What else can I help you with?
Where do rivers and steams deposit sediment?
in a delta
When do steams erode sediments?
Steams erode sediments when they flow with enough force to pick up and carry sediment particles along their path. This erosion is often more pronounced during periods of high flow, like after heavy rain events or during snowmelt, when streams have more energy to transport sediment.
What is the deposit of sediments parallel to the shore?
beach
. Eskers are glacial features formed when .?
Steams flowing in tunnels beneath glaciers deposit sand and gravel
What does river deposit mean?
accumulated sediments on the bottom of the river
When sediments fall out of a glacier they create a deposit called what?
Drift and/or till.
What glacial deposit composed of sediments with many shapes and sizes?
till
What are the materials deposited by water wind and melting glaciers?
Water can deposit sediment such as sand, silt, and clay. Wind can deposit smaller particles like sand and dust. Melting glaciers can deposit a mixture of rocks, sediments, and debris known as moraines.
How do sediments lay when they deposit in lakes or oceans?
When sediments deposit in lakes or oceans, they typically settle in layers on the bottom of the body of water. Over time, these layers can build up and form sedimentary rock.
What was the most probable agent of erosion that deposited the unsorted sediments in deposit b?
Glacial ice is the most probable agent of erosion that deposited unsorted sediments in deposit B. Glaciers can transport a wide range of sediment sizes and mix them together as they move, resulting in unsorted sediments.
In lowland areas wind and water deposit sediments that form thick soils?
no
What are four features of the ocean?
turbidity currents deposit sediments on the ocean floor
