Abstract
Changes of the carbonate aggressiveness of water in the karst areas of the basin of the Chochołowski and Kościeliski streams (Western Tatra Mts.) are presented. The saturation index SI[c] is lowest for rainwater, higher for groundwater and highest for surface water. Most of the surface water flowing out of the West Tatra Mountains has the ability to dissolve carbonate rocks.
