Figure 16. Predicted Zpwm vs- HydrolK-derived (Hydrolk 2005) Zi,m for the small Himalayan tributary streams of the Seti (Gray squares) and Kali Gandaki (black filled circles) from Garzione et al. (2000a,b). Predictedz mis estimated from the measured isotopic composition with la model uncertainties, and lo deviations about the hypsometric mean elevation. Note from Figure 14 that as the drainage basin decreases in size and as the sample elevation increases that Zpwm and Zi,m become essentially identical. Figure 16.
