How does gradient affect the flow of water?

Gradients are typically the lowest at a rivers mouth, and highest at its headwaters. The higher the gradient, the faster the stream flows. Channel shape and texture. The shape and roughness of the channel also affect the velocity of the flowing water.

Does the gradient affect the stream morphology?

The gradient is another important factor of stream morphology. This is a measure of the slope of the stream over a particular distance (the relief over the total distance of the stream).

What are the characteristics of high gradient streams?

A high gradient indicates a steep slope and rapid flow of water (i.e. more ability to erode); where as a low gradient indicates a more nearly level stream bed and sluggishly moving water, that may be able to carry only small amounts of very fine sediment.

What happens to the gradient as stream order increases?

As the order of the stream increases, the discharge increases, the gradient decreases, the velocity increases, and the channel dimensions (width and depth) increase to accommodate the increased discharge.

What factors impact stream channel morphology and dynamics?

Stream channels are scaled to the amount of water and sediment they convey. The amount and size of bed sediment, composition of bank material, type of channel vegetation (both riparian and in-stream), and valley morphology (slope and width) influence channel size and shape.

What are the different types of stream morphology?

Eight major morphological stream types can be identified (A, B, C, D, DA, E, F and G) using five initial definitive criteria: channel pattern (multiple-thread versus single-thread channels), entrenchment ratio, width/depth ratio, sinuosity and slope (Figure B-1 and Table B-1, Rosgen, 1994, 1996).

What does the stream gradient influence?

Water and sediment move more rapidly through streams with a steep gradient, while streams that are more gradual in slope may have slow moving water that allows sediment to settle to the bottom. Artificial changes to a stream gradient can create problems for sediment transport.

Which part of a stream commonly has the highest gradient?

The stream gradient is the downhill slope of the channel. For example, a gradient of 10 feet per mile means that the elevation of the channel drops a total of 10 feet over 1 mile of horizontal distance traveled. Gradients are typically the lowest at a rivers mouth, and highest at its headwaters.
