When does Deposition of stream load occurs?

Deposition of stream load occurs when the velocity of the stream decreases, causing the stream to lose the energy needed to carry sediment. As a result, sediment particles are deposited on the streambed or banks. This typically happens in areas where the stream's slope decreases or the stream widens.


Which is stronger polar jet stream or subtropical jet stream?

The polar jet stream is generally stronger and faster-moving than the subtropical jet stream. The polar jet stream forms at higher latitudes and is located closer to the poles, while the subtropical jet stream is located at lower latitudes. The polar jet stream is associated with larger temperature contrasts and stronger pressure gradients, resulting in stronger winds compared to the subtropical jet stream.
