Definition: River erosion is a process through which the riverbed, banks and rocks are worn away. There are 4 key types of river erosion: 1. Attrition |
The four main types of river erosion are abrasion, attrition, hydraulic action and solution. Abrasion is the process of sediments wearing down the bedrock ... |
Attrition: The velocity of the river causes rocks to collide and break fragments off one another. This causes rocks to become smoother and more rounded. |
River erosion by four main processes - hydraulic action, abrasion, solution, and attrition - wears away the river bed and banks and breaks down carried ... |
Erosion is the process of wearing away the rock and soil found along the river bed and banks. Erorsion also occurs through the breaing down of the rock ... |
There are four main different processes of erosion in a river: abrasion, attrition, hydraulic action and solution. Abrasion is when large particles (stones and ... |
The Helicodal flow (cock screw like flow of water that goes through rivers) causes surface water to flow towards the outside bank which causes lateral erosion ... |
Erosional processes such as hydraulic action and abrasion occur as the river flows downstream, however differential erosion takes place as the softer rock ... |
Meanders are formed in the middle course of a river. As the river gains more velocity, the water is pushed to the outside of the river causing more erosion. |
