Running water
Streamflow• Two types of flow determined primarily
by velocity– Laminar flow– Turbulent flow
• Factors that determine velocity– Gradient, or slope– Channel characteristics including shape, size,
and roughness

Running Water
Streamflow• Factors that determine velocity
– Discharge – the volume of water moving past a given point in a certain amount of time
Q = V x A (m3/s)
Changes from upstream to downstream• Profile
– Cross-sectional view of a stream
– Viewed from the head (headwaters or source) to the mouth of a stream

Changes from upstream to downstream• Profile
– Profile is a smooth curve
– Gradient decreases downstream
– Velocity
– Discharge
– Channel size

WORK OF STREAMS
1-Erosion , 2-Transportation, 3-Deposition
1-Stream erosion• Lifting loosely consolidated particles by
– Abrasion
– Dissolution
• Stronger currents lift particles more effectively
![Page 12: The hydrologic cycle. Running water Streamflow Two types of flow determined primarily by velocity –Laminar flow –Turbulent flow Factors that determine](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051316/56649f395503460f94c56369/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)

WORK OF STREAMS
2-Transport of sediment by streams:• Transported material is called the
stream’s load• Types of load
– Dissolved load– Suspended load– Bed load
• Capacity – the maximum load a stream can transport

WORK OF STREAMS
3- Deposition of sediment by a stream• Caused by a decrease in velocity
– Competence is reduced
– Sediment begins to drop out
• Stream sediments– Generally well sorted
– Stream sediments are known as alluvium
![Page 16: The hydrologic cycle. Running water Streamflow Two types of flow determined primarily by velocity –Laminar flow –Turbulent flow Factors that determine](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051316/56649f395503460f94c56369/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Deposition of sediment by a stream• Channel deposits ( mostly Sand & gravel)• Deltas• Floodplain deposits
– Natural levees – form parallel to the stream channel by successive floods over many years

Formation of natural levees by repeated flooding

Running water
Stream valleys: (1-Narrow V ; 2- Wide)• Features of wide valleys often include
– Floodplains
– Erosional floodplains
– Depositional floodplains
– Meanders
– Cut bank
