Our transcription: The impact of rivers on the landscape is often spectacular.
They can gouge out deep canyons, create gentle valleys with verdant meadows, or build enormous deltas.
In creating these diverse landscapes, all rivers function in the same manner.
They erode, transport, and deposit sediment.
These processes enable rivers to continuously reshape the surrounding land.
