Rußbach#
Russbach river, Lower Austria, north-west tributary of the Danube, River; the Russbach has a median discharge volume of 0.2 m3/sec. at Ulrichskirchen (upper reaches). Rising north of Kleinebersdorf (268 m) in the Weinviertel region, the Russbach flows across the narrow Kreuttal valley, continuing in a south-easterly direction to Wolkersdorf (178 m) and through the Marchfeld plain. The Marchfeld Canal joins the Russbach near Deutsch-Wagram (159 m), which then flows east of Engelhartstetten (143 m), joining the Danube. Within the context of the total water supply system for the Marchfeld plain, the Russbach, containing little water, is to be expanded and connected with Stempfelbach stream, which lies north-east of the Russbach, by means of the Obersiebenbrunn canal.
