'''Hack's law''' is an [[empirical relationship]] between the length of [[streams]] and the area of their [[Drainage basin|basins]].  If ''L'' is the length of the longest stream in a basin, and ''A'' is the area of the basin, then Hack's law may be written as

for some constant ''C'' where the [[exponent]] ''h'' is slightly less than 0.6 in most basins. Note that ''h'' varies slightly from region to region, and also slightly decreases for larger basins (>8,000 mi², or 20,720&nbsp;km²). A theoretical value ''h'' = 4/7 ≈ 0.571 for the exponent has been derived (Birnir, 2008).
