ZABALA HYDROGRAPHIC BASIN - THE MORPHOMETRIC ANALYSIS OF THE HYDROGRAPHIC NETWORK

Zabala Hydrographic Basin - The morphometric analysis of the hydrographic network. The South-East Carpathians are one of the most geodynamic regions of the Romanian territory. The rivers draining the South-East Carpathians have been studied under the aspect of the latest alterations of the main valley outline. An important database has been collected using the Horton- Strahler classification system, which has later been processed carefully concerning the rivers draining the South-East Carpathians, and a great deal of information has been extracted. What is more, the evolution of the hydrographic network has been related to the geological and tectonical states. Excellent results have been obtained by correlating the morphometric features of the hydrographic network with the geological and tectonical conditions of the studied area.
