Abstract

are connected at the end of the basin and form the Darbadam River. According to the results obtained for the central angle, in the first part between 2010 and 2021, the Meandri River pattern was developed and there was no change in the pattern class, but in the second and third parts in 2010, the river pattern is not developed meandering, which in 2021 has become the developed meandering river pattern

Based on the average curvature coefficients in all three sections studied, the Darbadam River has a meandering pattern. Due to the characteristics of the region, such as the presence of resistant rock layers, the high slope of the region and also the mountainous topography, has led to low transverse displacement of meander in the region. However, in some parts of the river, due to human activities, including land use change, vegetation degradation and overgrazing, there has been a change in the river pattern.
