DRAINAGE PATTERN
2
Characteristics of river systems
No river starts from a single point Rills Channels Ravines Streams (Tributaries) Main river No river ends at a single point Distributaries
3
Conclusion The entire river system including
Tributaries Main river Distributaries Has a specific spatial arrangement
4
What is drainage pattern?
The pattern that emerges due to the spatial arrangement of different components of the river system Tributaries Main river Distributaries
5
Type of Drainage Patterns
Radial Trellised Dendritic Disappearing Combinations of one or more of the above
6
Radial Drainage pattern
Hill in the centre Streams flow outward in different directions
7
Trellised Drainage Pattern
Streams parallel to each other
8
Dentritic Drainage Pattern
Random arrangement of streams
9
Disappearing stream Stream may disappear in its course due to
Evaporation Flowing through sandy area
10
SETTELEMENT PATTERN
11
Types of Settlements Nucleated Dispersed Houses close to each other
Strong social ties Dispersed Houses far away from each other People live in their own farms
12
Nucleated Settlement pattern
Nucleated and Radial Place well connected with nearby places People engage in trade Nucleated and Linear Houses on the side of a road or river People depend on road or rive for livelihood Nucleated
