• A V-‐shaped valley can be found in the youthful stage of a river. The wateris moving extremely fast in this stage which causes a large amount oferosion.
• V-‐shaped valleys are formed from different types of erosion whichinclude hydraulic action, abrasion and attrition.
• Vertical erosion occurs which creates steep sides to the river.
• The sides of the river are weathered away and mass movement carriesthe material down the slope and into the river.
• This material is now transported downstream in the rivers load.
Exam Paper 2007, Question 2c: Name and briefly explain one way that people use rivers.
Name @ 2 marks One explanation @ 3 marks( St 2mks + Dev 1 mk)
How do people use rivers?
• Tourism: people use rivers for fishing and cruising (Example: RiverShannon)
• Hydroelectric Power (HEP): people create dams across a river to produceenergy for the surrounding areas (Three Gorge dam in China and Inniscarrain Cork).
• Transport: people use rivers to transport heavy goods and people (RiverRhine is used to transport different materials throughout Europe).
of energy. These hydroelectric dams create reservoirs that are used for fishing, water skiing and other water sports. This may attract tourists to the area which would improve the local economy. These reservoirs also supply drinking water to the surrounding areas.
An environmental benefit of hydroelectric is that the energy is renewable. This means that it will never run out and people will always have access to this type of energy. It is also a very clean form of renewable energy as no air pollution is produced in the process. This allows the surrounding environment to be air pollution free.
