Short-term dynamics of drainage density based on a combination of channel flow state surveys and water level measurements

Andrea Rinaldo, Jana Freiin von Freyberg, Izabela Bujak-Ozga

Headwater streams often experience intermittent flow. Consequently, the flowing drainage network expands and contracts and the flowing drainage density (DD) varies over time. Monitoring the DD dynamics is essential to understand the processes controlling i ...
