The lowest level to which a stream can erode its channel?
The base level is the lowest point to which a stream can erode its channel. This can be the level of the body of water into which the stream flows, such as a lake or ocean, or an artificial structure like a dam. At base level, erosion stops and sediment deposition begins.
Ultimate base level?
The base level of a river or stream is the lowest point to which it can flow, often referred to as the 'mouth' of the river. For large rivers, sea level is usually the base level, but a large river or lake is likewise the base level for tributary streams. All rivers and streams erode toward sea level, which is also known as the "ultimate base level." If a river is dammed, a new base level (the level of the reservoir) replaces the ultimate base level. As a result, the stream's base level is raised. Consequently, this reduces the stream's velocity, leads to deposition, and a reduction of the gradient upstream from the reservoir. A rather rare exception can be seen in the Jordan River, for which the base level is the Dead Sea, 417 m below modern sea level.
What is Crater Lake in Oregon a example of?
Crater Lake in Oregon is an example of a caldera lake, which is a lake that forms in the depression of a volcano's collapsed magma chamber. It is unique because it is the deepest lake in the United States and known for its exceptionally blue and clear water.

Is Australia below sea level?

The lowest elevation limiting stream erosion is called?
The lowest elevation limiting stream erosion is called the base level. It refers to the point at which a stream can no longer erode its bed any lower. This can be either sea level for rivers that flow into the ocean or a lake level for rivers that flow into a lake.
Why is a oxbow lake often temporary?
Often the oxbow lake will get covered with weeds, fill with soil and disappear.
