التحليل المورفومتري لتحديد أولويات الصيانة في الأحواض الجنوبية الغربية لسلسلة جبل آكري

Abstract

Water erosion-prone areas within conservation watersheds, whichare one of the basic components of the environment, is necessary, especially at this time when there are many wrong interactions with humans and their improper dealings with the environment and its components. Since it is not possible to carry out integrated maintenance on large areas at the same time, attempting to determine the water erosion levels as a basis for determining maintenance priorities using morphometric variables is one of the effective means to speed up the maintenance process and achieve its framework. This study aims to draw a map of water erosion levels and highlight their spatial variations in the southwestern basins of the Aqra mount chain. To achieve this end, the study focused on the topographical characteristics and the drainage network as they are more closely related to water erosion, and then calculating the value of their variables in river basins by applying the square grid method, and the study reached a set of results, the most important of which are: The mean gradient is one of the most influential morphometric variables on the amount and levels of water erosion
