Abstract: Topographic map evidence is used to interpret Des Moines River-Missouri River drainage divide area landform origins in Clarke, Lucas, and Monroe Counties, Iowa. Major Missouri River tributaries in the Clarke, Lucas, and Monroe County region are south-southeast oriented Thompson River and southeast oriented Chariton River with its east oriented Chariton Creek headwaters. Directly north of the […]
Abstract: Topographic map evidence is used to interpret landform origins in the Chariton River-Grand River drainage divide area located in Lucas, Decatur, and Wayne Counties, Iowa. The Chariton River flows in an east, northeast, and southeast direction in south central Iowa before entering the state of Missouri and then flowing in a south direction to […]
Abstract: Topographic map evidence is used to interpret landform origins in drainage divide areas between Chariton River tributaries and between the Chariton River and Mississippi River tributaries located in Appanoose County, Iowa. The Chariton River flows in a southeast and south-southeast direction across Appanoose County and south of Appanoose County flows in a south direction […]
Abstract: Topographic map interpretation methods are used to interpret landform origins in the Grand River-Chariton River drainage divide area located in Chariton County, Missouri. The Grand River and Chariton River are south-oriented tributaries flowing to the southeast-oriented Missouri River with the Grand River located west of the Chariton River. Mussel Fork is a south-oriented Chariton […]
