The study was conducted in the Parsęta, Radew, Gęsia, Liśnica and Dębnica rivers in 2007 and 2008 (during summer and autumn). There were notable contents of the selected heavy metals (Mn, Zn, Cu, Pb) at ten measurement places located in the Parsęta basin that included cities and villages from Parsęta spring in Parsęcko to its estuary in Kołobrzeg, where the contamination could possibly be related to local industry, sewage outlets, waste dumps and shipyard works. Bigger content of heavy metals was found in measurement places that were closer to Parsęta estuary into the Baltic sea, and especially strongly it could be observed in waters of the Radew and Parsęta at Karlino and in waters of Parsęta at Kołobrzeg and Białogard. Moreover, at most measurement places, higher amounts of zinc, copper and lead were noted in waters that were taken for analysis in autumn and also in the whole second year of the study (this time including also manganese).
