Abstract
Daily observations of the levels of water in the Czerna Wielka river have been followed by an
analysis of the relevant fluctuations. It has been established that in the Żagań profile (closing the catchment),
the course of the water levels show a downward trend. The average water level in the timeframe 1961–2010
amounted to 108.3 cm (42.63 inches). The highest annual level occurred in 1981 (136.8 cm = 53.85 inches)
while the lowest level was recorded in 1991 (82.1 cm = 32.32 inches). As for specific seasons, the water levels
tend to be clearly highest in the winter months (with peaks in January and March) while the lowest levels are
characteristic of the vegetation season (July–August). What is more, an analysis has been carried out of the
water levels in two other observation stations located in an upper part of the catchment, where a reverse trend
has been recorded (in 1971–1993). This indicates that in the specified time, the water level has tended to rise,
unlike in the Żagań station in the same period of analysis. This situation may result from the catchment’s
diversity with respect to the natural conditions (lithology) as well as human activity (hydraulic structures).
