Fluvial System Block Diagrams
--
I was looking to understand a fluvial system the other day, up in the high Arctic, as I looked at 3DEP remote sensed elevation dataβ¦ I have always been fascinated by the how geology, water, weather shapes a landscape, including erosion (aka geomorphology if you will) β and realized how very much value fluvial block diagrams have as we try to conceptualise what has, is and will happen(ed.)
