Why does water flow in rivers and streams?
Water flows in rivers and streams due to the force of gravity pulling it downhill. The water follows the path of least resistance, moving from higher elevations to lower elevations, creating the flow that we see in rivers and streams.
Why do streams and rivers cause erosion?
They Create Deltas.
What happens after the evaporated water flows into streams or rivers?
The rivers flow increase.
Why do most rivers have wider channels than streams?
Streams are merely tributaries of rivers. A river is the wider channel into which smaller creeks, streams and rivers flow. (Streams do not flow out of rivers.) Streams carry water from higher sources, emptying into the river. As more streams empty into a river, it tends to become broader, simply because of the greater volume of water it is carrying.
Where did the Hupa tribe get their water?
from streams and rivers that flow down mountains
Which is a way thst groundwater depletion affects streams?
Groundwater depletion can lower the water table, leading to reduced base flow in streams. This decrease in base flow can impact stream ecosystems, aquatic life, and water quality. Additionally, it can increase the risk of stream drying up during dry periods.
Rivers and streams that flow into a larger river are known as?
Rivers and streams that flow in to a larger river are called tributaries. They all form in the same spot.
What is unusual about the rivers and streams that flow into this area?
Which area?
Where do estuaries exist?
Where rivers and streams flow into the sea.
What is it called when a rivers brakes up into streams?
It is usually the other way round. Moving in the direction of water flow, streams merge together to form larger rivers, the streams are called the river's tributaries. The point of joining is called a "confluence".
What is the difference between streams and rivers and ponds and lakes?
Streams and rivers flow down a long path and ponds and lakes stay in one place and not flowing like streams and rivers.
Average rainfall of rivers and streams?
The average rainfall on rivers and streams can vary significantly depending on the location and climate of the region. Rainfall typically replenishes river and stream flow, providing a consistent source of water. Areas with higher average rainfall generally have more water flowing in rivers and streams compared to areas with lower average rainfall.
