Note also that headwater dambos have a branching structure like rivers.
The upper portion of the reservoir, corresponding to a five-foot depth above the normal headwater level, is provided for surcharge storage.
Above the falls are dozens of small headwater streams that drain the surrounding uplands.
The valley is a deep one, the surrounding ridges rising to 3500- 4000, with peaks above in the headwater region.
The topography is generally still in its natural condition, with mountains and ridges forming the headwater of many streams from which originate various waterfalls.
Estimates are that 80% of the streams on the planet are first to third order headwater streams.
The headwater-forms are rather compressed or flat, the large-river-forms more convex and swollen.
Swamp tupelo grows in headwater swamps, strands, ponds, river bottoms, bays, estuaries, and low coves.
