Why do mature rivers carry a lot of water?
Mature rivers carry a lot of water due to their extensive drainage basins, which accumulate runoff from surrounding landscapes and tributaries. Over time, they have eroded their channels wider and deeper, allowing for increased flow capacity. Additionally, mature rivers often experience consistent precipitation and have a well-established system of groundwater recharge, which contributes to their volume. These factors combine to create a robust flow of water, especially during periods of rainfall or snowmelt.
Is it true streams carry a greater load of sand and gravel as they leave a mountain range than the resulting river will carry across the lowlands?
