Science - Geology | | German term or phrase: Umlagerstrecken | Text about a wild river:
Am I right in thinking that a river with "Umlagerungen" or "Umlagerungsstrecken" is a "braided river"? |
| | | English translation:Areas of redeposition | Explanation:
A braided river is one with several channels which may be the case in your text, but not necessarily.
I would say that "Umlagerungen" here is simply "redeposition". |
