The capacity of a stream is the maximum load it can carry. Capacity is directly related to a stream's discharge. The greater the volume of water in a stream is, the greater its capacity is for carrying sediment. So if a stream's discharge decreases, the stream's capacity also decreases.

The 3 main types of glacial erosion are plucking, abrasion and freeze thaw.
Limiting development on floodplains is effective in controlling floods because this allows floodplains to absorb floodwaters without harm to structures
differential weathering
bed load and suspended load
During the ice ages, icy glaciers covered much of the continents.

During the recent ice age, glaciers covered almost 30 percent of earths land.
moisture is lacking and organic acids are scarce ;D
