What does the rate of stream discharge has to do with erosion and deposition?
rate of stream discharge is directly proportional to the erosion i.e the higher the velocity of the stream then it will erode the rock rapidly while the deposition process will be slow when the velocity will be high.
How is deposition and erosion different in a stream?
Thats what i wanted to know
What is it called when a fast moving stream slows down and deposits sediment?
It is called deposition. It occurs as friction or gravity overcomes the force of the moving water.
What could happen in nature to increase or decrease the slope of a stream?
An increase in rainfall can increase the slope of a stream by eroding the surrounding land and steepening the riverbanks. Conversely, a decrease in rainfall or the deposition of sediment along the streambed can decrease the slope of a stream by smoothing out its gradient.
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.
Where is deposition dominant?
Where the source of transportation is slowest.
Explain how stream deposition occurs?
Stream deposition occurs when a flowing stream loses energy, causing it to slow down and deposit sediment that it was previously carrying. This commonly occurs when the stream enters a flatter area, like a floodplain or a lake. As the stream's velocity decreases, it can no longer transport sediment, leading to deposition.
What are the results of deposition along the course of a stream?
stream turns into green water
What does the rate of stream discharge has to do with erosion and deposition?
rate of stream discharge is directly proportional to the erosion i.e the higher the velocity of the stream then it will erode the rock rapidly while the deposition process will be slow when the velocity will be high.
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.
What are the results of deposition along course of a stream or river?
stream turns into green water
What causes a stream to deposit some of its load?
deposition
Which change in a stream causes deposition?
A stream deposition occurs when, in the lower reaches, the flow of water (speed of flow) is reduced. Which is when the heavier sediment falls out and settles on the river bed.
What does floodpain mean?
flat land area adjacent to a stream, composed of unconsolidated sedimentary deposits (alluvium) and subject to periodic inundation by the stream. Floodplains are produced by lateral movement of a stream and by overbank deposition; therefore they are absent where downcutting is dominant. Any erosional widening of one bank is approximately equalled by deposition on the opposite side of the channel in the form of bar development along the inside of meander bends. Thus, the simplest floodplain is made up of a strip of sinuous scrolls immediately adjacent to the stream.

What is the process that takes place at the inside of a stream mender?
i think you mean stream meander. the process is deposition
What are the results of deposition along the course of a stream or river?
Deposition creates landforms such as alluvial fans and deltas.It can also add soil to a river.Hope this helps.
