Abstract:
Analysis of historical maps from the 1770s-1860s Within the ArcView GIS environment Indicates, that past course of lower Smrečianka river (= right-side tributary of the Váh river in Liptovská kotlina Basin, N Slovakia ) in its response zone significantly differed from the present one. The river was not only flowing parallel to the Váh towards west, but also exhibited a meandering planform then with sinuosity index of 1.56. The current low-sinuosity lower reach of Smrečianka (river km 0-1.9) resulted from an avulsion some time in 1820s.
