1. The document discusses various hydrological concepts including erosion, sediment deposition, watersheds, discharge, load, gradient, porosity, permeability, turbidity, temperature, dissolved oxygen, pH, and nutrient pollution. 2. Key terms defined include discharge, load, gradient, porosity, permeability, and turbidity. 3. The effects of changes in discharge, load, and gradient on erosive energy are explored.
