Maximising the usefulness of flood risk assessment for the River Vistula in Warsaw [PDF]

open access: yesNatural 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.

Reproductive parameters of wild and hatchery‐reared sea trout (Salmo trutta m. trutta L.) females from the Łeba River (southern Baltic Sea)

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, Volume 108, Issue 6, Page 1728-1737, June 2026.
Abstract Sea trout Salmo trutta m. trutta L. has high socioeconomic and ecological importance in the Atlantic region; therefore, stocking hatchery‐reared fish is widely practiced for stock enhancement and recovery of wild populations. In this study, fecundity of wild and stocked hatchery‐reared sea trout sampled from the Łeba River (southern Baltic Sea

Reviewing the Levee Effect: From Theory to Practice

open access: yesJournal of Flood Risk Management, Volume 19, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Ongoing development in flood‐prone areas has intensified focus on flood‐risk management strategies. Constructed flood protections, like levees, lead to a false sense of security. Resulting development behind levees paradoxically increases flood risk, referred to as the levee effect.

Basic Parameters of the Thermal Regime of Rivers in the Vistula River Catchment [PDF]

open access: yesMiscellanea 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.
