Transformation of Riverbed Processes in Case of their Interaction with Cities and Vice Versa (on the Example of Valleys of the Sozh and Iput Rivers, Republic of Belarus)

T. A. Melezh

Abstract


The paper describes the relationship and interaction of the city with riverbeds and vice versa. It is determined that low-order rivers react more quickly to the impact of man-made factors, radically changing the type of riverbed processes (the Iput River). High-order rivers react primarily by changing morphometric characteristics (Sozh River).

Keywords
