The soils of Racibórz were expected to be contaminated with heavy metals after the heavy flood in 1997, which devastated great part of Poland, especially the town. The assays covered macroand microcomponents, contents of total calcium, iron, manganese, sulphur, bioavailable magnesium, potassium and phosphorus, contents of heavy metals (lead, cadmium, zinc, chromium, nickel and copper), electrolytic conductivity, pH of soil, and finally organic matter content in soil. The research showed that soils of the district of Racibórz have a natural content of heavy metals, but the soils have the deficiency of macrocornponcnts, such as phosphorus, magnesium and calcium.}, type={Article}, title={Soil Properties of a Markowice Racibórz District after the Flood}, URL={http://www.czasopisma.pan.pl/Content/123339/PDF-MASTER/9_AE_VOL_32_2_2006_Cebula_Soil.pdf}, keywords={soils, heavy metals, pollution, flood}, }
