What is a river current?
The current caused by the flow of a river downstream under the influence of gravity.
Why does the water depth increase downstream?
Water depth increases downstream due to a combination of factors such as the accumulation of flow from tributaries, reduced friction along the river bed, and the energy gradient of the river. As the river flows downstream, it gains more volume and velocity, resulting in higher water depth.
What speed does a river flow at upper course?
the river is steeper as the river flows downstream. addie x
What is the upstream of a river?
