Ravine System
A Ravine System is a network of deep, narrow valleys formed by the erosion of soil and rock, often by water flow. These systems can be found in various landscapes and are characterized by steep sides and a V-shaped profile. They play a crucial role in drainage, directing water from higher elevations to lower areas, which helps prevent flooding.
Ravines can also support diverse ecosystems, providing habitats for various plants and animals. The presence of a river or stream within a ravine can enhance biodiversity, as the water source attracts different species. Additionally, ravine systems can be important for soil conservation and maintaining water quality in surrounding areas.
