River Erosion and Sedimentation
Rivers erode the land through the force of flowing water, carrying sediments downstream. Erosion can lead to the formation of landforms such as canyons and river valleys. Sedimentation occurs when rivers deposit these sediments, creating fertile soil for agriculture.	Image Source
