This is a visual estimation of the Delaware River Basin, and my groundwork of which I am basing my 3D analysis of the watershed. Although the geological features are interpolated from digital images, the landscape difference from upstream to downstream is visually apparent.
The water of the Delaware River is mainly fed by precipitation from the Catskill mountains in the north. The low-lying, flat downstream river border does not have the luxury of the natural filtration. Supplemented by heavy urban and industrial development, the purity and biotic integrity of the river may suffer as a consequence.
