FRACTAL ANALYSIS OF BALTA BRAILEI (original) (raw)

In the analysis of the geographical forms, the attractors may have a determined role because of their complexity. The geographical forms don't respect the Euclidian dimension, distinguish through discontinuity, division into fragments, irregularity, are governed by uneaven laws and shaped by strange attractors. The fractal dimension can become an important element in the analysis of the evolution of some relief forms, the degree of stability or its complexity, and in distinguishing sole local differences. One can notice in Balta Brailei (Braila's Wetland) a tight connection between the fractal dimension and the distribution, on arms, of the solid and liquid discharge, but also with the coefficient of the arms' sinuosity. Thus, the arms having the highest fractal dimension have the highest coefficient sinuosity and are transporting the biggest part of the liquid and solid discharge in suspension.
