Abstract

An analysis of river bar classifications known up to the 1960-s is given. The need for new classification is founded; it should take into account morphology, position relative to channel forms, other conditions of development, dynamic characteristics, which govern the regime of bars reformation, etc. The multi-level classification consisting of several blocks is proposed. With this classification every bar has its all-round characteristic, which helps to handle channel processes for practical purposes, in particular to ensure normal navigability.
