| Summary: | In a geographical analysis on a pilot area, the study of the interdependence between the road network density and drainage density can offer us important details concerning the characteristics and causal relationships between geomorphology and configuration of the existing road network. The present study aims to be one of applied geography for an area with historical meanings.The pilot area for my researchis located in the central-eastern part of Romania, in the internal part of the Carpathian arch. I used the classical methodology of the linear regression described in literature. The research was conducted through the cartographicanalysis of
the two indicators, which are completed in this study by the mathematical analysis and graphics. The conclusion derived from the correlated analysis is that the road network density is in a closely
dependent relationship with the drainage density, the correlation being linearly negative and inversely proportional, fact proved by the resulted graphical models. |
