Journal ArticleDOI
The relationship between channel shape and sediment characteristics in the channel perimeter
TL;DR: In this paper, a reanalysis of Schumm9s data using multiple regression techniques suggests that channel perimeter sediment characteristics play a minor role in the development of channel shape and discharge appears to be the dominant factor controlling width-to-depth ratio in Great Plains streams.
Journal ArticleDOI
Patterns of variation in a fluvial system
TL;DR: In this article, sixteen hydromorphic variables, with observations grouped by stream order, were subjected to principal components analysis to investigate the manner in which variables interact in a downstream direction within a drainage basin.
Journal ArticleDOI
Multivariate empirical test of the Leopold and Miller stream order–hydraulic geometry hypothesis
TL;DR: In this article, the relationship between stream order and hydraulic geometry was tested using multivariate discriminant analysis and the results indicate that the relationship is not as strong as suggested by L. R. Leopold and J. P. Miller.
Journal ArticleDOI
Topological classifications of drainage networks: An evaluation
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors compared nine topologic systems, ranging from Strahler's order and Shreve's magnitude to those recently derived by Werner and Smart, to test the relationship between these systems and 10 characteristics of drainage basins and stream channels.
Journal ArticleDOI
Interregional Comparison of Alluvial Stream Channel Morphology: Great Plains Versus Central Lowlands
TL;DR: In this article, the authors focused on the extent to which a particular regional boundary represents a threshold in the process of stream channel development, and they found that this regional boundary is not an effective threshold with respect to the stream channels development process, and therefore, stream channels develop in these environmentally distinct regions by way of a similar process.
