In spite of apparent homogeneity, atolls constitute the environment which is diverse with regard not only to natural and anthropogenic features, but also to forms of their land use. This paper makes an attempt to analyse the relationship between the selected attributes of the atolls (76 out of 400 were selected) and the economy on the islands. The thesis states that the selected features of the atolls affect the type and diversification of space management. Among the methods used, the modified method of typology of world agriculture created by J. Kostrowicki (within the framework of International Geographical Union) was the basic one. The analysis led to the conclusion that majority of selected features of the atolls do influence the type of economic activity, although the extent of this influence is varied. The influence on diversification of space management, however, failed to be proved.

As maritime offices are branches of the maritime administration, their directors have wide-ranging jurisdiction. One of the most important duties of maritime office directors is to conduct the marine ship register, which is commonly known as the administrative register. The directors of maritime offices should be informed when salvage attempts are made, and he/she has the power to relieve pilots of their duties under certain legal circumstances. Directors also conduct inspections and reviews to ensure that ships comply with requirements regarding the prevention of marine pollution. The authors emphasize that the existing Polish two-tiered maritime administration system is criticized. Attention is directed to the combined description of the substantive characteristics of the bodies of the first and second instance, the indistinct character of certain institutions, and the lack of a stable concept regarding the role and tasks of offices responsible for maritime economics and the operations of the entire maritime administration
