Monitoring of water ecosystems in Kazakhstan is based generally on chemical indicators. Biological indicators, such as macroinvertebrates and a phytoplankton are rarely used. Sometimes some macrophyte species of are used for the assessment of water quality. The aim of the study was to analyse the possibilities of the introduction of the Polish monitoring system based on aquatic plants for rivers in Kazakhstan watercourses. The Polish method uses the Macrophyte Index for Rivers (MIR) and it has been prepared for the purposes of the EU Water Framework Directive. The systematic structure of Kazakhstan’s water plants were analyzed and compared with the macrophyte list of Poland. Flora of Kazakhstan was used as the main source of information and some recent publications were analyzed as well. It was found that the aquatic flora of Kazakhstan is rich and a total of 240 taxa of emergent and submerged plants are identified in the country. We have confirmed that a large number of aquatic plants recorded in Kazakhstan are recognized as bioindicators. The ecological tolerance and sensitivity of the identified bioindicators was analysed. A preliminary nine taxa with the the highest indicator weight in the MIR system (W = 3) were detected as the most sensitive indicators in Kazakhstan flora: Sciuro-hypnum plumosum, Scapania sp., Ceratphyllum demersum, C. submersum, Potamogeton lucens, P. praelongus, Lemna gibba, Menyanthes trifoliata and Acorus calamus. It was found that the MIR index can be applied in Kazakhstan, especially if we enrich the list of indicative species with the local macrophytes, which were not included in the original version. The list of potential indicator-species includes: Ranunculus altaicus, Ranunculus natans, Althenia filiformis, Nelumbo nucifera, Trapa incise which does not occur in Europe and Nuphar pumila, Nymphoides peltata, Ranunculus rionii, Rorippa palustris, Trapa natans, Utricularia intermedia, U. minor, Eleocharis acicularis and Vallisneria spiralis.

Rivers and streams in cities are treated as urbanised watercourses because of their significant transformation. Their load, channeling and incorporation into the water-sewerage infrastructure are often so considerable that such watercourses can hardly be recognised as an intrinsic component of surface waters. Anthropopressure, as reflected in quantitative and qualitative degradation caused by flow regulation and economic development in the drainage basin area, makes evaluation of the impact of human activity on the aquatic environment somewhat difficult. Based on the recommendations of the Water Framework Directive, an attempt has been made to assess the ecological state of selected tributaries of the Prądnik-Białucha River within the Krakow Conurbation. Aquatic environment sampling of the Sudół Dominikański (Rozrywka) watercourse was performed (September 2005) in order to determine some physicochemical, chemical and biological parameters, paying particular attention to macrophytes. The parameters measured on site: pH, electrolytic conductivity and Eh of water and bottom sediments, and sozological observations, were subjected to analysis. In the laboratory, concentrations of heavy metals, both in water and in solid particles (sediments and suspended matter) and anions in water were determined. The environmental state of the Sudół Dominikański watercourse was compared with that in the area of the Prądnik-Białucha River valley, for which an assessment had been conducted in the previous year (September 2004).

The presented research performed throughout 2001 and 2002 on 4 cross sections of the Mszanka river between its 5+039 km and 5+724 km was aimed at assessing the current state of plants covering the banks of the river (a right side stream of Raba river) whose watercourse underwent regulatory works in 1974, namely a combined bars and water steps engineering was applied. It was revealed that well developed plants lining the watercourse properly protected the river banks from being washed out, despite slightly inconsistent, with regard to varieties, introduction of trees and bushes. Suitability of several varieties of trees and bushes was found high enough for the purpose of biological development in watercourses of rivers with habitat conditions similar to Mszanka river catchment area.

The aim of the study was to conduct an environmental evaluation of 6 selected sections of the improved Mietiułka River, which included an inventory and analysis of the vascular flora associated directly with this watercourse. The results of the study have shown that the flora of the study area is diverse in taxonomic, syntaxonomic and ecological terms, and that it comprises both typical aquatic plants and species characteristic of the habitats surrounding the river. In the flora found in the study sectors, a total of 114 vascular plant species was identified, which come from 42 botanical families, 15 syntaxonomic classes and belong to different ecological groups. Hemicryptophytes, spontaneophytes, species neutral to continentality as well as species included in the phytochorion with boreal elements: Euro-Siberian subelement, were clearly predominant in the species composition of the flora of all the study sectors. The macrophytes commonly found in Poland had the largest proportion. One species with a small number of stands in the country – water dropwort (Oenanthe fistulosa) – as well as two species threatened with extinction, Sagittaria sagittifolia and Hypochoeris glabra, were recorded.

