DEVELOPMENT OF A DRAINAGE BASIN AND CHARAC-TERISTICS OF THE DRAINAGE BASINS OF JAPAN
Geographical Review of Japan, 1965By statistical analyses of the geometry of drainage basins formed by fluvial processes, the author obtained some important knowledge related to the development of a drainage basin, and made clear the hypsometrical characteristics of the drainage basins of Japan.

The most conspicuous geomorphic feature of the Sunderbans is a low, alluvial plain intersected by an intricate network of tidal rivers, creeks, estuaries and minor tidal-water courses. The Thakuran River is one of the most important tidal rivers of a meso-macrotidal regime having no perennial freshwater supply, and it forms a drainage basin covering ...

International Research in Geographical and Environmental Education, 2003
A drainage basin is a good field for environmental or geographical research for a number of interconnected issues. Project fieldwork develops deeper understanding of those issues in their complexity. The issues comprise fluvial processes and hydrology, landscape structure and land-use pattern, environmental evaluation and the possibilities of further ...

Landscape instability in an experimental drainage basin
Geology, 2000Do drainage basins develop static river networks when subject to steady forcing? While current landscape evolution models differ in formulation and implementation, they have the common characteristic that when run for long times at constant forcing, they evolve to a static steadystate configuration in which erosion everywhere balances uplift rate. This

Development of Drainage Basins
1961The phenomena discussed thus far refer only to single features present on the Earth’s surface. It is now time to consider the combined effect of the development of slopes and rivers. This leads to a theory of the development of drainage basins. Unfortunately, it will be found that this theory is not as well developed as the theories considered in the ...

Hydroclimatology of the Arctic Drainage Basin
2000By most estimates, runoff from the land surface represents the single largest input of freshwater to the Arctic Ocean. Alekseev and Buzuev [1] estimated the total freshwater input to the Arctic Ocean to be between 4300 and 6475 km3/year based on ice formation data.

On the description of the basin effective drainage structure
Journal of Hydrology, 1996Abstract The relationships between the local properties of the morphological elements of a drainage basin and its drainage structure are analysed. Two theoretical approaches are used for which hydro-dynamics and basin morphology are respectively assumed to represent the lowest and the highest starting scale level.

Floods and Drainage Basin Features
2017Floods occur not only because of the rainfall but also the surface features, which collects, converges, and diverges of the after rain runoff flows through natural or artificial channels. The significance of topographic maps, satellite images, and digital elevation model (DEM) data, if available.

The Drainage Basin as the Fundamental Geomorphic Unit
2019The physiographic regions so delimited for the United States were based largely upon considerations of structural geology, although certain gross morphometric attributes, notably relief and degree of dissection, were also used. The distributional characteristics of land elevations have long been of geomorphic interest, because concentrations of area ...
