bifurcation ratio — in a drainage basin, the relationship between the streams of one order of magnitude and those of the next highest order, obtained by dividing the number of lower order streams with the number of the higher order. The lower the number the… … Geography glossary
Bifurcation diagram — In mathematics, particularly in dynamical systems, a bifurcation diagram shows the possible long term values (equilibria/fixed points or periodic orbits) of a system as a function of a bifurcation parameter in the system. It is usual to represent … Wikipedia
River bifurcation — (from Latin furca , fork) is the separation of a stream into two parts. The creation of distributaries are the consequences of bifurcation. Bifurcation ratioOne quantitative measure of a drainage basin is the bifurcation ratio. Robert E. Horton… … Wikipedia
