    Abbe , C. , Jr., 1899 , A gene ral re port on the physiography of Maryland : Maryland weather Service , p. 41-21€. Discusses physiography, landscape evolution, and drainage evolution of the Appalachians of Maryland . Abbe , c. , Jr., 1902 , The physiography of Garrett County, Maryland, in Garrett County, Maryland: Baltimore , Maryland Geological Survey , p. 27-54. Discu�ses physiography and structural control of landforms . Abrahams, A. D. , 1S85, Lithologic control of bedrock mea'lder dimensions in the Appalachian Valley and Ridg� province : A comment : Earth Surface Processes and Landforms, v. 10, p. 635-638. Braun's finding that the wavelength of bedrock meanders decreases as rock hardne5s increases is reconciled with Hack 's and Tinkler's finding that meander wavelength is greater in bedrock than alluvial channels. In populations of alluvial or bedrock channels, bank resistance cor.trols meander wavelength via its influence on channel shape and is negatively correlated wlth meander wavelength. In contrast, in mixed populations of alluvial and bedrock c�els, bank resistance controls meander wavelength through its effect on the recurrence interval of the channel-forming discharge and channel size and is positively correlated with meande r wavelength . Abrahams, A. D. , and Flint, J., 1983, Geological controls on the topological properties of some trellis channel networks : Geological Society of America Bulletin, v. 94, p. 80-91. It has been assumed, but never quantitatively demonstrated, that the topological properties of trellis channel networks are strongly influenced by the unde rlying geology. In this study , the topological properties of 7 trellis networks unde rlain by a plunging syncline are analyzed and compared with those of 45 deneritic networks.
