EROSION BY RIVERS

THROUGH EROSION, A RIVER CREATES VALLEYS, WATERFALLS, FLOOD PLAINS, MEANDERS, AND ____________ LAKES.

OXBOW

THIS IS AN EXAMPLE OF?

THIS IS AN EXAMPLE OF?

WATERFALLS

HOW ARE WATERFALLS FORMED?

A RIVER FLOWS OVER AN AREA OF HARD ROCK THAT ERODES SLOWLY, THEN OVER A SOFT ROCK THAT ERODES MORE QUICKLY.

WHAT IS THIS AN EXAMPLE OF?

THIS IS AN EXAMPLE OF?

MEANDER

WHAT CAUSES A MEANDER?

WATER FOLLOWS THE COURSE OF LEAST RESISTANCE. IT WILL FLOW FIRST WHERE ROCK/SEDIMENT IS EASIER TO ERODE.

WHAT IS THIS AND WHY DID IT FORM?

OXBOW LAKE

USUALLY FORM DURING FLOODS WHEN WATER FINDS AN EASIER WAY DOWNSTREAM AND CUTS OFF THE OLD MEANDER.

WHAT IS THIS AN EXAMPLE OF?

ALLUVIAL FANS

STREAMS FLOW OUT OF A STEEP NARROW MOUNTAIN VALLEY AND SUDDENLY SPILL INTO AN OPEN, FLAT AREA OR WATER SOURCE

WHAT AND WHERE?

DELTA

EXPLAIN HOW A DELTA IS FORMED.

SEDIMENT THAT IS DEPOSITED BY A RIVER THAT FLOWS INTO A LAKE OR OCEAN BUILDS UP INTO A LAND FORM.
