Web alluvial fans are a conspicuous conical landform commonly developed where a channel emerges from a mountainous. Web alluvial fans form in areas with a steep gradient from a drainage catchment to the basin floor. Web alluvial fans occur where confined mountain streams open up into valleys or onto plains (figure 3). They are widespread in dryland. Web alluvial fans form in areas with a steep gradient from a drainage catchment to the basin floor whereas wadis in valleys form.
