The river Sukhona, a photo of which is presented below, has a length of 558 km, area of its basin exceeds 50 thousand sq. m. Its name comes from the word "shadya" which means “dry bottom”. It takes from the beginning of the kubenskoe lake, there divided into 2 sleeves: Big Pucks and Sukhona. The main feature is that of natural causes in the spring, it changes its direction of flow. P. Sukhona has a depth of 100 m. there is a small number of rapids and rocky Islands.

Geographical features

The River Sukhona in the Vologda region, stretching nearly 560 km long, flows South-East in its upper reaches, then turns in a northerly direction and joins the river Yug. The pool includes more than 4 hundred of rivers some 6 million streams. There are also lakes, but most of them are quite small, the area of which barely exceed 0.4 km. In the catchment it is possible to notice a dense planting of forests, occupying about 70% of the total space. There are swamps. The drain of the kubenskoe lake, where originates the river Sukhona, is controlled through constructed a few years ago the dam.

A Little history

Bank of the Sukhona was developed in the V century BC. Russian people came to this land much later, in the XI century. She proceeded via Arkhangelsk and Central Russia, allowing to carry from one place to another in different materials. At that time it was the most important artery, which allowed to develop industry and trade. Conducting hydrological work to improve conditions for navigation, the researchers found, which flows into the Sukhona, the Northern Dvina. Such information allowed to expand its transport capabilities.

In the nineteenth century different areas of the river were called differently. For example, the distance from the kubenskoe lake to Vologda called Rebanhos (the name arose after the construction on the banks of the river Ribarskog monastery), from Vologda to Divinity – the Lower Sukhona, after Divinity – the great Sukhona.

Utilisation

Thanks to the North-Dvina system, the river Sukhona Connects with the Volga. Its territory is navigable, but in summer time the traffic slowed down because of water shortage, mainly in the lower reaches. Since 1990 has been discontinued passenger transportation as it was too costly and unprofitable. At the moment due to discharge some areas of the river are heavily polluted by phenol, therefore drinking water is prohibited. Such environmental condition of the stream affects the surrounding area.

The River Sukhona in the Vologda region at the moment is quite an important artery of the country, though, and work on its improvement (the extension of the channel, deepening) are not conducted.

Hydrology

The dominant power snow. With April comes the flood, which in its upper course, formed large spills (up to several kilometers). The river Sukhona It freezes in November-December, and only revealed closer to may.

Divided into three currents:

  • Upper (to the mouth). Calm prevails throughout. The width of the river bed does not exceed 200 m. the shores are forests and meadows.
  • Secondary (from the mouth to tot'ma). For more than a quick, restless. The forest gets closer to the water stream. The depth reaches 100 m, the channel width - 240 m. In this area there are many rapids.
  • Bottom (below the Totma). The forest rises fully to the water. The course is fast. The width of the river in some areas can reach 400 m. the Islands that were visible before, is completely covered with water.

Fauna

The River Sukhona has 58 species of fish, including 3 species of lampreys. Common are the following types:

  • Fishing – smelt, smelt;
  • Valuable – whitefish, vendace;
  • Krupnokuskovoy – perch, bream.

Here are very rare and protected aquatic animals: Alaska, trout, salmon, sturgeon, lake char.

Fauna of the forests is located on the banks of the river Sukhona is particularly diverse. There are frequent guests are foxes, elks, wild boars, hares, wolves, bears. A little rare to come across a lynx, marten, otter, mink, raccoon, mole, ermine. They nest in these places, geese, ducks, you can find also grouse, partridge and grouse.

Fauna

The Area adjacent to the river zone is divided into two subspecies: forest and South forest. 70 % of the territory is covered by forests, particularly spruce. In the Eastern region can find fir, larch, pine. In the South-West sprout only lichen pine forests, this vegetation is scarce due to poor soil. To the South, Rowan and lime. Least likely to meet aspen and birch forests, they replace the felled spruce trees. Marshes occupy 10% of the total area. Here you can see the stunted pine, birch. 14% are meadows and arable land. Meadows account for only 7 %.Dominated by grass, sedge planetradio and landing. The valley of the Sukhona also grow krupnooptovye coarse-cereals and forests.

To Track the diversity of the water flow from its source to its mouth it is possible, because the river Sukhona in the map is visible very well. For example, at the site of kubenskoe lake to the village of Shuya is birch wood, which sometimes grow of aspen, spruce and alder. Of natural causes he strongly retreated from the shore, where now is located a wide meadow. From the village of Shuya to Totma they are replaced by forests. Then the river, pivoting to the North, again away from him. Closer to the coast the forest is suitable only near the inflow of Tolsma. In the place where the river approaches the mouth, it gives way to the steep banks.

Environmental conditions

At the moment, the ecological situation of the Sukhona not happy. At least there are lignosulphonates, the content of which exceeded 30 times. Scientists report that river every day takes 180 thousand m3 industrial and domestic waters containing organic matter. At the moment, because of non-compliance the water quality coming from Sukhona remains low, while in some areas this condition has reached a critical point. On its banks, built a record number of plants, which adversely affect the status of water flow. The fact that in 2006, under the threat of flooding from excessive snowmelt region threatened with ecological disaster, speaks volumes.
R Sukhona

On the banks of the Sukhona is a great city and the birthplace of Santa Claus - the Great Ustyug. There are lots of things that characterize the Russian city: the dome, lacework, huts, bells. In addition to this settlement on the river was built Falcon and tot'ma.

Previously, the water flow was important for the state, as evidenced named after him Sukhonsky street, which is located in one of the districts of Moscow. Unfortunately, the water flow ceased to be appreciated, and his condition is getting worse every day.
