| Title | Revisiting scaling laws in river basins: New considerations across hillslope and fluvial regimes |
| Creator | Gangodagamage, Chandana Belmont, Patrick Foufoula-Georgiou, Efi |
| Description | Increasing availability of high‐resolution (1 m) topography data and enhanced computational processing power present new opportunities to study landscape organization at a detail not possible before. Here we propose the use of “directed distance from the divide” as the scale parameter (instead of Horton’s stream order or upstream contributing area) for performing detailed probabilistic analysis of landscapes over a broad range of scales. This scale parameter offers several advantages for... |
