Almost all continents (except Antarctica) are covered with a network of blue string-arteries - rivers. Somewhere this network is thicker, in the other places it is less likely. Rivers play a huge role as in maintaining ecological equilibrium natural landscapesand in man's household life.
In this article we will pay attention to many interesting questions. What is the river? What elements does it consist of? Why is the river called the river? And what names are the largest watercourses of the planet?
River in human life. Man in the life of the river
There are at least 10 million rivers and rivers in the world. They cover almost the entire globe thick blue cobweb. Most of the rivers in North America and Eurasia are less in Africa and Australia. Interesting fact: 8 out of 10 most large rivers Earth proceeds in the northern hemisphere.
Since the most ancient times, the river has become a great helper and a reliable defender for a person. It was used and continued to use for irrigation of lands, transportation of goods, electricity generation. In the valleys of such large water consumers as Tiger, Neil and Euphrates, the first powerful civilizations originated.
At the same time, many rivers as a result of active economic activity Man was inflicted huge damage. This was especially manifested in the second half of the twentieth century. Construction of enormous dams and hydroelectric power plants, creating huge reservoir space, reset tons of crude industrial waste - All this negatively affected the ecosystems of the rivers of our planet.
What is the river? What elements does it consist of? And why is the river called the river? Answers to all these questions - further in our article.
Why is the river called the river? Origin of the word
In Polish - rzeka., Ukrainian - rika, in Belarusian - cancec. It is believed that in Slavic languages, this word penetrated back in the XI century. The origin of the word "river" by scientists is still really known. There are several versions to consider. So why is the river called the river?
According to one of the assumptions, slavic root "Rivers" was borrowed from ancient Ryarland (in particular, from the word RIAN with a similar meaning). Another version connects it to the Gallic word Renos, from which, by the way, the name of the famous German Rhine River occurred.
It is worth remembering another curious fact. Thus, in the Ancient Indian Book of Rigveda, the Russian Volga is mentioned under the name of the Rangha, which is translated as the RA River (possibly in honor of the Sun's pagan deity). When fluent pronunciation this word Gradually transformed into Rachi. Even later, the letter "X" turned into "K", and "a" - respectively in "E". So arose russian word "River", used by us today.
River in Culture and Folk Creativity
The beauty of rivers and rivers is described in numerous numerous, stories, poems, singing in songs. Volga, Don, Ob \u200b\u200band Neva - the names of these watercourses most often can be found in Russian poetry and literature.
River - an extremely photogenic natural object. It is extremely good "looks" and in photographs, and on the canvas of artists. So, the Volga can be seen on the famous painting "Burlaki on the Volga" of the authorship of Ilya Repin. Mighty and majestic Kama is captured on the canvases of the famous masters of landscape painting Ivan Shishkin. But on one of the most famous works of the Archka, Queenji depicted a night Dnipro. This picture is simple and genius at the same time!
Among other things, the river is reflected in folk creativity. Dozens of proverbs, sayings and phraseologism are folded about it. Here are just some examples of those:
- "You will not enjoy twice in one river!"
- "And I want to be behind the river, yes, you're standing on the shore."
- "Tears flow the river."
- "Which is the river to swim - the water and water drink."
- "The big river and flows calmly."
- "The fast river shore blurs."
- "The river is not a sea, longing - not grief."
What is the river: definition and main features
Rivers are one of the powerful exogenous (external) forces of the Earth. They perform colossal geological work, namely: destroy, transport and accumulate in a new place of mass of rocks.
What is the river? Definition of this natural facility Next: This is natural water flowwhich proceeds along the channel, they also developed. List key features rivers as natural watercourse. So she:
- Flowing from the source to the mouth under the influence of the force of attraction.
- It is powered by underground, surface and (or) atmospheric waters.
- It has a length of at least 10 kilometers (if the watercourses are shorter, it is customary to be called a stream).
- Drives within the elongated and reduced form of relief, referred to in the geography of the river valley.
- It has its own catchment area, outlined by a clear boundary - watershed.
The main elements of the river
Any river has a source (the place where she originates) and mouth. The source is most often the source, a lake or swamp. Mountain rivers are often measured from the edge of glaciers. The mouth is a place where the watercourse flows into the ocean, the sea, a lake or another river. It can be in the form of a delta or estuary. In the desert and arid areas of the Earth, the so-called blind mouths are often found, when the rivers do not convey their waters to the sea, being lost among the sands and salt marshes.
The lowest part of the river valley, which is constantly engaged in water flow, is called the river bed. The above is the floodplain (periodically flooded part of the valley), even higher - river terraces (former floodplains). In the river rivers, especially the mountains, are often found, fots, thresholds and waterfalls.
Many rivers have tributaries. At the same time, any natural watercourse may be an influx of another, larger river. In hydrology, there is such a thing as river system. It consists of one the main river And all her tributaries. Sometimes they total amount Reaches tens of thousands! Each natural watercourse is characterized by a number of specific parameters. Among them:
- Length of the bed.
- The width of the bed.
- Square of the catchment pool.
- River depth.
- Fall and slope.
- Common water flow (in the mouth).
- Chemical composition of water, etc.
Classification of rivers
All natural watercourses are classified by hydrologists for a number of indicators. So, depending on the relief of the area, they are divided into mountainous and plain. The first is distinguished by large slopes, rapid flow and extremely narrow, rocky valleys. For the plated type rivers, a low flow rate and significant resolutionity of the bed is characteristic.
According to the age of the river, they are young, mature and old, on the stability of the channel - permanent and temporary (drying), ice regime - freezing and non-freezing.
The largest and total length of watercourses in Russia is made to allocate three types of rivers:
- Large (with an area of \u200b\u200bcatchment at least 50,000 sq. Km.).
