Document Summary
Topic 66: flowing water is constantly reshaping the landscapes and its erosional and depositional paintings create specific land paperwork over the earth surface. Three stages of the river are u degree, v level, delta stage. Waterfalls are found in the higher direction of a river. They commonly arise in which a band of hard rock lies next to tender rock. Waterfalls develop while a trade of lithology (rock type) takes region alongside the river"s route ensuing in differential erosion. As the river flows over the resistant rock, it falls onto the less resistant rock, eroding it and growing a more height distinction between the 2 rock types, generating the waterfall. Braided channel formed while the river is break up into several channels separated by way of islands. This characteristic is evolved with huge loads of sand and gravel. It is on the whole arise when a river has variable discharges. The landforms made by the rivers have 3 ranges.
