3 Introduction Water policy of the European Union has set new requirements for the tasks of engineering and water management. Currently, one of the most important tasks of water management in accordance with the requirements of the Water Framework Directive of the European Union is to prevent the deterioration of water bodies and to achieve good status for all waters by the end of For surface water "good status" is determined by the "good ecological status". In the case when the current biotic and physicochemical is good, according to the WFD hydromorphological assessment may be taken into account and reduce the overall rating by one step. Authors stress that hydromorphological and physicochemical parameters as creating live conditions for the nature should be taken first into account.

4 Methodology - In situ measurements: - geodesy measurements - bedload - hydrological data - bed stability prognosis (ARMOUR)

Bed erosion processes appear. Czarny Dunajec in Chochołów is cut into bottom of the bed. The bank erosion predominates. Skawa River has very stable bed. Erosion processes are found occasionally Bed is armored. River often floods it's valley.
