The purpose of this paper is application of Sediment Impact Analysis Method (SIAM) on the basis of data from the Stare Miasto reservoir. The method is applied to determine trends in sedimentation of the reservoir. The object analysed, the Stare Miasto reservoir, is located in the Powa river in central part of Poland (Europe). The element splitting the object into main and upper part is a dam located in the upstream. The upper part is used as an element of sediment and water quality protection. In addition the highway A2 is narrowing the active flow cross-section in the central part of the reservoir. The methods used for the analysis include direct measurements of the reservoir geometry and computer model simulations. SIAM is utilized for the purposes of this research. The results obtained confirm proper performance of upper in the reservoir. The results also indicate that the highway bridge is the cause of sediment movement and redistribution in the main part.
