TLDR
In this article, a geomorphic classification for ephemeral streams in mountainous regions based on planform, degree of confinement, and composition of confining material is presented, and five stream types are identified in the Sonoran desert ofsouthwestern Arizona: piedmontheadwater, bedrock, alluvium, incisedalluvium and braided channels.About:

TL;DR: It was found that the four frameworks consistently classified reach types into similar groups based on each reach or segment’s dominant hydrogeomorphic elements, indicating that criticism of individual classifications for their use of form in grouping stream channels may be overstated.

Geomorphology and Sediment Regimes of Intermittent Rivers and Ephemeral Streams

TL;DR: The geomorphology and sediment regimes of intermittent rivers and ephemeral streams (IRES) are extremely diverse, owing in large part to the substantial spatiotemporal variability of the associated hydrological regimes as discussed by the authors.

Hydrological Connectivity in Intermittent Rivers and Ephemeral Streams
TL;DR: In this article, hydrological connectivity mediated by either flowing or non-flowing water extends along three spatial dimensions (longitudinal, lateral, and vertical) and varies over time.

Classification and regression trees
TL;DR: The methodology used to construct tree structured rules is the focus of a monograph as mentioned in this paper, covering the use of trees as a data analysis method, and in a more mathematical framework, proving some of their fundamental properties.
