0 a higher area between the valleys of streams or rivers:
Interfluves are areas of high terrain located between valleys.
In the Danube-Tisza interfluve, lakes are threatened by environmental problems.
Cultivation in the interfluves has increased.
The area has well-drained interfluves.
The cycle starts with minor creeks or gullies, which are formed to drain the excess rainwater on a widespread interfluve area.
The interfluve surface shows the presence of many abandoned channel belts which receive no sediment or water from any major river system.
The major rivers incised in the regional surface neither contribute the sediment nor control the depositional processes of upland interfluve areas.
The active channels of the upland interfluve regions are small to moderate in dimension, and are groundwaterfed streams originating within the alluvial plain.
The deposits of the upland interfluve area are highly oxidized, and show prominent mottling.
