5)
What kind of streamflow is present in this image?
6)
How will the flow in this image affect erosion of the stream channel?
7)
Mark the locations of the headwaters and the mouth of the stream in this image.
8)
Using the information provided above, describe what changes will happen to the stream and its
streamflow as the water moves from the head to the mouth.
9)
What is the minimum velocity needed for a 0.8 mm sand particle transition from a state of
deposition to transportation?
10)
At approximately what velocity will a 0.1 mm sediment particle begin moving in the stream?
11)
A stream is transporting Particle A. The velocity of stream is decreasing, but for the moment,
Particle A is still moving. However, when the water drops below 60 cm/sec , Particle A falls
below its fall velocity and is deposited. Based on this information, what is the likely particle size
for this object?
12)
Label the cutbank and point bar on this image.
13) In the space provided, draw the development of an oxbow lake. Make sure to label meander
loops, cutbanks, oxbows, cutoff channel, and point bars.
14)
What is the name for the stream feature in this image? How did it form?
15)
Using the cross-section in this image, indicate which layers are the foreset, bottomset, and topset
beds.
