Abstract: Hydrodynamic characteristics of different streams – plane rivers and mountain rivers – are considered under natural and flow regulated conditions. Experimental results of study of velocity, turbulence and pressure fluctuations in regulated rivers are presented. The generalization of river flow parameters is made for rivers under natural conditions and for rivers with altered hydrological regime due to hydro-peaking. River flow regulation impact on habitat conditions in impounded river is discussed.
