Abstract (en)

Research has shown that basin areas, separate parts or sections of basins containing over 50% sand have an inversely proportional influence on the river runoff. Larger (more than 7 km2) homogenous argillaceous areas have double impact on the runoff: direct one during the period of 11.78 – 55.17% probability of precipitation and inversely proportional one during the period of 69.63 – 98.55% probability of precipitation. In cases of river basins, parts or sections of basins with loam percentage lower than 70%, precipitation and runoff correlation characteristics are similar to those of sandy basins, whereas in case of loam percentage higher than 70%, precipitation and runoff correlation resembles that of argillaceous basins.
