study of tectonic affects in many fluvial systems shows that, rivers are valuable tools to active tectonics surveying. study of stream channels and their associated deposits offset by faulting may reveal the amount displacement at particular site and give information that is critical for future earthquake hazards evaluation. study area which is a subbasin of atrak river is located at the ne ira...

The present study aims to describe and bring out the tectonic nature of Ijai watershed in parts Kangpokpi, Tamenglong Noney districts Manipur. has an area 184.0 Km2which is also tectonically active as depicted by analysed values different geomorphic indices like SLK index, Valley Floor Width Height ratio (Vf),Transverse Topographic Symmetry (T), Drainage Basin Asymmetry (AF), Elongation Ratio (...

Study area is located in the higher folded belt in the Zagros Mountain in the Iraqi Kurdistan. Analyzed geomorphic indices included sixteen sub basins: the stream gradient index (SL), drainage basin asymmetry (AF), hypsometric integral (Hi), Valley floor width-valley height ratio (VF) and mountain front sinuosity (J) is obtained relative of tectonic activity in the study area. These indices abo...

Kabani river is a 7 order stream with a basin area of 1647 km. There are 4 sixth order and11 fifth order sub-basins. This analysis is mainly confined to 11 fifth order sub basins. Morphometric indices like stream ordering, bifurcation ratio, stream length, drainage density, stream frequency, form factor, elongation ratio, circularity ratio, constant of channel maintenance, asymmetry factor, sin...

Introduction The vertical and horizontal movements of the Earth crust have caused extensive changes in surface phenomena, in the active tectonic regions. In order to measure some of these changes, morphometry analyses have been used to evaluation of the amount of tectonic activity. These analyses are useful tools for analyzing existing feature at the ground level and provide a proper understan...

Basin morphometry is a means of numerically analysing or mathematically quantifying different aspects of a drainage basin. In the present study, morphometric analysis of the Baitarani basin has been carried out using earth observation data and geographical information system (GIS) techniques. The morphometric parameters considered for analyses include the linear, areal and relief aspects of the...

This paper aims to examine the nature of width, depth and configuration distribution along Kuya River and their temporal directionality of changes. It also pays attention to prepare some simplified indices regarding basin asymmetry, channel asymmetry and river bank stability and to explain the nature of basin and channel asymmetry and river bank stability using those constructed indices. Irregu...

The study area is located in the Eastern Anatolian Plateau found Alpine-Himalayan fold mountain belt. Engil River Upper Basin (Güzelsu) within Lake Van Closed Basin, largest soda lake this belt terms of volume and area. This aims to investigate geomorphologic evolution Güzelsu support development with morphometric analysis. With aim, a Digital Elevation Model (DEM) was created aim quantifying e...

Shape indices have been in use for several decades to describe the characteristics and hydrological properties of drainage basins. Due to the fractal behaviour of the basin boundary, perimeter-based shape indices depend on the scale at which they are determined. Therefore, these indices cannot objectively compare drainage basins across a range of scales and basin sizes. This paper presents an o...
