees a designation of a real position of a vehicle in a kinematic mode. The aim of this paper is to present and describe the possibility of using the GNSS satellite technique for the recovery of the trajectory of a motor vehicle. The research experiment was conducted on the example of a Pathfinder Nissan car. In addition, on the rooftop of the Pathfinder...

Considering the prospects and possibilities offered by Global Navigation Satellite Systems, it is sure that they will be still developing and more widely used in other parts o everyday life. The aim of this study was to analyse how accuracy a defined position could be determined by using the Spirent 6300M simulator. The tests were carried out on the basis of the Ashtech GG24 receiver which is fully integrated with GPS and GLONASS systems. Thanks to this combination the measurements of the receiver are more reliabl...
