Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: One aspect of the importance of this research is that it provides comprehensive information and integrated data on geology and hydromorphometry, and focuses in particular on several topics, including how to benefit from seasonal rains and exploit them in the best way to supply the Smaquli Dam reservoir. It is discovered that the basin has hydromorphometric characteristics, including the characteristics of the water network, drainage characteristics, areal characteristics, formal characteristics, topographic characteristics, and drainage pattern. It was also discovered that the water basin is of the sixth order based on the (Strahler) method, the drainage shape, and a rectangular pattern. Based on Strahler method, it is also digital elevation model (DEM) with a resolution of (x1414) meters, which is the area of one pixel, is used in the hydromorphometric analysis of the Smaquli Dam reservoir as a basis for geological and hydromorphometric analysis of the reservoir in northeastern Iraq.
