Section 13.2 Stream Erosion & Deposition Stream erosion The carrying away of rocks and land by running water That is how the grand canyon formed! !!!!

DepositionA river deposits or dumps material every time it slows down

Potholes Deep circular basins that were formed from running water that whirlpooled… …around and around

Transporting materials Suspension Material that floats when the water is in motion. It falls to the bottom when the water stops

Bed load

Delta A fan-shape of deposits at the mouth of a river………..wh ere it empties into a large body of water Why does it dump all of its material????
