A suite of 42 morphometric parameters for each of 26 272 drainage basins larger than 100 km2 from the Hydrosheds Shuttle Radar Topography digital elevation model shows the global distribution of Strahler order for streams and drainage basins. At the scale of 15 arc s spacing (232 to 464 m) the largest basins are order 9. Many common parameters depend both on the size of the basin, and the scale...

Foreword The CRC for Catchment Hydrology S2 project 'Managing Disposal Basins for Salt Storage within Irrigation Areas' was based on the premise that disposal basins are 'a fact of life' in the Murray-Darling Basin. Consequently there is a need for guidelines to site, design and manage them to minimise environmental and other problems. However, more than 190 existing basins were built when ther...

[1] We compare morphologies of drainage basins on Mars and Earth in order to confine the formation process ofMartian valley networks. Basins on both planets are computationally extracted from digital topography. Integral-geometry methods are used to represent each basin by a circularity function that encapsulates its internal structure. The shape of such a function is an indicator of the style ...

Using data collected from six basins located across two hydrologically contrasting agricultural catchments, this study investigated whether transport metrics alone provide better estimates of storm phosphorus (P) loss from basins than critical source area (CSA) metrics which combine source factors as well. Concentrations and loads of P in quickflow (QF) were measured at basin outlets during fou...

Lunar topographic data revealed a large population of large impact basins not previously recognized by standard photogeologic mapping. Crustal thickness model data reveal the presence of even more. The total number of lunar basins > 300 km diameter may exceed 150, more than 3 times that determined by photogeologic mapping alone. Introduction: Photogeologic mapping suggested the cumulative numbe...

Many studies have been conducted on the characteristics of hydraulic jumps over horizontal basins. On sloping basins, however, few such studies have been performed so that the issue requires more investigation. A significant number of studies has also been conducted on basins with positive slopes but comparatively few have been carried out on basins with negative slopes. This study was carried ...

abstract: the aim of this study is analysis of drainage basins neotectonic in the north slope of bozqoosh mountains by geomorphological methods. to attain this aim, it used of field observation, areal photographs and five geomorphic indexes in 20 basins of the north slope of bozqoosh mountains. indexes were calculated by topography maps (1: 50000), geological maps (1: 100000) and areal photogr...
