A stream Valley Land form is the most common result of what?
A stream valley is usually 'V' shaped, formed by erosion from a stream. A glacial valley is usually 'U' shaped, formed by the action of a glacier.
What type of stream valley would form in a mountain area?
A narrow V-shaped valley.
What is a deep valley on land form that forms a divergent boundary?
A rift valley
An example of a v-shaped valley?
Yosemite Valley in California is a well-known example of a v-shaped valley. It was formed by the erosive action of glaciers over thousands of years, resulting in steep valley walls that come together to form a V shape.
How are streams form?
Streams are formed when water cuts through the ground. This water wears away a path which then turns into a stream.
Where does the deep current that moves southward under the northward flowing Gulf of stream form?
In the water
Why doesn't a stream meander in mountains?
A stream flowing down a mountain is moving to fast to form meanders.
How must contour lines bend on a topographic map to indicate a stream valley?
Contour lines will bend and point upstream to form a "V" shape when crossing a stream valley on a topographic map. The V-shape indicates the direction of the stream flow and shows the gradual slope of the valley.
What is the name of the deep valley which lies along the east coast of Africa?
The deep valley that lies along the east coast of Africa is called the East African Rift Valley. It is a tectonic plate boundary where the African Plate is splitting into two, causing the valley to form.
How deep can a stream erode?
· The stream will erode down through its bed to achieve the base level of erosion throughout its course. If this base level is low, then the stream will rapidly cut through underlying strata and have a steep gradient, and if the base level is relatively high, then the stream will form a flood plain and meander. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stream
What is braided stream?
A braided stream is a stream that has small channel capacity with respect to its sediment supply. Basically, there is not sufficient room within the stream valley to deposit all of the sediment and therefore, small islands of sediment form within the stream giving it a braided appearance. Braided streams generally occur at high gradients.
