Problem 2
If a stream originates at 6000 meters above sea level and travels 2500 kilometers to the ocean, what is its average gradient in meters per kilometer?
Problem 4
Streamflow is affected by several variables, including discharge, gradient, and channel roughness, size, and shape. Develop a scenario in which a mass wasting event influences a stream's flow. Explain what led up to, or triggered, the event and describe how the mass wasting process influenced the stream's flow.
Problem 5
Describe and explain what happens to a stream's ability to erode during periods of (a) drought and (b) heavy precipitation. Suggest other factors that could change a stream's ability to erode other than a change in precipitation.
