This study deals with concentrations of heavy metals and the main uranium series radionuclide in the Syr Darya surface waters (Kazakhstan). Large proportion of studied heavy metals were transported with suspended matter (> 0.45 μm), while large proportion of U (98–100 %) and Mo (81–100 %) were in dissolved forms and colloidal fraction (< 0.45 μm).