Extensive disintegration of spruce forests in the Beskidy Mts. in South Poland generates a need to regenerate sizeable areas as well as to rebuild forest stands which have defended themselves against breakdown. In practice, the magnitude of relevant management tasks does not allow for keeping up with the progressive destruction of forest, especially at higher altitudes, where natural regeneration does not occur as much as necessary. In addition, the species composition is limited to spruce, sometimes accompanied by beech and fir, whereas other species have a negligible share. What may be helpful in solving this problem is the method of regeneration of such areas and of establishment of under-canopy cultures, consisting of patchwork, multi-stage regeneration task performance, starting from the areas with the best chance of reforestation success and using the existing self-sown trees. Such areas undoubtedly include habitats with better water balance, i.e. humid habitats (in the case of larger areas, distinguished in the forest management plan as humid forest site types). The aim of the present study was to propose management of watercourses and headwater areas in the region of the Skrzyczne massif where the selected catchments are situated on the southern (the Malinowski Stream) and the northern (the Roztoka Czyrna stream) slopes of this massif. The research was carried out in August 2012 and included juxtaposition of available hydrological maps with actual field conditions along with identification of springs and streams and the course of their beds in order to update the existing data. The updating of the forest numerical maps in the existing databases of the State Forests IT System (SILP) included verification of the course of streams and determination of their nature (penament or periodic) with a division into the existing ones and the added ones. The data was recorded against the background of the division of the forest surface, contour lines, major roads, climate and plant floors and forest habitat types. The total length of streams was ascertained. The catchment areas and areas along their beds were determined by adopting variable distances from the beds, depending on climate and plant zones and the slope gradient. The adopted distances were: 5 m in the upper forest zone, 10 m in the middle forest zone, 20 m in the lower forest zone on both sides of the bed and in the headwater area within the radius of 10 m from a source. Specific sylvicultural procedures in headwater areas and in the neighbourhood of watercourses were described in each climatic and vegetation zones.

Eutrophication of the Baltic Sea is a serious problem, and as such it is frequently raised in relevant literature, where potamic supply of nutrients is implicated as one of the causes. Coastal waters like the Puck Lagoon, an area protected within the Natura 2000 network, as well as watercourses in adjacent Coastal Landscape Park, are particularly vulnerable to such degradation. Hence, the aim of our study, which was to determine the volume and fluctuations of transported total nitrogen and phosphorus. Another objective was to try and relate these changes to the transport of nutrients and runoff in streams flowing through Coastal Landscape Park into the Puck Lagoon (the Płutnica, Potok Błądzikowski, Gizdepka, Reda, Zagórska Struga) and into the Baltic Sea (the Piaśnica, Karwianka, Czarna Wda). This research drew on field investigations and laboratory assays performed in the hydrological year of 2009, and had been designed accordingly, including measurements of the flow rate in the selected watercourses and water sampling for further chemical analyses, including determinations of total nitrogen and total phosphorus. In brief, the highest average annual flow rate and load of total nitrogen and total phosphorus were found in the Reda and Piaśnica. The largest load variation, of both nitrogen and phosphorus, occurred in the Zagórska Struga. In most of the watercourses, the load of biogenic substances was strongly correlated with the flow, but the actual power of correlation depended on a stream and biogenes. The strongest statistical relationships for both tested substances (r > 0.8) occurred in the Potok Błądzikowski, Reda, Zagórska Struga and Czarna Wda. The Płutnica was an exception in that there were no statistically significant relationships between the water flow and the load of nutrients. However, the low value of the relationship determined suggests that we should view that series with some caution.

The paper is focused on two crucial landscape-forming aspects: linear elements (watercourses, linear tree plantings, road network) and neighbouring edges of landscape segments, or ecotones. Linear elements accentuate the character of landscape, its division, pattern, and contribute significantly to landscape passability and its diversity. The edges of neighbouring landscape segments not only create the spatial arrangement of landscape, but they also are important habitats for plants and animals. So they are irreplaceable for the maintenance of ecological stability of landscape and they are an important element of its biodiversity. The analysis of trends of changes in the length of linear elements and ecotone edges was performed in three time horizons: in the first half of the 19th century, in the 1960s, and at the present time. The evaluation was done in four model territories. Ous paper evaluates the sinuosity of linear elements (roads and railways, watercourses, dirt roads, linear tree plantings) and the lengths of common borders of segments of arable land – permanent grasslands and arable land – forests.

