Study Notes
Drainage Patterns
- Tributaries join larger streams at acute angles in a trellis drainage pattern.
Formation of Drainage Patterns
- Trellis drainage pattern typically develops in areas of folded mountains.
- The development of a drainage system depends on the underlying rock structure and tectonic activity.
Characteristics of Drainage Patterns
- Parallel drainage pattern develops in regions of uniform slope and homogeneous rock type.
- Dendritic drainage pattern most resembles the branches of a tree in terms of its pattern.
