HI Janet,
can you specify what you mean by 'fully connected stream network'? 'connected' doesnt mean much on a raster map or did you convert it a vector? I would try to build your stream network from the accumulation raster map by thresholding it with a certain catchment size (in cells). Eg.
r.mapcalc exp='streams=if(accumulation>1000, 1, null())'
That way you see what is happening in the accumulation map as a result of the DEM.
Best,
Michel

Hi Will,
When running r.watershed on a small 35 hectare watershed, it produces a fully connected stream network. However, when running r.watershed on a 6400 hectare watershed, the stream network is not fully connected. No preprocessing with regards to merging different raster maps, however, I did try using r.fill.dir first to deal with any possible depressions that might be causing non-connected stream segments.
thanks,
Janet

    Hi Janet,

    Can you give some more information about what you mean by larger
    watershed basins?  Did you do any preprocessing of the elevation
    raster before you tried to extract the stream networks?  Were you
    using an elevation raster that had been merged from different
    rasters?  I've ran into issues in the past where "seams" along the
    original edges of a raster resulted in odd stream networks.

        Hi GRASS community,
        When creating a stream network with r.watershed, I end up with
        some isolated stream segments - particularly in larger
        watershed basins. Does anyone know how to generate a stream
        network that is fully connected, or how to correct this issue?
        thank you,
        Janet
