Evolution
The term for erosion caused by stones in a river is called abrasion. This occurs when stones and pebbles carried by the river grind against the riverbed and banks, wearing them away over time.

Erosion:Wearing things down Hydraulic action:The force of water causes cracks on the bank Attrition:When rocks hit each other and wear down Abrasion:Rock wear away at the bank
Canyons, valleys, meanders, river terraces, and floodplains are five landforms caused by river erosion.
There is typically more erosion on the outer bends of a river where the current is strongest and more energy is available to move and erode sediment. In contrast, there is usually less erosion on the inner bends of a river where the flow is slower and sediment is deposited forming point bars.

Deposition, slip off slopes for river beaches and finely ground stones being deposed by the sea :)

Hydraulic action takes place in the upper course of a river. This process of erosion is to do with the force of the water against the beds and banks. There is also Abrasion/corrosion which is where the beds and banks are worn down by the river loads. It will throw tiny particles and stones sometimes at high velocity also causing the river to erode.
Through erosion and weathering.
Stones River Mall was created in 1992.
River stones, river rock, or skipping stones
Erosion effects the Mississippi river by causing collapse in the banks of the river. Erosion also causes the river to change course slightly as the banks change.
