A Well, with the same volume of water; yes. Q With the same volume of water; and vice versa, if your bed fills, the same volume of water would make it higher? A I did not get that last. A Yes, that would be true vice versa. Now, the scour-ing out of the cross- section changes all the velocity. The third class ( indicating) is an indication, or approximate in-dication, of the relation between stage and velocity of the river, showing the -- Q Well, just explain that in non- technical language.
