Horton laws for hydraulic–geometric variables and their scaling exponents in self-similar Tokunaga river networks [PDF]
Nonlinear Processes in Geophysics, 2014 An analytical theory is developed that obtains Horton laws for six hydraulic–geometric (H–G) variables (stream discharge Q, width W, depth D, velocity U, slope S, and friction n') in self-similar Tokunaga networks in the limit of a large network order ...

Quaestiones Geographicae, 2015 In ungauged catchments, flood hydrographs are usually simulated/reconstructed by simple rainfall-runoff and routing models. Horton’s and Schumm’s ratios serve as the input data for many of these models. In this paper, more than 800 Carpathian catchments (

Hierarchical ordering of reticular networks. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 The structure of hierarchical networks in biological and physical systems has long been characterized using the Horton-Strahler ordering scheme. The scheme assigns an integer order to each edge in the network based on the topology of branching such that ...

AGU Hydrology Awards: Horton, Horton, and Horton
Eos, Transactions American Geophysical Union, 1984 There are three individual awards available to hydrologic researchers through the AGU. All three bear the name of Robert E. Horton, and because of this there appears to be considerable confusion among the membership as to the purpose of the awards, eligibility for them, and the method of their adjudication.The Horton Medal is a Union award. It is given

Arthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.Objective Low copy number (CN) of complement C4 isoforms and high CN of retroviral HERV‐K elements are known risk factors for many immune‐mediated inflammatory diseases (IMIDs), often showing sex‐biased effects. Here, we assessed whether CN variation within the C4 gene contributes to giant cell arteritis (GCA) and IgA vasculitis (IgAV), two complex ...
