Rivers - simple morphology and classification

Rivers are so important as they provide water for drinking and
agriculture.   They are also important as they move
mountains (over time) to the ocean!   In this episode, we
talk about the basic morphology of rivers - bedrock and alluvial
rivers as well as the concepts of young, mature, and old
rivers.  It is a very basic introduction to ways of looking
at rivers.
