Question 139702 • RMA FL-2001310-Earth/Space Science Semester 2
A downpour adds more water to the river, increasing its volume and usually its velocity. Faster, larger flow can erode more of the streambed and carry larger or different sediment than a light drizzle. The river’s slope does not change just because rainfall increases, and its volume does not decrease.
