Struve's Law

Struve's Law describes a pattern observed in the Nile River’s flow behavior. It states that during periods of low water, the river tends to flow more vigorously on the eastern bank, while in high water periods, the flow shifts toward the western bank. This pattern is thought to result from seasonal and climatic influences that affect water levels and flow distribution across the river’s width. Understanding this law helps in river management, navigation, and predicting flood patterns by recognizing how water levels influence flow direction within the river channel.
