| Summary: | This study combines GIS and remote sensing technologies to analyze
geomorphological changes in the Tebessa basin, focusing on key indices such as
hypsometric integral (HI) and stream sinuosity (SS). The objective was to assess
how drainage anomalies and tectonic activity influence flow and relief patterns.
Asymmetry and topographic factors were incorporated into a geographic
information system, and the region was classified into four IRAT classes: high,
medium, low, and rank. Results identified highly deformed areas near active tectonic
anomalies, highlighting subsurface fault activity and its influence on river sinuosity.
A new diagram illustrates the spatial evolution of these structures, providing insight
into the region’s geological dynamics. The study also applied the TOPSIS method to
prioritize watershed areas based on tectonic activity, offering a comprehensive
analysis of the basin's geomorphological changes. |
