Zusammenfassung:The flat and wet upper Mierzawa river floodplain conditions the growth of peats. Sediments of this floodplain show a facial differentiation typical for a meandering river. The variation of sedimentation types and content of clastic material in peats reflected an increase and decrease of river activity during the Holocene, probably related to climate fluctuations (i.a. 8.2 ka event) and/or human impact (last centuries).
