    Gradient refers to the ratio of fall in elevation to the horizontal distance traveled.

    A low gradient stream can suddenly be converted into the high-gradient stream when flows pass over the edge of gradually destroyed rock surface as it passes to a low level.

    The inclusion of rock during the motion of the stream can change its gradient by altering its velocity.
