The average flow rate at the mouth of the Amazon is sufficient to fill more than 83 such pools each second. The estimated global total for all rivers is 1.2 × 10 6 m 3 /s (43 million cu ft/s), [ 1 ] of which the Amazon would be approximately 18%.
The Danube Bike Trail starts at the origin of the Danube and ends where the river flows into the Black Sea. It is divided into four sections: Donaueschingen–Passau (559 km or 347 mi) Passau–Vienna (340 km or 210 mi) Vienna–Budapest (306 km or 190 mi) Budapest–Black Sea (1,670 km or 1,040 mi)
The average annual drainage of the Danube is around 123 km 3 (30 cu mi). The deepest river of Ukraine is Dniester. In its mid stream between Pyzhniv village and Mohyliv-Podilsky through the Dniester canyon (Podillia Upland) the river narrows to 1.5 km (0.93 mi) in width and deepens up to 10 m (33 ft).
The rate of flow varies at Szolnok between 72 m 3 /s (2,500 cu ft/s) and 3,800 m 3 /s (130,000 cu ft/s) Before the extensive controls, when the spring floods of the Danube and the Tisza happened to coincide, the Danube could not absorb the water of the Tisza and the resulting flood could cause immense damage throughout the Great Plain. The ...
The entire Austrian stretch of the Danube saw all shipping halted. [23] Budapest, Bratislava, and other river cities along the Danube enacted emergency preparations. [21] In Bratislava, the Danube peaked with a volumetric flow rate of 10,530 m 3 /s (372,000 cu ft/s), which is the highest flow rate ever recorded in Bratislava. [36]
This spring, initially thought to be thermal, is actually water from the Danube that emerges from a karst formation. Aachtopf has an impressive flow rate of 8,500 liters per second and plays a key role as the main source of mineral water in Germany. The relationship between the sinkhole and Aachtopf spring was proven in October 1877.
Map of most important tributaries of the Danube. This is a list of tributaries of the Danube by order of entrance.. The Danube is Europe's second-longest river.It starts in the Black Forest in Germany as two smaller rivers—the Brigach and the Breg—which join at Donaueschingen, and it is from here that it is known as the Danube, flowing generally eastwards for a distance of some 2,850 km ...
The Breg is the longest and biggest headstream of the river Danube.It flows through the southeast part of the Middle Black Forest and the lowlands of the Baar region.. The Breg rises at a height of 1,078 m above sea level (NN), six kilometres northwest of Furtwangen.
