Sediment budget in the Voron River drainage basin (the Crimea Mountains)

Abstract

3 discharge-forming landscapes are identified within the Voron River drainage basin (54.4 sq.km). The quantity of deposits moved annually down the slopes in the basin amounts to 60.3 thousand tons, some 5 thousand tons are removed from gullies onto their fans, and the river evacuates about 8 thousand tons into the Black Sea. A considerable portion of the products of denudation and river erosion is deposited on slopes, and then redeposited by streams and form floodplains.
