Abstract
Quantitative and qualitative data on channel changes along the lower Vistula arising from regulation works carried out in the 19th and 20th centuries are presented. Channel width was reduced by 50% and the bed lowered by 1.3 m. Changes of the river's hydrodynamic conditions in the segment from Wloclawek to Swiecie during the last 140 years are discussed. Changes of the bed load balance are characterized.Keywords
