Abstract
Summary
The purpose of this paper is characterize the chemical composition of water (by major ions and mineralization), as well as the ionic runoff of the Western Bug, Narew and Vistula rivers (the territory of Poland and Ukraine). In our work we used the results of our own research of the Western Bug (1971–2015) and the publication of Polish scientists about other rivers. Mineralization of river water is: Western Bug – 539 mg‧dm−3; Narew - 379 mg‧dm−3; Vistula - 449 mg‧dm−3. The total ion flow of three rivers was calculated, n‧103 tons per year: Western Bug - 2587; Narew - 4025; Vistula - 13827 (to the Baltic Sea). The ion runoff index (tons‧km−2 per year) was also calculated.
