the base level of erosion is (a) ocean water surface (b) Ocean floor (c) river water surface (d) river bed
Answers
Answer:
The features found in the youthful stage of a river are all formed by the processes of Erosion. The river will erode downwards in its youthful stage. This is called vertical erosion. This leaves steep sides which are exposed to weathering which in turn loosens and eventually breaks up the rock and soil.
Answer:
In geology and geomorphology a base level is the lower limit for an erosion process.
An imaginary surface of irregular shape, inclined toward the lower end of the principal, or trunk, stream of a basin, below which the stream and its tributaries were presumed to be unable to erode.
More generally applied to the critical plane of erosion, represented approximately by sea level on coasts, which would be the lowest point toward which running water would usually erode.
