Zusammenfassung |
The focus of this study was to determine river runoff impacts on channel
evolution during the last centuries. Comparing a number of maps from the
18th–21th centuries and space images in concert with hydrological data we
estimated natural trends, cycles and the intensity of channel formation for
periods of high and low runoff. Our analysis for a long period of time
enable us assessing mean and maximum rates of erosion and accumulation of
river channels and bank dynamics under different conditions. Using links
between runoff values and meander size we predict and reconstruct these for
several Russian rivers. For forecast validation we use cases of high scale
runoff change – water transfer from one basin to another. |
