Abstract
During the high flows of Skawa River in May 2014, the channel embankments has been damaged. As a result of that unprompted restoration, the straight channel pattern has been transformed into natural, braided pattern. Initial forms of new braided Skawa River channel pattern has been identified by morphometric measurements of channel forms occurring in this section of river. Morphometric measurements were also supplemented by researches of alluvial deposits including the grain size and orientation.
