Abstract
European Water Framework Directive requires hydromorphological evaluation of rivers as a supportive element of ecological status assessment of running waters. River Habitat Survey is widely used method for estimation of hydromorphological characteristic of watercourses that arise from the aggregated view on river corridor and possibility of stastistical analysing. The results of surveys carried out on Polish lowland rivers in the years 1997–2008 allowed to conclude that RHS can be used in our country.
