Hypsometric curve (HC) | HC obtained by plotting the proportion of the total height (h/H) against the proportion of the total area (a/A) of the basin, where H is the total relative height, A is the total area of the basin and a is the area of the basin above a given line of elevation h. | [8] [9] |
Stream-entrance angle (Zc) |
where (Zc) the angle entrance between a tributary developed in a valley-side slope (of Sg: is the ground slope. It is assumed to be the same as the slope of the tributary stream. | [1] [7] |
Clinographic curve (Cc) | Cc is based on the formula Tan where, Cin: contour interval, Swc: average width between two successive contours calculated as Ac/{L1 + L2)/2}, Ac: total areas between successive contours L1 + L2 are the lengths of two successive contours | [8] [16] [56] [61] |
