Abstract

This study aims to analyze the spatial variation of the Hypsometric characteristics of the Wadi (Tegran) basin, and to find the spatial relationship between the values of this characteristic and the values of the morphometric characteristics of the 35 secondary basins. The inductive approach and the spatial statistics method were relied upon to reach the goal of the study, and the tools of spatial statistical analysis in the (ArcMap) program were used, including spatial regression analysis.The study concluded that the shape of the main Hypsometric curve of the basin (Tagaran) indicates that the basin has reached an advanced stage of the geomorphological cycle, where we notice the clear concavity of the curve shape. the value of the Hypsometric integration was (0.28), which is evidence that the basin reached an advanced stage (monadnock)) of the stages of the erosion and sculpting cycle.Most of the secondary basins (21) have concave-convex Hypsometric curves, which are the equilibrium or maturation stage in the geomorphic cycle, The values of the hypsometric integration ranged between (0.36-0.47). It turns out that the values of the Hypsometric integration do not form a specific spatial model, And the spatial relationship between the values of the hypsometric integration and the quantitative characteristics of the secondary basins is negative and not strong.
