- Synopsis
- This page shows two images of a river valley, a plan view at the top and a cross section at the bottom of the page. There is a locator dot shown, which will be at the top left, when the image is the correct way up. Each image is surrounded by an image border. The image in the top of the page shows the river slowly winding its way along a wide valley. The valley is much wider than the river. The river goes from one side of the valley edge to the other and back again. The land rises on the left and right. A dashed line from A to B shows where the cross section is taken on the bottom image. The cross section image shows how flat the valley is. It is filled with alluvium (a fine muddy material sometimes called silt) that has built up from when the river floods and deposits mud and silt.
