in Europe, centuries of agricultural practice have largely obscured the finer details, leaving only the larger elements of the scours clearly visible. The following are a number of images from various locations to illustrate flood features: Fig. 5(a) Dry cascade. This image shows the dry cascade and associated flow patterning north of the Junggar Pendi basin in western . This feature is over 100 Km in length. Fig. 5(b) Flood scour west of Balkash. This image shows a detail of the flood scour between Lake Balkash and the Aral Sea. The white flecks are scoured out depressions that have become dry lakebeds mineralized with white salts (According to IGRAC the this region is the largest and most strongly – – affected of all the World’s saline groundwater regions). The flow here was from east to west. Fig. 5(c) Turgai flood scour.
