| Zusammenfassung |
| 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 of the digital elevation model used for
the computations. These drainage basins display the typical longitudinal
stream profiles, but the major basins tend to be generally more concave than
the smaller basins. |
