Received: 25 September 2014 Accepted: 16 November 2014 Abstract The discharge of high flood water (2010) into reservoirs located in the Upper Vistula River catchment and into the overloaded Vistula River channel may strongly affect water and sediment quality. To investigate the contamination of the flooded area in the center of Cracow, total of 32 sediment samples were collected along the length of the Vistula River and also from the cross section in the floodplain area. Additionally, 12 samples of the flooded sediments were collected along the Wilga River – a tributary of the Vistula located within the investigated area. The concentrations of Zn, Pb, Cd, Cu, Mn, Zn, and Fe in the bulk samples and size fraction
