| Abstract: | Special features of the Amur R. ice regime in its middle and lower reaches are discussed along with the role of river ice in bank erosion, transport of coarse fragmental material, bottom washout, and water flow redistribution among branches. Numerous and various consequences of the ice drift impact on the banks and floodplain, as well as the intensity of erosion processes in the Amur River channel during winter have been revealed. The water flow redistribution among the Amur River branches near Khabarovsk noticeably changed the ice regime, which was rehabilitated as a result of implementation of a complex of special measures. |
