 World Rivers Review, December 1996
The drainage area of Chitose river is low-lying, especially between Chitose city and Ebetsu, situated at the confluence with the Ishikari.
During floods, the Chitose cannot flow easily to join the main stream of the Ishikari, because the water level of the Ishikari becomes as high as that of the Chitose.
Furthermore, because most of the Chitose's alluvial lowland is topographically lower than the water level of the Chitose during the flood, the area suffers inundation, caused by the rain water which cannot drain to the river.
