| Abstract: | Abstract After defining the several terms that have come to be used to describe basins of various types this paper deals with some of the problems of basin studies. The relative sizes of different basins is one such problem, overland flow and interflow are others. Simulation of basins is considered, particularly the use of the Stanford Watershed Model and how this model can be applied to investigate changes due to urbanization and deforestation. The future role of representative and experimental basins is discussed. |
