How do weathering erosion and deposition effect hill country?
yes
Describe the two major processes by which a river changes the land?
Deposition and erosion are two major processes by which a river changes the land. Erosion is the combination of weathering and deposition in which the water loosens and moves the land to another place.
What effect will weathering erosion and deposition have in South Texas brush country?
it will ruin the land
What are the Effect of deposition on earth features?
The effect of deposition is erosion
How does slope affect erosion and deposition?
A steep slope will experience accelerated erosion and a low level of deposition because water moves more rapidly on a steep slope than on a lesser slope. Rapidly moving water has more energy in it will exert a greater force on the slope causing particles to become carried away and for this reason the rate of erosion is higher and the rate of deposit is lower. On a lesser slope, the water moves more slowly and does not have as much energy to carry particles away. The lesser the slope, the slower the water moves, the less energy it has and the rate of deposit is higher.
What is formed from the deposition of sediments from a river flowing down the slope of a mountain?

How do the contour lines on a topographic map indicate the slope of land?
If the contour lines are far apart, then that indicates the land has a gentle slope (low slope).
