(a) Elevation and longitudinal position of dams in southeast Australian catchments (elevation is given as a proportion of the maximum elevation upstream of the dam and distance upstream of the river mouth is expressed relative to the maximum stream distance from the catchments headwaters to the river mouth). (b) Cumulative proportion of dam volume and dam count with increasing valley confinement in southeast Australia.
