Dependly on the the land-use management, there are different technics of river training. The main aim of river training is floods mitigation. However, these activities often were done without any respect on the basic principle on keeping the ecological continuity of river corridor. In the current paper we present four types of trained river cross-sections, depend on their shapes, the material which forms them, and the condition for fauna and flora. There are also performed the patterns of the regulated channels, which are located in the different kind of urban area.
