“…Therefore, the region with the westfacing slope feels warmer as compared shaded east (E)-facing slope in most cases. The catchment aspect affects biodiversity and agricultural productivity in the area [21,49], where 0° is the true North (N), 90° is the E, 180° is in the south (S) dimension (Figure 6). Slope: The present study catchment revealed a slope degree ranging from 0 to 58 • , as illustrated in Figure 5.…”

India’s water resources are under tremendous pressure due to elevated demand for various purposes. The over-exploitation of these valuable resources has resulted in an imbalance in the watershed ecology. The application of spatial analysis tools in studying the morphological behaviour of watersheds has increased in recent decades worldwide due to the accessibility of the geospatial database. A morphometric analysis of a river basin is vital to determine the hydrological behaviour to develop effective management. Under the current study, morphological behaviour of Nand Samand catchment in the hard rock region was evaluated employing remote sensing (RS) and geographical information system (GIS) tools. The Nand Samand catchment (Rajasthan State, India) has an area of 865.18 km2 with the highest and lowest elevations of 1318 m and 570 m above mean sea level, respectively. This study utilises a 30 m high-spatial-resolution ASTER imagery digital elevation model for delineating the catchment. The drainage network is assessed using a GIS method, and morphometric parameters like linear, areal, and relief aspects were calculated. Results were obtained for parameters viz., basin length of 82.66 km, constant channel maintenance equal to 0.68 km, stream frequency of 2.11 km−2, drainage density of 1.48 km−1, and length overflow of 0.34 km. Form factor of 0.13, and the circulatory ratio of 0.28 showed that an elongated shape characterises the study area. The results would help understand the relationship between hydrological variables and geomorphological parameters for better decision-making. The techniques used could effectively help to perform better drainage basin and channel network morphometric analyses. The found morphometric characteristics will be helpful in understanding the Nand Samand catchment and similar areas in India in order to better guide the decision-makers in providing adequate policy to the development of the region.

“…The circularity ratio is defined as the ratio of basin area to the extent of the circle having the same perimeter as the basin (Miller, 1953;Ali and Khan, 2013). The circularity ratio is a 104 -88 53 (2A), 2020: et al Fatah Iraqi Geological Journal 95 dimensionless parameter that is used as a quantitative technique for measuring and determining the shape of the watershed and varies from zero for elongated basin and up to one for the spherical watershed (Veeranna et al, 2017). The circularity ratio calculated by the formula below:…”

“…The constant of channel maintenance is defined as an inverse of drainage density, and can be calculated by the equation below (Kumar, 2013). The constant indicates the number of km² of watershed surface requisite to improve and sustain a stream of one km long (Veeranna et al, 2017). The constant of channel maintenance calculated by the formula below:…”

“…The relief ratio was termed as the ratio of total watershed relief divided by the maximum watershed length determined adjacent to the main stream line (Schumm, 1956;Pareta and Pareta, 2011). The high value of relief is due to steep slope and high relief basin, whereas low value indicates hard rock and gentle slope (Veeranna et al, 2017). Relief Ratio calculated by the equation below:…”

The present research attempts to study detail morphometric analysis ofHarrir and Shaqlawa watersheds in the northeastern part of Erbil city, north of Iraq. The areas of the watersheds are 350 Km² and 223 Km² for Harrir and Shaqlawa, respectively. To achieve the aims of this study, the ALOS PALSAR Digital Elevation Model data, and Geo-information (Remote sensing and GIS) techniques were used for determining and analyzing morphometric parameters in terms linear, aerial and relief aspects. Several tools in ArcGIS 10.4 software were utilized for preparing and producing maps, analyzing and assessing various characteristics of the parameters. The main results show that there is a strong inverse relationship between stream order, number and length of the stream in the watersheds of the study area by R² values (R² = 0.78 and 0.81 of Harrir watershed and R² = 0.8 and 0.79 for Shaqlawa watershed, respectively). The watersheds are elongated in shape with dendritic, sub dendritic to parallel drainage patterns. Moreover, detail morphometric analysis shows that the watersheds have a low runoff, low permeable material, and moderate slope. The structural geology and climatic parameters of the study area have influenced the landform development and stream behavior in the watersheds. Hence, the present study is useful and essential for watershed management and planning rainfall harvesting.
