Description

Fluvial erosion/sedimentation is affected by climatic factors as well as geological factors - the impact on domains depends on the net amount of fluvial erosion/sedimentation caused by these two controlling sets of factors. The amount of fluvial erosion/sedimentation affects flowpath lengths and location, and characteristics of the biosphere.
