Abstract:
The area (Dohuk Dam Lake Basin) is located with area of (140) km2 within the District of Dohuk in Dohuk province, and is bordered from the north by the Mountain Bekhir, and is bordered to the south by Jabal al-Abyad, while from the east it will be surrounded by the Strait of Bessari, and west by The District of Simel, while coordinately the area lies between two latitudes (36,54,500 - 36,60,000) north, and longitudes (10 42 49 42-00 60 42) east, and the importance of the study lies in the study of the Dohuk Dam Lake basin by studying its physical geographical characteristics of the area that The primary foundations for the study of landforms. In addition to the geomorphic study of the region using topographic maps, space images and field study, for the purpose of identifying the units and landforms of the region. To achieve this, following the inductive and analytical approach with the aim of gaining a comprehensive understanding of the basic determinants of the research. It begins with data collection, through the development of basic rules in interpreting region variables. The study found that the region has different landforms in its morphological characteristics and has been divided according to its origin into structural erosional landforms Constructional, sedimentation landforms, Karstic landforms and landforms resulting from the mass movement.
