The River Elbę is the third largest river in Central Europę, after the river Danube and the river Rhine in terms of length, as well as catchment area. The area of the drainage basin of the River Elbę comprises 148,268 km2 [IKSE, 1995, 2000] and is shared by Germany, the Czech Republic, Austria and Poland. However, Austria and Poland account for less than 1% of the catchment area while 2/3 are located in Germany and 1/3 in the Czech Republic. The River Elbę rises in the Krkonośe mountains (Riesengebirge), part of the Sudeten rangę, flows through the Czech Republic, central and northern parts of Germany and discharges into the North Sea near Cuxhaven. The length of the River Elbę is 1091 km (727 km in Germany, 364 km in Czech Republic) [IKSE, 2000] and along its route, the catchment area drains some of the major cities in the area, such as Prague, Dresden, Berlin and Hamburg (Fig. 1).
