Channel processes are the most dynamic exogenous geomorphological processes. This scientific field of research has many complex scientific problems and has long been developed in Ukraine and around the world in various fields of science, namely geomorphology, hydrology and technical sciences. The channel process is in constant and close connection with the geological, geomorphological, climatic and soil conditions of the territory.
Prykarpattia is one of the areas in Europe most prone to floods. Recent environmental research predicts a trend towards an increase in these dangerous phenomena in the Carpathian region of Ukraine. The analysis of the losses caused by floods in Lviv region shows that the allocation of funds for the elimination of the consequences of floods is growing every year. It is necessary to introduce comprehensive regulation of riverbeds, taking into account the development of channel processes and forecasting possible changes under the influence of hydraulic structures.
