What are the characteristics of the dendritic drainage pattern?
It resembles tree branches. It occurs on uniformly resistant rock.
Mississippi River
What real location is an example of a dendritic drainage pattern?
San Andreas
Mount Rushmore
What are the characteristics of a radial drainage pattern?
Streams diverge outward from a central point. It occurs on conic shapes like volcanoes
Volcanoes
calderas
What real life location is an example of a radial drainage pattern?
Mount Rainier
Appalachians mountains
Mount Whitney
What are the characteristics of the rectangular drainage pattern pattern?
Streams have large bends due to presence of faulting and jointing; river follow follow the fault
squares and geomorphologies
What real life location is an example of a rectangular drainage pattern?
Incorso plain
San Andreas fault
What are the characteristics of the trellis drainage pattern
trelllis
Parallel main streams with right angle tributaries. Occurs on valley and ridge geomorphologies (folded sedimentary rock)
What location is a real life example of a trellis drainage pattern?
Mount Everest
Bald Mountain
Appalachian Mountains
Mount Kilamanjaro
What are the characteristics of the deranged drainage pattern?
Not patterned. Characterized swamps and disappearing streams. Associated with karst and glacial depositional features
