Abstract
The Klodnica River Catchment is heavily contaminated ecosystem located in area of the Upper Silesia Industrial Region. In this area various forms of human activity can be observed (e.g. mining coal underground, metallurgy, power/heat plants, wastewater discharged directly into the river). The impact of industrial and municipal wastes on this aquatic system causes to changes in the hydrographic network of river and the waters quality. In present study, the annual changes of basic physicochemical parameters (pH, electrical conductivity, inorganic ions, different type of organic compounds e.g. cationic surfactants) of bottom sediments collected in area of the Klodnica River Catchment were investigated. These research aims can provide the knowledge to expand areas of research in order to protect abiotic and biotic elements of the environment and the possibility of using them in a sustainable manner.
