The permanence of stream networks in Britain: Further comments |
|
| Authors: | T P Burt J C Oldman |
| Abstract: | Previous surveys of the stream network in an area of blanket peat moorland in the Southern Pennines, England, are reassessed with reference to the publication of a new ordnance survey 1:10000 Metric Edition map for the area. It is concluded that a significant number of low order streams are still omitted on the new map, and that the use of field surveys remains essential in such heavily dissected terrain. |
