Is a youth river always younger than a mature river?

Answer 1

Mature river is a river with a gradient that is less steep than those of youthful rivers and flows more slowly than youthful rivers. A mature river is fed by many tributaries and has more discharge than a youthful river. Its channels erode wider rather than deeper. An example being the Mississippi River.

Youthful river is a river with a steep gradient that has very few tributaries and flows quickly. Its channels erode deeper rather than wider. An example being the Ebro River.
