Auteur :

Description :
Lithology, through its influence on sediment production, may have an important effect on the size of alluvial fans and, hence, on fan-basin morphometric relations. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the influence of lithologic erodibility on the relation between alluvial fan area and drainage basin area.
