3) b) Draw the profile for the data represented by the table using an appropriate scale. Be sure to properly label the axes. Questions- Station #4 1) (a) What does the paper represent in the pothole activity? (b) What does the pen represent? 2) Describe the process by which potholes are created. 3) What evidence do you observe for this process having taken place? 4) From completing activity 1b, what might you infer about the length of
time it takes to form a pothole? Explain: 5) (a) Calculate the gradient between flag 1 and flag 4 at Station 4 in the space below: (Show all work and units) (b) Record the gradients calculated for the stream at Station 1 below. Station 1, location A gradient ____________________ Station 1, location B gradient ____________________ (c) How do these differences in gradient between Stations 1 and 4 help explain the presence of potholes at Station 4 and their absence at Station 1? 6) (a) Does the surface water from the stream account for all of the water in the pothole area? (b) Based on your observations of the running water at this station, where is this water coming from?
