How does changing the slope of the stream table produce different results?

Changing the slope of the stream table affects the speed and direction of water flow. A steeper slope creates faster water flow, which can result in more erosion and deposition. Conversely, a flatter slope slows down water flow, leading to less erosion and deposition. These changes in flow dynamics can cause differences in the shape and size of channels, as well as the amount and distribution of sediment carried by the water.
