PPT-Rivers As a stream forms, it

Rivers As a stream forms it erodes soil and rock to make a channel Over time the stream transports rock and soil downstream making it longer and wider A streams ability to erode is influenced by 2 factors.

Stream Load Classifications. Bed load. : Sediments moving predominantly in contact with or close to the stream bed.. Suspended load. : Sediments that move primarily suspended in fluid flow but may interact with bed load and is comprised primarily of silts and clays and sometimes sand. Suspended load has a continual exchange between sediment in fluid flow and on the bed as it is constantly being entrained from the bed and suspended while heavier particles settle out from the flow to the bed. .

Total load (visible and invisible). - running water is the most effective agent of erosion. - gravity draws surface water downhill, which allows the water to erode soil and rock materials. - rivers also eventually leave their eroded materials behind, which we refer to as . Tigris and Euphrates Rivers Both rivers begin in Turkey and flow south through Iraq. In southern Iraq, the two rivers join to form one waterway. That waterway, Al- Arab Shatt, empties into the Persian Gulf.
