How can a property of water contribute to its ability to change stream corridors and affect erosion and deposition patterns?

Water Shapes the Watershed Changes in runoff can increase erosion and sedimentation of the land surface. Excessive runoff can cause downstream flooding and accelerated erosion of the land.

explanation:

plate tectonics and volcanic euptions

over time, plate tectonic processes cause continents to move to different positions on the globe.

for example, britain was near to the equator 300 million years ago, and therefore was hotter than it is today. for further details look at our climate through time poster or online map.

the movement of the plates also causes volcanoes and mountains to form and these too can contribute to a change in climate.

mountain ranges formed by plate tectonics. large mountain chains can influence the circulation of air around the globe, and consequently influence the climate.   warm air might be deflected somewhere cooler by the mountains.
