What are the boundaries of a watershed?
A boundary of watershed is defined by watershed divide. This is the ridge of uppermost elevation surrounding a stream or network of stream. Rainwaters that will fall outside of the boundary will enter different watershed and will flow to different bodies of water.
Bifurcation Ratio farmula for Drainage system?
Bifurcation Ratio (Rb) = ΣN / ΣN + 1 ΣN = Total number of stream of a particular order. ΣN + 1 = Total number of stream of a next higher order.
What is an the area of land in which water drains into a stream system?
drainage basin
How do you calculate the bifurcation ratio?
You add the number of streams that branch off the main stream which is the first order then you add the number of streams branching off that stream whih becomes the 2nd order and the sum of the no. of stream orders divided by the number of streams gives the bifurcation ratio.

What is a stream order?
1st order stream is a stream that formed Bc OF Spring and any water. and represent the first steam of the watershed
What is a first-order stream?
1st order stream is a stream that formed Bc OF Spring and any water. and represent the first steam of the watershed
How can a stream be part of more than one watershed?
a stream can be part of more than one watershed because streams go in different directions so they end up in different watershed +++ That doesn't really make sense. A stream can only start on one water-shed but it may pick up others as tributaries from different hills.
