SELECTED METHODS OF ESTIMATING WATER RETENTION CAPACITY – A COMPARATIVE STUDY WITH THE PIŃCZÓW REGION AS AN EXAMPLE

Journal Title: Miscellanea Geographica - Regional Studies on Development - Year 2010, Vol 14, Issue 1

Abstract

Protection of areas with high retention capacities is crucial in sustaining the natural balance. This paper compares three methods used to identify such areas. The Pińczów region has been chosen as a tested area. The results obtained for selected groups of geocomplexes have been analysed.
