This paper presents the differentiation of water quality in urban flowing water reservoir on the example of Słoneczne Lake in Szczecin along the water runway through the lake on a basis of 21 selected water quality indices at intervals of approximately one month. Water quality was determined on the basis of current Legal Acts in Poland. Based on the collected data and the use of chemometric techniques, an attempt was made to determine the role of the Słoneczne Lake in the hydrological network of Szczecin.
