What is the definition of a system?
A network of rills, gullies, streams, and rivers in an area.
What is the definition of a river system?
A network of rills, gullies, streams, and rivers in an area.
How are rills and gullies similar and different?
Rills and gullies are both landforms formed by erosion caused by flowing water. The main difference is in their size and scale: rills are smaller and shallower, while gullies are larger and deeper. Gullies tend to be more pronounced and have steeper sides compared to rills.
The network of rills gullies streams and rivers in an area is called what?
The network of rills, gullies, streams, and rivers in an area is often referred to as a watershed or river basin. This system of interconnected waterways ultimately drains into a common body of water, such as a lake or ocean.
Rills gullies streams rivers and tributaries are all cause by?
Precipitation -- rain and snow cause flowing water in nature.
How do rills form gulies?
Over time, rills expand and join together causing gullies.
How are rills and gullies formed?
Rills are formed by erosion. As soil erodes a thin channel is left, this channel fills with water. Gullies are formed by running water. An area where many rills have formed can turn into a gully.
What is the correct order of for the process of water eroding soil?
sheet erosion, rills, gullies
What is the difference rill erosion and gully erosion?
A rill is a much smaller channel. A gully was once a rill that got broader and deeper. There are another differences too: 1- Ratio of width to depth: In gully that ratio is approximately 1:1 but in rills width is greater than itsdepth. 2- In agricultural activities, rills can be removed but gullies can not. 3- In specific area, number of rills are higher than gullies. 4- sediment production of gullies is much higher than Rills.
What are networks of rills and creeks and streams flow into a river?
floodplain
What statement best describes the process that forms a stream?
Tiny rills enlarge to form gullies, which join to form a stream.
What is the definition for rills?
Rills are a product of soil erosion by water, and can be defined as small incised channels in the soil that result from the actions of flowing water over an unvegetated or partially vegetated soil surface. They can be obliterated by tillage (ploughing over the rills). Where they are too large to be removed by tillage, they are referred to as gullies.
