Important Drainage Patterns
1. The drainage pattern resembling the branches of a tree is known as “dendritic” the
examples of which are the rivers of northern plain.
2. When the rivers originate from a hill and flow in all directions, the drainage pattern is
known as ‘radial’. The rivers originating from the Amarkantak range present a good
example of it.
3. When the primary tributaries of rivers flow parallel to each other and secondary
tributaries join them at right angles, the pattern is known as ‘trellis’.
4. When the rivers discharge their waters from all directions in a lake or depression, the
pattern is know as ‘centripetal’.
