Catchment Area given Stream Density Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Catchment Area = Number of Streams/Stream Density
A_catchment = Ns/D_s
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Catchment Area - (Measured in Square Meter) - Catchment Area is an area of land where all water flows to a single stream, river, lake or even ocean.
Number of Streams - Number of Streams “Ns” of given order per Sq. Km.
Stream Density - Stream Density is the length of all channels within the basin divided by the area of the basin.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Number of Streams: 12 --> No Conversion Required
Stream Density: 6 --> No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

A_catchment = Ns/D_s --> 12/6

Evaluating ... ...

A_catchment = 2

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

2 Square Meter --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

2 Square Meter <-- Catchment Area

What is Stream density ?

Stream density is the length of all channels within the basin divided by the area of the basin. Stream density is one of the most important characteristics for evaluating potential runoff. A drainage basin with a large number of tributaries has a higher stream density than a basin with very few tributary streams.

How to Calculate Catchment Area given Stream Density?

Catchment Area given Stream Density calculator uses Catchment Area = Number of Streams/Stream Density to calculate the Catchment Area, The Catchment Area given Stream Density formula is defined as the ratio of the number of streams “Ns” of a given order per sq. km to that of stream density within a basin. Catchment Area is denoted by A_catchment symbol.

How to calculate Catchment Area given Stream Density using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Catchment Area given Stream Density, enter Number of Streams (Ns) & Stream Density (D_s) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Catchment Area given Stream Density calculation can be explained with given input values -> 3 = 12/6.

FAQ

What is Catchment Area given Stream Density?

The Catchment Area given Stream Density formula is defined as the ratio of the number of streams “Ns” of a given order per sq. km to that of stream density within a basin and is represented as A_catchment = Ns/D_s or Catchment Area = Number of Streams/Stream Density. Number of Streams “Ns” of given order per Sq. Km & Stream Density is the length of all channels within the basin divided by the area of the basin.

How to calculate Catchment Area given Stream Density?
