The structure of the Karay river basin by the longitudinal slopes of the river beds and the average gradients of water catchments slopes

The problems of water lag time during flood forecasting, the rate of pollution spreading over the basin area in the event of industrial accidents, the transport of suspended and dissolved substances by rivers, and planning of erosion control measures are very relevant today. Within the framework of...
