Abstract
Objectives: Analysis of the morphological characteristics of the Akash Valley basin located in western Iraq within the Anbar desert, most geological formations in the valley are mostly due to the third and fourth time and evaluating the hydrological reality of the valley basin through the morphological analysis of the water drainage network. Method: the inductive and analytical approach, the adoption of methods, quantitative methods, mathematical standards, and spatial information systems software. Results: The valley basin is characterized by a high -drainage water network, and in all its main and secondary basins, and the estuary area in the valley is characterized by being vulnerable to flood due to the lack of river ranks and their palace and the valley is considered in the youth stage. The results of the Morphometer analysis also showed that the rate of elongation reached (0.4) and the percentage of the consistency of the area reached (0.04), while the ocean cohesion rate (5) and the pelvic form factor reached (0.17) Conclusion: The stream is characterized by a very large drainage network, and it is in its active and active session, and it is characterized by the terrain and climatic characteristics that produced it and a valley is running in the winter, especially during the peak of rainy days. The study also recommends conducting many studies related to water harvesting in the Wadi Akash basin to benefit from its surface and underground water and not to waste and lose it and benefit from it through the application of water harvesting technology because of the great importance in future investment in various fields, especially since the world is about to a future water crisis, particularly Iraq Because all sources of his waters are external
