the Rhine

Goals of last lesson

1. You can explain the relationship between meanders and the flow speed in the Upper Plain
   (W9, W10, G90). 
2. You can explain in 3 steps how an oxbow lake is created (W11, G90).
   
3. You can use a map to show the watershed between two catchment areas (G120).

HORST &

GRABEN

G121: Fall and gradient

Fall: The difference in altitude between two points along a river.

Gradient: The fall per kilometre.
