Abstract

The research is aimed at studying the quantitative laws of the morphological pattern dynamics for alluvial plains. Basing on the random process theory - the renewal process theory, we substantiate that in the course of the development despite constant changes such as generating new packages, erasing old packages, changing of the number of a package, some features of the morphological pattern remain the same. They are the length distribution of the arrows for the preserved (non-erased) package fragments, the duration distribution of the presented cycles, the distribution of the number of erased cycles, the distribution of the rotation angle of the bend. It is the case of the dynamic balance. The empirical testing confirmed the verifiable model conclusions at 13 out of 14 key sites: the packages within the alluvial plains have the exponential distribution with a shift of package arrows. Thus, the empirical data proves the state of dynamic balance for the alluvial plain morphological pattern.
