Flood stage penn
The course a stream follows is typically the path of least resistance. For example, water runs downhill. Streams follow paths where natural run-off occurs during a rain, or when snow melts at higher elevations. Water flows easier by going around large boulders than going through the boulder (unless the stone is porous, such as sandstone). Water will not "climb" banks to go in a new direction, except when the volume of water exceeds the width and depth of its natural path, for example, during a flood.
The stream banks will be steeper
The sides are known as the river bank or river banks.
After a stream's discharge increases, it overflows its banks and a flood occurs.

She listened to the soothing sound of the stream as she sat by its banks.
A floodplain forms where a stream overflows its banks during periods of high water flow, depositing sediments and creating a flat, fertile area on either side of the stream channel. This area is important for natural flood control and supporting diverse ecosystems.
the natural resource found in the grand banks is oil and copper
Stream bank protection helps to stabilize the banks and prevent erosion by reducing the impact of flowing water and protecting the soil from being washed away. Methods such as planting vegetation, installing retaining walls, or using erosion control blankets can help to reinforce the stream banks and prevent sediment from entering the water, improving water quality downstream. This protection also helps to maintain the natural habitat and prevent further land degradation along the stream.
