There are two main sources of stream erosion: hydraulic action and abrasion.

These heightened characteristics increase both the potential of stream erosion and heavier stream load (Knighton, 1998).

The cycle of erosion was a model for stream erosion and landscape development proposed by William Morris Davis in the late 19th century.

Valley or stream erosion occurs with continued water flow along a linear feature.

These are subsequently modified by modern (Holocene) stream erosion and deposition.

Each period of uplift caused stream erosion, which cut more deeply into the plateau surface.

All have been dissected by late Tertiary, pre-Pleistocene stream erosion.

Although there is evidence of stream erosion near the equator, the moon's methane lakes are located near the poles-primarily the northern pole.

Regional periods of terrace formation likely mark a time of when stream erosion was much greater than sediment accumulation.

This is the last phase of the 2350 BP eruption, and subsequent stream erosion has cut though this lava flow to form a waterfall.
