∙ 13y agoThe power of a river to cause erosion and carry sediment depends on several factors. A river is a dynamic system. A river's slope, volume of flow, and the shape of its stream bed all effect how fast the river flows and how much sediment it can carry.

True
Is this true or false When a river slows down and deposits its sediment load smaller particles of sediment are deposited first?
true
What is the sediment and other deposits picked up as a result of abrasion called?
The rocks, sand, and silt eroded by a river is called the "load."
What is a river's load?
material that a river carries along E.g (stone, grass & rocks)
What are the conditions needed for a river delta to be formed?
river looses velocity, and deposits it's load (river looses velocity when it enters a river or lake) heavy material is deposited first and silt last. for a delta to be formed there must be deposition of sediments and distribution channels. delta are formed when the river deposits it alluvium at the mouth of the river and then the river forced to split.
Alluvial tracts of land at mouth of river formed by river deposits?
Alluvial deposits are river/stream deposits, whether they are found at the mouth of the river or anywhere along its length. In some cases, the alluvial deposits at the mouth of a river can form a delta.If this is not what you wanted to know, please rephrase the question. As it stands, this is an incomplete sentence with a question mark at the end of it.
What is a plain bordering a river formed by river deposits?
A floodplain.
What is the mother load?
in gold mining you have 2 types of deposits. a placer deposit is gold that has eroded from a vein and been redeposited by water in a stream or river. a load deposit is gold still in place in the vein.when miners would find gold in a stream they would search for the load or vein that produced the placer deposit.since the load was where the gold came from its reffered to as the mother load.
What would happen at the mouth of a river with a river's suspended load and bed load?
A river's suspended load and bed load may accumulate at the river's mouth and form a delta. It is a land form created by the deposition of sediments.
What do Streams and river deposits include?
glaciers
Definition of a river delta?
A river delta is a landform created by the deposits of sediment at the mouths of a river.