Zadaniem przepustów jest zapewnienie bezpiecznego przepuszczenia cieków wodnych głównie przez liniowe obiekty drogowe i kolejowe. Obowiązującymi przepisami, według których należy projektować przepusty, jest Rozporządzenie Ministra Transportu i Gospodarki Morskiej z dnia 30 maja 2000 r. w sprawie warunków technicznych, jakim powinny odpowiadać drogowe obiekty inżynierskie i ich usytuowanie [Rozporzadzenie... 2000]. Zapisy powyższego aktu prawnego zachęcają do stosowania przepustów o wlotach niezatopionych na ciekach, na których przy wysokich stanach wód mogą pojawiać się przedmioty potrafiące zablokować przepust. Ponieważ takie zdarzenia są możliwe praktycznie w każdym cieku, dlatego w artykule przedstawiono podstawowe wytyczne dotyczące projektowania najbardziej popularnych przepustów kołowych o wlotach niezatopionych. W pracy porównano również wyniki badań i obliczeń przepustowości przepustów o różnych konstrukcjach wlotowych, przy zastosowaniu formuł wyznaczonych przez federalną administrację dróg szybkiego ruchu USA (Federal Highway Administration – FHWA) [Schall i in. 2012] oraz na podstawie rządowej publikacji USA (United States Geological Survey – USGS) [Bodhaine 1976]. W artykule pokazano, że w porównaniu z wytycznymi obowiązującymi w Polsce, metodyka obliczeń hydraulicznych wydana zarówno przez FHWA, jak i USGS, uwzględnia większy zakres możliwych sytuacji przepływu wody ze względu na warunki hydrauliczne na wlocie i wylocie z przepustu oraz sposób ruchu wody w przewodzie przepustu.

Celem pracy jest weryfikacja dotychczasowych założeń oraz dalsze udoskonalenie algorytmu pozwalającego na wskazanie cieków i kanałów o priorytetowym znaczeniu dla funkcjonowania całego systemu melioracyjnego, na których w pierwszej kolejności należy wykonywać roboty konserwacyjne. Analizy przeprowadzono dla 24 cieków i kanałów (obiektów) zlewni Południowego Kanału Obry, a ich wyniki porównano z rzeczywistymi danymi dotyczącymi konserwacji obiektów w latach 2000–2009, uzyskanymi w Rejonowym Oddziale Wielkopolskiego Zarządu Melioracji i Urządzeń Wodnych w Lesznie. Z przyjętych do analizy charakterystyk największy wpływ na miejsce cieku lub kanału melioracyjnego w rankingu potrzeb konserwacji mają powierzchnia zlewni oraz średnia długość, szerokość i głębokość cieku. Istotną rangę nadano ocenie aktualnego stanu technicznego urządzeń i budowli (funkcja dotychczasowych zaniedbań i braku konserwacji). Podjęto także próbę uwzględnienia w ustalaniu rankingu potrzeb konserwacji obiektów ich znaczenia jako elementu wodnego szlaku turystycznego oraz występowania w zlewni obszarów objętych programem NATURA 2000. Wynikiem przeprowadzonych analiz jest stwierdzenie różnic między hierarchią potrzeb konserwacji ustaloną na podstawie proponowanej metody a rzeczywistym zakresem robót konserwacyjnych prowadzonych w latach 2000–2009 na ciekach i kanałach. Jako główny argument można wskazać fakt, że przy niewielkiej ilości środków finansowych przeznaczanych na utrzymanie urządzeń, wykonywano w pierwszej kolejności roboty po awariach o charakterze interwencyjnym. Przeprowadzone badania i analizy wykazały, że metoda wskaźnika potrzeb konserwacji może być uzupełniającym narzędziem w podejmowaniu decyzji w zakresie efektywniejszego wydatkowania środków finansowych w warunkach ich niedoborów.

Celem badań była analiza możliwości retencjonowania wody w zbiornikach powstałych powyżej przegród ziemnych zainstalowanych w liniach ciekowych doliny użytkowanej rolniczo. Badania wykonano w latach hydrologicznych 2001/2002-2003/2004 w zlewni lessowej w miejscowości Olszanka na Wyżynie Lubelskiej. Omawiana zlewnia o powierzchni ponad 73 ha, była w uprawie płużnej i sadowniczej. Na terenie zlewni było 12 zbiorników o pojemności od 100 do ponad 700 m3, dla których określano objętość zretencjonowanej wody. Ilość wody zretencjonowanej we wszystkich badanych zbiornikach wahała się od 2763 m3 w drugim roku badań do 3535 m3 w roku trzecim. Czynnikiem ograniczającym maksymalne zdolności retencyjne zbiorników była ich kolmatacja materiałem glebowym wynoszonym z mikrozlewni podczas spływów powierzchniowych.
