For Geomorphological Study:
Drainage density (Dd) expresses total stream length per unit drainage area. It depends on climate (mainly rainfall), geology, vegetation cover, erosivity, infiltration capacity and permeability of underlying rock and soil, relief and slope aspect of the basin (Horton, 1932; Strahler, 1964; Morisawa, 1968; Verstappen, 1983). Drainage density are quietly depends on the stage of evolution. With the progress of youth stage towards maturity, Dd increases rapidly; while towards old stage it decreases.

What is the meaning of density in Hindi?
Density in Hindi is translated as "घनत्व" (Ghanatva). It refers to the mass of an object per unit volume and is a measure of how closely packed together the particles in a substance are.
Is a drainage basin a open system?
Drainage Basins are open systems. This is because they are open to input from outside the system. For example: Rain which evaporated from outside the system, could travel through the atmosphere, before dropping as precipitation (rain/snow) into the drainage basin. This means extra water has entered the system. Drainage basins also lose water. This is because all drainage basins fuel a river, which then leads to the sea. This means water escapes the system. An example of a closed system is the hydrological cycle.
