What causes most sediments to wash or fall into a river?
Erosion from land surfaces, such as rainfall, wind, and agricultural activities, can cause sediments to wash or fall into a river. Human activities like deforestation and construction can also contribute to increased sediment runoff into rivers.
What causes a river to deposit sediment?

Under what conditions would you expect abrasion to cause the most erosion of a riverbed?
Abrasion would cause the most erosion of a riverbed when there is a high concentration of sediment being transported by the river, when the sediment particles are angular and hard, and when the flow velocity of the river is strong and turbulent.
