Abstract

Technogenic transformation of river basins results in considerable changes of their form and other characteristics what leads to the discharge changes. Perennial observations in the upper stream of the Ochakovka River indicate the alternation of the erosion and accumulation in the basin, the human impact being the main factor of these processes. For such basins' steady functioning the restrictions of anthropogenic load are necessary, for instance the scientific based distribution of recreation activity and special attention for land use planning.
