Question:

If you start at the top of the stream and go to the botttom when will erosion, transfer and deposition occur?

Author: Asger LIndberg-Nielsen



Answer:

Threee zones: Headwater: erosional area because of high velocity Transfer zone: high enough to transfer but not to erode Depositional zone - close to the sea. Velocity is low due to decline in slope and a lot of sediment is deposited here.
