DO NOW: Take our LIE Hurricane Article and Notes from Friday.
2
Do Now Describe the relationship between the factors listed below 1. Stream Velocity and Slope 2. Stream Velocity and Discharge 3. Stream Velocity & Sediment Size
3
How can we go downhill faster? On a bike, rollerblades, sleds, ski’s…
4
Who will move FASTER? Why _____________
5
1. SLOPE / GRADIENT ( steepness): Slope _______; Stream Velocity ( ) ____; Kinetic ( ) Energy _____; Transported particle size _____.
6
Where do rivers travel FASTEST? At the Source or the Mouth?
7
FASTEST = SOURCE ; STEEPER= EROSION SLOWEST = MOUTH FLATTER=DEPOSITION DELTA / ALLUVIAL FAN forms
8
The other factor affecting Stream Velocity is: _____________________ Discharge
9
Stream Velocity ___ Discharge Slope Stream Velocity ___ Kinetic EnergyStream Velocity ___ Particle Size Stream Velocity ___
10
State the relationship between Erosion and Deposition. Erosion- Deposition-
11
Factors That Affect Deposition:
13
Which will be deposited First?
14
Sediment Shape: Which will be deposited FIRST? Why?
15
Which Mineral will be deposited First? Why? MineralDensity Quartz2.65g/cm3 Halite2.16g/cm3 Galena7.60g/cm3
16
RELATIONSHIPS Deposition Increases when …. Sediment Size ___ Roundness ___ Density ___ Velocity ___ Slope ___ Discharge ___
17
River Delta
18
