Abstract
Abstract: The Kampinos National Park was established to protect valuable wetlands, mainly shallow peat lands. The wetlands are subject to different kind of anthropogenic impact. The most significant is a threat caused by drainage system constructed to regulate soil moisture for agriculture purposes. The observations have shown that constant lowering of groundwater level caused degradation of organic soils and unfavourable changes of ecosystems. The research was conducted to find some technical measures to stop ecosystem degradation and to reconstruct the natural water conditions. Most important is to implement a proper water management which would help keeping a high soil moisture. The study shows that it is necessary to build hundreds of small weirs on all ditches and rivers. The dikes should keep the spring water on the surface of the valley. The possibilities of delivery of some water from the Vistula River are discussed as well. The most important is to implement the proper water management using existing hydraulic structures.
