When the discharge of a stream increases what happens to the streams velocity?
When a stream's discharge increases, erosive energy increases.
What happens after stream discharge increases?
After a stream's discharge increases, it overflows its banks and a flood occurs.
What happens when stream temperature increases?
It freezes.
What happens after a stream discharge increases?
After a stream's discharge increases, it overflows its banks and a flood occurs.
What happens to the gradient of a stream as one gets closer and closer to the head of the stream?
increases
What happens to the rate of stream erosion As slope increases?
as slope increases erosion rate increases (direct relationship)
What happens to the size of the sediment a stream normally carries when it flows from a mountainous area to a flatter area?
The sediment size carried by the stream increases. EW
What happens when the speed of a stream increases?
Things that would cause a stream to move faster would be how large the stream is, how much material is in the stream and how much of a slope the stream is at. Things blocking the stream would also cause it to move slower.
What is the relationship between stream erosion and kinetic energy?
It is direct, and the amount of stream erosion increases, kinetic energy increases also.
What happens when wbc increases?
wht happens if WBC increases?
Why one stream could be flowing faster than the other stream?
The velocity of the water in a stream increases when the stream gets narrower or shallower (or both).
As surface runoff increases stream discharge will do what?
increase
