Morphometric analysis is mathematical evaluation and measurement of the earth’s shape, surface its landform’s dimension. Dhund river basin in Jaipur district Rajasthan India has been carried out to evaluate various morphometric parameters following linear, areal relief aspects. The drainage basin, which covers a total area about 1828 km2 lies eastern part with maximum minimum elevation 603 m 21...

This report reflects the number and boundary delineations of earlier work done by the Minnesota River Assessment Project (MRAP), in which the Minnesota River Basin was divided into thirteen major watersheds. The majority of these watersheds contain the drainage area of only one of the Minnesota River's major tributaries, while the others contain a given reach of the Minnesota River as well as t...

A basic problem relating to the long-term water balance involves splitting precipitation P, into runoff R, and actual evapotranspiration E. Berger and Entekhabi (2001) showed that the evapotranspiration efficiency E/Ep (Ep denotes potential evapotranspiration) and the runoff ratio R/P, are related to physiographic basin features and regional climate information. Berger and Entekhabi (2001) esti...

This contribution analyzes water chemical data for the Choapa basin, North Central Chile, for the period 1980-2004. The parameters considered are As, Cu Fe, pH, EC, SO₄⁻², Cl⁻¹, and HCO[Formula: see text], from samples taken in nine monitoring stations throughout the basin. Results show rather moderate contents of As, Cu, and Fe, with the exception of the Cuncumén River and the Aucó creek, expl...

─Westslope cutthroat trout Oncorhynchus clarki lewisi now occupy less than 5% of the subspecies' historical range within the upper Missouri River drainage in Montana. We assessed the risk of extinction for 144 known populations inhabiting streams within federally managed lands in the upper Missouri River basin using a Bayesian viability assessment procedure that estimates probability of persist...

For the problem of efficiently supplying material to a spatial region from a single source, we present a simple scaling argument based on branching network volume minimization that identifies limits to the scaling of sink density. We discuss implications for two fundamental and unresolved problems in organismal biology and geomorphology: how basal metabolism scales with body size for homeotherm...

The analog technique is applied to the analysis of flood runoff. A quasi-linear analog model has been developed for simulating the runoff-producing characteristics of a drainage system. Where storage is linear a unique relationship correlating the inflow and outflow peaks is derived. A technique for synthesizing flood-frequency distribution is also proposed, whereby the effects of a linearor a ...

relates stream length (L, mi) to drainage-basin area (A, mi). In CG-6 (“Solving Problems,” May 1999), Stokes' Law was used to find the travel time for a dead foraminifer to settle to the abyssal plain. This equation, which relates settling velocity (v) of a small, spherical particle to the densities of the settling particle and fluid (ρs and ρf, respectively), the viscosity of the fluid (μ), an...
