Stream Density Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary
Formula Used
Stream Density = Number of Streams/Catchment Area
Ds = Ns/Acatchment
This formula uses 3 Variables
Variables Used
Stream Density - Stream Density is the length of all channels within the basin divided by the area of the basin.
Number of Streams - Number of Streams “Ns” of given order per Sq. Km.
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.
STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit
Number of Streams: 12 --> No Conversion Required
Catchment Area: 2 Square Meter --> 2 Square Meter No Conversion Required
STEP 2: Evaluate Formula
Substituting Input Values in Formula
Ds = Ns/Acatchment --> 12/2
Evaluating ... ...
Ds = 6
STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit
6 --> No Conversion Required
FINAL ANSWER
6 <-- Stream Density
(Calculation completed in 00.004 seconds)

4 Stream Density Calculators

Number of Streams given Stream Density
Go Number of Streams = Stream Density*Catchment Area
Catchment Area given Stream Density
Go Catchment Area = Number of Streams/Stream Density
Stream Density
Go Stream Density = Number of Streams/Catchment Area
Length of Overland Flow
Go Length of Overland Flow = (1/2)*Stream Density

Stream Density Formula

Stream Density = Number of Streams/Catchment Area
Ds = Ns/Acatchment

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 Stream Density?

Stream Density calculator uses Stream Density = Number of Streams/Catchment Area to calculate the Stream Density, The Stream Density formula is defined as the length of all channels within the basin divided by the area of the basin. Stream Density is denoted by Ds symbol.

How to calculate Stream Density using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Stream Density, enter Number of Streams (Ns) & Catchment Area (Acatchment) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Stream Density calculation can be explained with given input values -> 6 = 12/2.
