Drainage reorganization in the Danube and Rhine basins
Drainage basins are dynamic features of the Earth surface. The area of drainage basins is controlled by the longterm interaction of tectonic forces and surface processes, but is at the same time constrained by the available surface area, e.g. of an island or a continent. Drainage basins thus compete for space against each other, which can lead to interesting feedbacks of drainage basin changes and surface processes.

Many have probably waited for this. And here we go. Let’s try out TopoToolbox’ Python version. Our aim will be to calculate flow depth along the Big Tujunga river and display the results along with a longitudinal river profile. We do this by combining TopoToolbox functions implemented in the Python language and GraphFlood (Gailleton et al., 2024), which is Boris Gailleton‘s excellent steady-flow solver. GraphFlood is written in C++ and is part of libtopotoolbox, the computational core of TopoToolbox 3.
