Maximising the usefulness of flood risk assessment for the River Vistula in Warsaw [PDF]
Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2013 Abstract. The derivation of the flood risk maps requires an estimation of maximum inundation extent for a flood with a given return period, e.g. 100 or 500 yr. The results of numerical simulations of flood wave propagation are used to overcome the lack of relevant observations. In practice, deterministic 1-D models are used for that purpose.

Basic Parameters of the Thermal Regime of Rivers in the Vistula River Catchment [PDF]
Miscellanea Geographica, 2010 Abstract Seasonal and multi-annual variability of river water temperature has been analysed based on data from 24 gauge stations of the IMGW network. It has been characterised by means of several values of the thermal regime parameters: mean annual, semi-annual (November-April, May-October) and amplitude.
