This book presents an overview of the fluvial processes theory
developed in the former USSR at Lomonosov Moscow State University
for the last 50 years, following the famous manuscript by Professor
Makkaveev in 1955. Even being published solely in the Russian
language, the theory and the author of the book, Prof. Roman
Chalov, are well known in the World. This book consolidates for the
first time in English, Chalov's work for the global audience. The
book demonstrates how principles from fluvial geomorphology and
hydrology are used to develop an ecosystem approach to river
analysis and management. Despite a strong tradition in fluvial
geomorphology work in the USSR, unfortunately, little has been made
of insights provided on the international stage. The fluvial
processes theory accepted in USSR was somewhat isolated during the
long period of development from the English-language literature.
The studied rivers are mostly located in Northern Eurasia and much
different from those described in classical English-language works.
Chalov allows the readers to interconnect two Worlds in
Geomorphology, building bridges between the classical international
geomorphology and the equally in-depth and thorough but isolated
research in the USSR.