- Average (from 2000 to 50,000 sq. Km).
- Small (up to 2000 sq. Km).
Geography rivers
On the surface of our planet, the rivers are distributed extremely unevenly. The main watershed of the Earth allocates two main water collection pools: Atlantic-Arctic and Pacific. And the magnitude of the river flow from the first of these basins is much more than from the second.
The density and "drawing" of the river network depends primarily from the climate of the territory. Secondly, from the terrain, and thirdly, from her geological history. The most thick river network is characteristic of equatorial belt Earth. It is here that the largest and most freest rivers of the planet - Congo and Amazon occur. IN moderate latitudes The river network is more developed in mountainous areas. In tropical (deserted) areas, full-flowered and large watercourses are found in exception.
The largest rivers of the world and Russia (list)
Determining length river River - very difficult task. After all, you need to know exactly where the river begins and where it ends. As a rule, the definition of the location of the source causes a mass of disputes from geographers. Therefore, the calculations of the length of certain rivers are often considered approximate.
So, for example, only at the beginning of this century, hydrologists have determined that the longest river of the planet is Amazon. Before that the record holder in this regard for a long time Reed Nile. Thanks modern method Composition space Snaps and computer processing of source data, amazon "outdoor" Nile by as much as 140 kilometers of length.
There are 170 rivers with a length of over 1000 kilometers in the world. The first ten of this list is presented:
- Amazon (6992 km).
- Neil (6852 km).
- Mississippi (6420 km).
- Yangtze (5800 km).
- Huanghe (5464 km).
- Ob (5410 km).
- Yenisei (5238 km).
- Lena (5100 km).
- Amur (5052 km).
- Congo (4700 km).
But the title of the shortest robust of the planet claims Reprove in Abkhazia. Its length is only 18 meters.
The list of the largest rivers of Russia is as follows:
- Yenisei.
- Lena.
- Amur.
- Volga.
- Lower Tunguska.
- Vilyui.
- Kolyma.
- Ural.
- Oleel.
River as symbol
The river is a dualistic symbol that simultaneously carries both creative (creed) and destructive power Nature. In a number of mythologies, it seems to be in the form of a certain "global rod", which connects the earth with the divine. In many cultures, the river was perceived as the frontier, distinguishing the world of dead With the world of living.
IN Ancient China The river performed symbol eternal life And the welfare of the country. It was believed that if the river is driving, it will inevitably lead to the death of all state power.
Many peoples with special trepidation belong to those rivers that proceed through the territory of their compact residence. So, since the most ancient times, the "sacral" river for the Egyptians is Nile. Approximately the same value is the Volga for the Russians, Dnipro - for Ukrainians, Ganges - for Hindus.
We all saw the river and know how she looks like. I see Dnipro every day from the window of my apartment. Highly i love this river. In the summer I love to relax in the village, and there are some small rivers. In fact, all my childhood passed near the river. I wonder if there are such people who do not like to go on vacation near the river? Personally, I really love this type of rest.
What is river
Let's close your eyes and remember the most beloved river of your childhood. How does it look and from which parts is?
The river is a natural reservoir that flows in its permanent channel. Water in the river does not stand still. She is constantly in motion - it's called flow. Remember how you can easily float. Lea for the driver, and she suffered you herself. And against the current is hard to swim.
These natural reservoirs have freshwater And almost never dry. Why almost always have water? The fact is that there is various sources Food rivers:
- rain;
- snow;
- glacier;
- underground waters;
- mixed nutrition.
Rivers are distinguished flow character, mode, long and width. Each river is unique. It is a river flora and fauna habitat.
Main parts of the river
The river is a small mysterious world for man. This is not just a water stream. It binds to other reservoirs and has its own parts:
- source - a place where the river begins (Mountains, Lake, Spring). Sometimes the source may be the fusion place of two rivers;
- mouth is the place where the river ends. It can fall into the sea, another river or lake. Sometimes it can be made by the "blind end" when it dries in a hot climate;
- the river valley is a downgrade in which the river flows. The mountain river Valley is narrow and shallow, near the plain - deep and wide;
- rodo - the lowest part of the valley. It can be smooth or shoved. These bends are called Meandra;
- shores - river borders. There is the right and left bank. Distinguished by the river;
- terraces - accumulative sand or rubble sewn off the coast of the river;
- tributaries - rivers that fall into the main. Just like the shores, there are right and left.
Rivers are used by a person for their life needs.

Uryuk River in the Republic of Bashkortostan - one of the wildest mountain rivers Bashkiria I. Southern UralsShe is the biggest influx of Nugush. Its length is only 91 kilometers. The beginning takes in one of the most deaf places in the western part of the Southern Urals, from the Southeast Slope of the Alatau Range (Translated - "Mottle Mountains"). IN upper current Uryuk flows south, then gradually turns to the southwest. Fits in Nugush 61 kilometer from his mouth. There is quite close to the famous Karst Bridge and Cuckoo Waterfall.

Beauty source
In front of me wide water
I look and feel inspiration,
It gives nature beauty.
Water, its good manifestation!
Down water Katit fast river,
No breeze, and on wonderful stroit,
Like in the mirror, whites clouds,
As if at a solemn parade.
The smooth coastal bushes lay down
And the soul is not a miracle reflection,
Water - a source of wonderful beauty,
He takes the thoughts into the distance with water flow.
I look at the river in the predawn hour,
After all, do not compare with her Krasu Sushi,
As if I saw for the first time
As the first love, I worry the soul.
Wide water in front of me
From inspiration I feel happiness,
She is beautiful in bad weather and in heat,
And even in the days of autumn bad weather.
