loading in a graded stream 42
4.1 The loading 42
4.2 Correlation of the two indices 44
Chapter 5 Alluvium cover 48
5.1 Alluvium cover recognised 48
5.2 The travel velocity of alluvium 51

Page
Chapter 6 The deposition curve derived from the
loading curve 56

6.6 The deposition curve 71
6.7 A classification of graded streams 77
6.8 The characteristic diagram of a stream 78
Chapter 7 Recognition of grade 79
Chapter 8 Floor erodibility and the mobilisation
of coarse-particled alluvium 83
Part III The stream realised
Chapter 9 The synthesis of a stream from know-
ledge of its basin environment 86
Chapter 10 The channel properties of gravel streams 92
Chapter 11 The channel properties of sand streams 99

Chapter 13 The longitudinal profile of equilibrium 126
Chapter 14 Nickpoints 128
Chapter 15 Gravel transformation along the stream 139
15.1 Stage 1 gravel transformation: size
reduction through wastage alone 140
15.2 Stage 2 gravel transformation: size
reduction through non-arrival of the
largest particles travelling, resulting in
the formation of regime break points 150
Page
Chapter 16 Gravel rounding 162
16.1 A theory of gravel rounding 164
16.2 The rounding theory applied to quartz
gravel in a humid tropical environment 171
