The concept of representative basins arises out of the supposition that a country or an area may be broken down into a number of different hydrological regions, each with physical factors such that it contains some degree of hydrological uniformity. Usually one catchment or basin selected within each region as representative and is used for long-term and intensive study of `... specific problems of the hydrological cycle...', geological and hydro-geological characteristics.
