Channel processes at small rivers are considered for the Vologda region, channels morphology and deformations appeared to depend on geological and geomorphological conditions, the stream's size and its position within the drainage net structure as well as on economic factors. The region is subdivided into areal units according to conditions of the channel-forming discharge at small rivers. Some aspects of environmental protection are considered, measures are recommended to prevent the small rivers from silting and pollution resulting from the cultivation of the rivers valleys and water-sheds.
