Polonynian Beskids
Polonynian Beskids or Polonyne Beskids ( uk, Полонинські Бескиди; pl, Beskidy Połonińskie) is a geological group of mountain ranges of the Eastern Beskids, within the Outer Eastern Carpathians. It is one of two parallel mountain ridges of the Eastern Beskids, situated in western parts of modern Ukraine. They are stretching parallel to the Wooded Beskids on the northeast, and Vihorlat-Gutin Area to the southwest. The name of this mountain range is derived from Slavic term '' polonyna'', designating a particular type of montane meadows, characteristic for those parts of the Carpathians. Thus, the very term ''polonyne'' or ''polonynian'' Beskids translates as ''Meadowed Beskids''. In Polish and Ukrainian terminology, this range is most commonly called the "Polonynian Beskids" ( uk, Полонинські Бескиди; pl, Beskidy Połoniński), while in Slovakia it is also defined in a much wider sense, under the local term ''Poloniny'' ( sk, Poloniny).

Ukrainian Carpathians
The Ukrainian Carpathians ( uk, Українські Карпати) are a section of the Eastern Carpathians, within the borders of modern Ukraine. They are located in the southwestern corner of Western Ukraine, within administrative territories of four Ukrainian regions (oblasts), covering northeastern part of Zakarpattia Oblast, southwestern part of Lviv Oblast, southern half of Ivano-Frankivsk Oblast and western half of Chernivtsi Oblast. They are stretching in general northwest–southeast direction, starting at the tripartite border point of Ukraine with Poland and Slovakia, and continuing towards Ukrainian border with Romania. In terms of geological classification, Ukrainian Carpathians belong to two distinctive categories, with major part belonging to the Outer Eastern Carpathians and minor part to the Inner Eastern Carpathians. Within different regional and national traditions, there are several overlapping variants of divisions and designations for various E ...

Wooded Carpathians
The term Wooded Carpathians ( uk, Лісисті Карпати; pl, Karpaty Lesiste; hu, Erdős-Kárpátok; german: Waldkarpaten) refers to a group of mountain ranges that constitute the central section of Eastern Carpathians, covering both ''inner'' and ''outer'' regions of that section. Geographical scope of the term varies, since it is often used in broader or narrower sense, according to different classifications and terminological conventions. It is traditionally and most commonly applied to a wider group of mountain ranges that encompasses all mountains within central section of Outer Eastern Carpathians, including Eastern Beskids with Polonynian Beskids, and also all mountains within northern section of Inner Eastern Carpathians, including Vihorlat-Gutin Area and Maramureș-Rodna Area. In that sense, Wooded Carpathians are stretching from the southeastern corner of Poland and far eastern corner of Slovakia, through western parts of Ukraine, encompassing all of the Ukrain ...

Divisions Of The Carpathians
Divisions of the Carpathians are a categorization of the Carpathian mountains system. Below is a detailed overview of the major subdivisions and ranges of the Carpathian Mountains. The Carpathians are a "subsystem" of a bigger Alps-Himalaya System that stretches from western Europe all the way to southern Asia, and are further divided into "provinces" and "subprovinces". The last level of the division, i.e. the actual mountain ranges and basins, is usually classified as "units". The main divisions are shown in the map on the right. To generalize, there are three major provinces (regions): Western Carpathians, Eastern Carpathians, and the Southern Carpathians. Naming conventions The division is largely (with many exceptions) undisputed at the lowest level (except for the Ukrainian part), but various divisions are given for the higher levels, especially for the penultimate level. A geomorphological division has been used as much as the data was available; other new physiogeo ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Chornohora
Chornohora (literally: "Black Mountain"; uk, Чорногора, romanized: ''Chornohora'') is the highest mountain range in Western Ukraine. It is within the Polonynian Beskids, a subgroup of the mountain group of Eastern Beskids, which in turn is part of the Outer Eastern Carpathians. Description The range is located on the administrative border between Ivano-Frankivsk and Zakarpattia oblasts. It is adjacent to the Gorgany range. The highest peak of Chornohora is Hoverla (2,061 m) with other high peaks including Pip Ivan (2,022 m) and Petros (2,020 m). The mountains are made of flysch rock. The major part of the range forms the watershed between the Prut and Tysa River. The lower parts of Chornohora are inhabited by Hutsuls, whose primary occupation is herding. Major tourist centres of Chornohora are Bystrets, Dzembronia, Rakhiv, Verkhovyna, Vorokhta and Yasinia. In 1968 on the southern macroslope was established the Carpathian Biosphere Reserve, and in 1980 on the no ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Svydovets
The Svydovets (Ukrainian Свидовець; Polish ''Świdowiec''; Czech and Slovak ''Svidovec''; German ''Swydiwez'') is a mountain range in western Ukraine, one of the ranges of Eastern Beskids, itself belonging to the Outer Eastern Carpathians. It is a biodiversity hotspot in the Ukrainian Carpathians. The territories of the Svydovets mountain range belong to the state. The highest peak of the range is Blysnyzi mountain (1883 m). The ''Black Tisza'', the source of Tisza, is one of the more fullflowing rivers of the region, it flows out from the Svydovets. Flora and fauna The Svydovets is home to 42 plant species and 51 animal species that are listed in the Red Data Book of Ukraine as endangered. The red-listed plant species include the Rhodiola rosea, the Carpathian saxifrage, the fir clubmoss (Huperzia selago), and the stiff clubmoss (Lycopodium annotinum). The endangered animal species include the European brown bear, the Eurasian lynx, the black grouse, and the Eurasian ea ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Red Polonyna
Red is the color at the long wavelength end of the visible spectrum of light, next to orange and opposite violet. It has a dominant wavelength of approximately 625–740 nanometres. It is a primary color in the RGB color model and a secondary color (made from magenta and yellow) in the CMYK color model, and is the complementary color of cyan. Reds range from the brilliant yellow-tinged scarlet and vermillion to bluish-red crimson, and vary in shade from the pale red pink to the dark red burgundy. Red pigment made from ochre was one of the first colors used in prehistoric art. The Ancient Egyptians and Mayans colored their faces red in ceremonies; Roman generals had their bodies colored red to celebrate victories. It was also an important color in China, where it was used to color early pottery and later the gates and walls of palaces. In the Renaissance, the brilliant red costumes for the nobility and wealthy were dyed with kermes and cochineal. The 19th century broug ...
