Want this question answered?
whats the anwer?
it is gradient, discharge and load.
what are three factors that affect rate of stream erosion
as slope increases erosion rate increases (direct relationship)
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.

rate of stream discharge is directly proportional to the erosion i.e the higher the velocity of the stream then it will erode the rock rapidly while the deposition process will be slow when the velocity will be high.

what factor determine the rate of weathering
water, logging, and construction
As runnoff travels it forms tiny grooves and as a stream runs down erosion happens as the rocks get carried away. Poops
erosion of the banks of the pond
Decay rate and rate of regrowth
