Summary:

Bukowe Hills region, located in Nizina Szczecińska Plan is characterised by complicated hypsometric and geological composition. Heights reach 80-140 m, with denivelations often more than 60m. Complex of small nearly mountain catchments, with maximum area of 5 km² drains researched region. Characteristic horizontal sections of longitudinal profiles are interesting feature of selected hydrological systems, originated from short period stages of deglaciation. Topographical characteristics of selected catchments were derived from DEM, prepared on basis of topographical maps. Longitudinal profiles of streams and slope maps were analyzed also.
