Fig. 9

An example of a northern part of the shore of Morskie Oko that is composed of boulders with relatively vertical walls; thus, water-level fluctuations do not influence the changes in surface area (Choiński 2016).

Fig. 10

An example of a section of shoreline, determination of which is difficult. It results from the fact that it is dispersed by boulders which form very small islands. The water surface between them is so diverse, and it forms an obstacle in finding the ‘solid ground’ (Choiński 2016).
