The Gradient channel is the river's ability to erode, transport, and deposit load as the upper course of a river is linked with the steep gradient thus lots of velocity and energy are needed for the erosion and transportation to take place.
Movement of discharge is also an important factor in the river carrying capacity determined by the flow of gravity. As the middle and upper courses of the river have higher courses of water since they have upstream tributary than lower thus resulting in more energy to transport.
The velocity of the river is its speed to erode, which is the key to the stream have a higher carrying and eroding capacity when it's young as compared to that of the older stream's. Such as a river that is filled with pollutants or is contaminated has less load-carrying capacity.
The river has various tools it uses to break and deposit a load of contents at the downward side of the stream where water is less dense. As compared to the river that is denser.
farther the island is from the mainland, the fewer is the number of species found on the island.
Explanation:
The island biography explains the riches of the species and the factors that influence the diversification of species and thus this theory develops on the species areal relationships and was presented in 1960 by ecologist Robert H.
Because the Sun continues to 'burn' hydrogen into helium in its core, the core slowly collapses and heats up, causing the outer layers of the Sun to grow larger. This has been going on since soon after the Sun was formed 4.5 billion years ago.
