Is a flood plain created by erosion or deposition?
A flood plain is primarily created by deposition. When a river overflows its banks during periods of high flow, it drops sediment and debris on the surrounding flat area, building up layers over time. While erosion may shape the flood plain by cutting into it, the main process of flood plain formation is deposition.
Is outwash plain a cause of erosion or deposition?
It is cause of neither but the cause of aceleresitom or ace
What is the difference between the flood plain and the coastal plain?
A coastal plain is a streach of land along a seacoast which slopes down. In most cases it is an elevated part of the oceanfloor. A flood plain is the floor of river valley beyond the river bed. It is formed by mud, sand and silt
How are floods relate to weathering erosion and deposition?
Floods play a role in weathering, erosion, and deposition by carrying and transporting large amounts of sediment and rocks. During a flood, erosion occurs as flowing water removes and transports material. Deposition happens when the water slows down, causing sediment to settle. Overall, floods can accelerate the processes of weathering, erosion, and deposition by moving and redistributing Earth's materials.

How does flood water and low gravity affect erosion and deposition?
Flood water can accelerate erosion by carrying away large amounts of sediment and debris. In low gravity environments, such as on Mars or the Moon, erosion is typically slower due to reduced impact forces of flowing water. Deposition in flood waters is influenced by gravity, with heavier particles settling out first, while in low gravity environments, sedimentation may be less pronounced.
What comes first erosion or deposition?
weathering then erosion ,then deposition
What shaped earths surface?
Erosion and deposition shapes the Earth's surface.
How is a coastal plain created?
From the weathering, erosion, and subsequent deposition of sediments from inland mountain ranges as they make their way to the sea.
What comes first weathering erosion deposition?
weathering then erosion ,then deposition
What is the beneficial effect flooding has on a flood plain?
Deposition creates alluvial fans and deltas. It can also add soil to a river's FLOODPLAIN.
How do erosion and deposition affect a coastline?
Usually the matter is, how does erosion affect flooding, as cutting down woods causes increased erosion which causes more flooding. Floods of course affect erosion though, as huge amounts of soil/earth can be transported with the waters in a flood.
