Method for calculating the solid runoff of rivers and silting of riverbed reservoirs

Abstract

Abstract The article presents a methodology for calculating the solid runoff of rivers that feed riverbed reservoirs located on the territory of the Republic of Uzbekistan. The dependence of the intensity of silting of riverbed reservoirs on their geographical location and reduced turbidity was obtained. The procedure for determining the volume of silting of reservoirs using the value of the annual solid runoff of the river is given. The advantage of this method for calculating silting in comparison with the methods of other authors is shown.
