تحليل الخصائص المورفومترية للأحواض النهرية (السفح الجنوبي لجبل بيرات)‎ بين وادي زنتا ونهر الزاب الكبير

Abstract EN

Morphological studies are of great importance in geomorphological studies, as the study area of (331 km2), represented by the southern foot of Mount Berat, drains its water (10) seasonal flow basins varying in their areas and shapes, and morphometric characteristics, the study dealt with the nature of these characteristics (cadastral, morphological and terrain and characteristics of the drainage network) and determined their geomorphometric stages by employing GIS software.

Its river mattresses according to the classification of (Streller) ranged between (5-6) mattresses, and the study found that most of the basins of the longitudinal shape, where the percentage of cohesion ranged between (0.37 and 0.42) except for the basins (GaLok and Bey) approaching rotation, their results were (0.56 and 0.59) respectively, which means a decrease in the significance of the risk of flooding in most of the basins of the study area except for the two basins that are close to rotation.

The study recommended conducting studies of this type on all basins of the region to know their morphometric characteristics of the importance of these characteristics in predicting floods and torrential rains.
