Where does a River erode sediment?
sediments are transported by ocean rift, streams, river currents, wind (air). they are deposited according to size. The largest sediments are deposited first. The sediments settle into the sand and are carried by the stream. Near the mouth of the stream where the water moves slowly the small sediments settle out. The larger sediments get carried by the river into the sea then the samller sediments. The sea water dissolved minerals and soak the sediments and cement together. This eventually forms sediments.
What is meant by a river's load and describe how the load is carried?
A river's load refers to the materials, such as sediment, rocks, and organic matter, that the river transports along its course. This load can be carried in several ways: dissolved load (minerals dissolved in water), suspended load (particles carried within the water column), and bed load (larger particles that roll or slide along the riverbed). The river's velocity and flow determine how much and what type of load can be carried, with faster flows able to transport larger particles.
Particles carried by a stream or river?
A load is the term for particles carried by a stream or river.
What we called fine sand soil or mud which is carried alnog by river?
Sediment is dirt, rocks, and sand carried by a river.
How do stream transport sediments?
Stream transport sediment in three ways, dissolved load, (ions in solution being carried downstream), suspended load, (suspended sediment that floats freely downstream) and bed load, (sediment that rolls or scoots along the bottom of the river).
What is the name for rock that is carried as dissolved load in a river?
Rock Snot
Is delta weathering erosion deposition?
A delta is an area where a river enters a larger body of water. Weathered particles are eroded and then deposited when the momentum of the river slows down. So a delta has to start with weathered particles and then the particles have to be eroded and then they are deposited. So a delta does involve all of these processes.
When a river looses velocity it cannot carry some of the sediments it carried before what are the result?
alluvial deposits that can form river deltas.
When a river slows down as it reaches the ocean sediments carried by the river are deposited.What kind of land form is created from the sediment?
It is called a delta
How do clay particles move along the river?
Clay particles are very fine grained and light weight, so easily carried along by flowing water.
A large amount of sediments deposited at the mouth of a river form what?
A large amount of sediments deposited at the mouth of a river can form a delta. Deltas are landforms created by the accumulation of sediments carried by the river and deposited as the river's flow slows upon entering a body of water, such as a lake or ocean.
What are fine bits of rock and soil deposited on land by a river?
Sediments, such as sand, silt, and clay, are fine bits of rock and soil that are deposited on land by a river. These sediments are carried by the river's current and then settle on the river banks and floodplains when the water slows down. Over time, these sediments contribute to the formation of fertile soil and landforms in river valleys.
