The analysis is based on water level data sets collected at gauging stations in Świnoujście, Kołobrzeg, Ustka, and Gdańsk in the years 1946-2001. The article also draws upon historical data. The results of the study show that differences between the maximum and minimum levels have increased, particularly during the last 50 years. Sea level amplitudes tend to be wider in the western part of the Baltic coast than in the eastern part. Extreme sea levels occur in the autumn and winter months.}, type={Text}, title={Extreme water level fluctuations along the Polish coast}, URL={http://rcin.org.pl/Content/55505/PDF/WA51_74844_r2009-t82-no1_G-Polonica-Wisniewsk.pdf}, keywords={southern Baltic, extreme sea levels, storm surges, storm falls}, }
