Question

Using the strahler's method of stream ranking, calculate the bifurcation ratio of the dendritic pattern

Answer 1

Answer:

For example, if a drainage basin has 7 first order streams, 4 second order streams and 2 third order streams, then to calculate the bifurcation ratio you divide the number of first order streams by the number of second order streams (7/4=1.75), then divide the number of second order streams by the number of third order
