Question
identifying factors that affect erosion
which conditions resulted in the erosion of larger rocks, like the one circled in the image? check all that apply.
□ low gradient, low velocity
□ low gradient, high velocity
□ low gradient, high volume
□ high gradient, low velocity
□ high gradient, high velocity
Erosion of larger rocks requires more force. High - gradient means a steeper slope which can increase the velocity of the eroding agent (like water). High velocity also means more kinetic energy to break and move larger rocks.
