Abstract

Drainage-areas of little and middle rivers in the Volga and Don basins were analyzed. The regularities of spatial sediment distribution and correlations between modulus of flow and sediment discharge in the different elements of erosion network are determined. River silt load and value of basin have low correlation, the causes of which may be the large spatial variability of accumulation processes outside the valley and significant importance of the riverbed erosion and accumulation for the formation of fluvial degradation sheet.
