Western Carpathian Mts. - Opis:
- The Czarny Dunajec is a typical river originating in high mountains (the Western Tatras). Over the entire Quaternary era the river laboured carrying material away from the Tatras and depositing it in the form of a typical braided channel at their foot. At the end of the 19'h century, river management projects and quarrying operations located directly in the very channel set off a rejuvenation process that was further accelerated at the end of 1960s. The activities resulted in the damaged several sections in their natural form and considerably deepened the channel. Measures taken to restrict the amount of material entering the Czorsztyn Dam have largely failed. From the geomorphologic and environmental points of view a continued transformation of the Czarny Dunajec river channel should be regarded as highly adverse.
