“…Anthropogenic factors causing flooding of floodplain lands include: regulation of river flow, development of land reclamation, leveling of the soil surface, passages of heavy agricultural machinery, irrational planting of forests' bands, construction of roads and canals in the embankment without taking into account the terrain, crossings on beams, terracing of slopes, plowing across the direction of the natural runoff of atmospheric precipitation [11]. Natural and anthropogenic factors, acting on the agrolandscapes of the steppe river basins, accelerate the processes of soil erosion, which leads to an intense washoff of fine earth into river beds and baulks [12]. As a result, degradation of watercourses occurs, which causes change in the natural coastline, occurrence of emergency situations associated with floods [1,13].…”
