Is the water quicker at the source or mouth?
at the source because it's narrow and steep so it has a track which keeps it long and fast
What are five land formed by river erosion?
The processes of erosion and deposition create different river landforms. River landscapes change as you go downstream from the source to the mouth. In the upper course of a river, steep gradients lead to rapid-flowing rivers. In the middlecourse, the river meanders through gentle gradients.

Does gradient of a stream increase or decrease downstream?
Decrease. The source of the river is usually in a mountainous area with a steep gradient.
What are the features of a river channel that has a steep gradient?
If a river channel has a steep gradient, the river flows faster and has more erosive energy.
What is a name for steep-sided river valley?
a mature river
What does the River flow velocity depends on?
the gradient and how much friction there was. The gradient means how steep the land the river is on so if it is very steep them the velocity will be higher.
What is the name of a high steep wave forced along a river?
A river Bore.
Why is the upper river and its fast flowing steep valley suitable for animal grazing?
why is the upper river with its fast flowing steep valley suitable for animal grazing
Why do upland river valleys have steep sides?
Upland river valleys have steep sides because of the erosive power of the river cutting into the surrounding land over time. The river erodes the sides of the valley, creating the steep slopes. Additionally, the geology and underlying rock composition in upland areas can also influence the formation of steep-sided valleys.
A steep sided river valley is called?
A canyon.
A steep rapid in the Nile River is called a?
Cataracts
