THE DYNAMICS OF THE MINOR RIVERBED OF TESLUI RIVER IN RELATION TO THE HUMAN FACTOR (1910-2008) - CASE STUDY: REȘCA - FĂRCAȘELE DE JOS SECTOR

Abstract

Teslui River has suffered during the last century (1910-2008) important changes that have been reflected both in the morphology of the drainage canal (the minor riverbed) and in the natural hydrological regime. These changes concern mostly the relation between the anthropic factor and the minor riverbed, which is often subjected to an increasingly intense human pressure. The present study analyses the riverbed section situated between Reșca and Fărcașele de Jos, by presenting a general image of the spatial dynamics of the minor riverbed of Teslui, based on recent cartographic materials (topographical maps, aerial images and Landsat images).
