Describe how a reduction in energy may lead to sediment sorting. (6) - Sorting is the process by which the standard deviation of clast size within a sediment becomes reduced. - High energy environments (e.g. shallow marine) are able to transport a large range of sediment sizes by traction, saltation, and suspension. - When energy is reduced larger particles are deposited, but finer material continues to be transported, therefore continuing the sorting process. - Sorting may occur by LSD, on ...

This resource is a full set of revision notes on the CCEA AS topic of rivers. It includes subtopics such as processes that shape fluvial environments, drainage basin processes above and below the surface, discharge and the storm hydrograph, river processes, factors affecting velocity in the river channel, erosion, transportation and deposition, hjulstrom curve, river landforms (waterfalls, rapids, pools, riffles, meanders, oxbow lake, floodplain, levees, delta), river management (channelistaion,...
