Sherobod (river)
The Sherobod River is a river located primarily in the Surkhandarya Region of Uzbekistan. It originates in the Gissar Range of the Pamir-Alay mountains. The river flows generally southwestward through a relatively narrow valley before entering a wider plain closer to its eventual confluence.
The Sherobod River is an important source of irrigation water for agriculture in the surrounding areas. The river's flow can vary significantly depending on the season, with peak flows occurring during the snowmelt period in the spring and early summer. Dams and canals have been constructed along its course to regulate the flow and distribute water for irrigation purposes.
The river's name is derived from the city of Sherabad, a significant settlement located along its banks. The Sherobod River plays a vital role in the local ecosystem and supports diverse flora and fauna in the region.
