River Processes: Deposition and Channel Characteristics
Tracing the journey of a river from source to mouth and the depositional processes that shape its valley.
Key Questions
- Explain the conditions under which a river deposits its load.
- Analyze how a river's channel characteristics (e.g., width, depth, velocity) change downstream.
- Differentiate between the processes of transportation and deposition in a river.
