rečna erozija / river erosion

Rečna erozija je proces, pri katerem tekoča voda (reke in potoki) izdolbe, odnaša in oblikuje zemeljsko površje. Vključuje poglabljanje rečne postelje (globinska erozija) in širjenje rečne doline (stranska erozija).

River erosion is the process by which running water (rivers and streams) carves, removes, and shapes the Earth's surface. It involves the deepening of the riverbed (vertical erosion) and the widening of the river valley (lateral erosion).
