Where is the stream eroding the bank?
Stream Bank erosion is the wearing away of the banks of a stream or river. This is distinguished from erosion of the bed of the watercourse, which is referred to as scour. The roots of trees growing by a stream are undercut by such erosion. As the roots bind the soil tightly, they form abutments which jut out over the water. These have a significant effect upon the rate and progress of the erosion.
What causes stream and valley erosion?
i think its the farts in this world
What is load and how does it affect erosion?
Stream Load is the amount of material a stream can hold as it flows. As a stream flows it causes erosion, and this erosion is carried about as material in the stream. As too much is eroded, the extra material will fall to the bottom, or push it's way to the sides.
What type of erosion causes a beach?
The type of erosion that causes sand is water erosion.
What affects stream erosion?
There are three factors that affect stream erosion. These are water velocity, shape, size and depth of channel, and stream capacity to transport eroded materials.
What causes a mature stream to develope?
wind erosion

Which most likely causes a stream to widen?
a stream is most likely widen by erosion

Does a mature stream causes erosion since it moves very slowly?
A mature stream causes more erosion than a young stream, due to the pure fact that theres more curve in a mature stream causing the sediments to shift more frequently.

How does the gradient of a stream affect how much erosion it causes?
It is because if a stream gets bigger, it is allowed to carry more sediment. More sediment means more erosion.
An area along a stream bank that helps prevent soil erosion is an example of?
a buffer zone
How do people cause erosion?
people cause erosion through a number of ways which include deforestation ,stream bank cultivation and cultivating on mountain slopes
Build a retaining wall to stop erosion along stream?
To build a retaining wall to stop erosion along a stream, you could begin by placing blocks of concrete or bricks along the base of the stream and up the bank on the side with the most erosion. Use large stones if concrete is not practical for the area. This will stop the water from removing soft sand.
What is the fastest form of erosion n?
stream erosion
There can be no stream erosion or glacial erosion without?
Wind
