The smaller the load a river has the more sediment it can carry?
The smaller the load a river has the more sediment it can carry is false. When the river has more energy, it is able to carry a larger load, therefore more sediment.
Can the smaller the load a river has the more sediment it can carry?
The smaller the load a river has the more sediment it can carry is false. When the river has more energy, it is able to carry a larger load, therefore more sediment.
Moving water in a river can pick up sediment and carry it along in a what kind of load?
bed load, a large load
Is this true or false When a river slows down and deposits its sediment load smaller particles of sediment are deposited first?
true
When a river slows down and deposits its sediment load smaller particles of sediment are deposited first. True or False?
True
When a river slows down and deposits its sediment load smaller particles of sediment are deposed first true or false?
True
How do a river slope and volume of affect the river sediment load?
The steeper the slope, the faster the water will run, and the more sediment it can carry.The larger the volume of water that is moving, the more sediment it can carry with it.
In what ways does a river carry it's load?
Fast-moving water actually lifts sand and other, smaller sediment and carries it downstream. Water dissolves some sediment completely. Most large sediment falls to the bottom and moves by rolling and sliding.
How do a river slope and volume of flow affect the river sediment load?
The steeper the slope, the faster the water will run, and the more sediment it can carry.The larger the volume of water that is moving, the more sediment it can carry with it.
How do river's slope and volume of flow affect the river's sediment load.?
The steeper the slope, the faster the water will run, and the more sediment it can carry.The larger the volume of water that is moving, the more sediment it can carry with it.

What is the quantity of sediment carried by a river?
sediment load
