Thames (English Thames [tɛmz], Latin Tamesis..) - A river in the south of the UK. Length - 334 km, the basin area - 15.3 thousand km².. It rises on a hill Cotswolds, takes place in the precincts of London, runs into the North Sea, forming an estuary. The width of the river within the boundaries of London 200-250 m, width of the estuary from 650 m (near the eastern edge of London) to 16 km (near the mouth). Nutrition rain. The average consumption of water in the lower reaches of 260 m³ / s, the maximum - in winter. Freeze-up occurs only in very cold winters. The lower reaches of the Thames is influenced by tides (their height is in London to 6-6.5 m), which reach Teddington (where mainstream Thames dammed). To protect the areas adjacent to the Thames flood the shore of the lower reaches of the river and estuary reinforced protective dykes, and in the cities - embankments. Navigable almost all along; small barges reach Lechlade city (311 km from the mouth). London is raises vessels of up to 800 tons, and ocean-going vessels reach the town of Tilbury. On the River Thames - UK capital city of London, Oxford, Reading. Thames connected to the old TV (Oxford Canal and others.) From the Bristol Channel, the Irish Sea and the industrial areas of the central part of the country. On the Thames regularly held Henley Royal Regatta. Перевод: Те́мза (англ. Thames [ˈtɛmz], лат. Tamesis) — река на юге Великобритании. Длина — 334 км, площадь бассейна — 15,3 тыс. км². Берёт начало на возвышенности Котсуолд-Хилс, протекает в черте Лондона, впадает в Северное море, образуя эстуарий. Ширина реки в черте Лондона 200—250 м, ширина эстуария от 650 м (близ восточной окраины Лондона) до 16 км (близ устья). Питание дождевое. Средний расход воды в низовьях 260 м³/с, максимальный — зимой. Ледостав наблюдается лишь в очень холодные зимы. Нижнее течение Темзы подвержено влиянию приливов (их высота в Лондоне до 6—6,5 м), которые достигают Теддингтона (где русло Темзы перегорожено плотиной). Для защиты прилегающих к Темзе территорий от наводнений берега нижнего течения реки и эстуария укреплены защитными дамбами, а в городах — набережными. Судоходна почти на всём протяжении; небольшие баржи доходят до города Лечлейд (311 км от устья). До Лондона поднимаются суда водоизмещением до 800 т, а океанские суда доходят до города Тилбери. На Темзе — столица Великобритании город Лондон, города Оксфорд, Рединг. Темза соединена старыми каналами (Оксфордский канал и др.) с Бристольским заливом, Ирландским морем и промышленными районами центральной части страны. На Темзе регулярно проводится Королевская регата Хенли.
