ABSTRACT The hypsometric curve integral is a common useful index to infer the topographic evolution stage of a basin. And the hypsometric curve is also generally identified to represent the three-dimension at geomorphologic characteristic which is suffered by structure process, climate, and complex geologic conditions. Unfortunately, as we have known, hypsometric curve and its corresponding hypsometric curve integral are not a one-to-one relation but the two different types of hypsometric curves may be with the same hypsometric curve integral. So, the study presents that the hypsometric curve and its integral will be affected by the shape and the relief of a basin simultaneously. By some simple fictitious uniform slopes, we found that downstream-ward contracted and expanded slopes have completely different types of hypsometric curve and the hypsometric curve integral. Besides, the study also surveys topography with different incision depth or headward erosion to find that how they influence the shape of hypsometric curves.
