deepening Explanation: IMO -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 18 mins (2014-08-18 17:53:07 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- The water channel is made deeper from the word głęboki, głębokość, etc. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 4 hrs (2014-08-18 22:13:13 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- The context may even refer to overdeepening. For example, Overdeepening is a characteristic of basins and valleys eroded by glaciers. An overdeepened valley profile is often eroded to depths which are hundreds of metres below the deepest continuous line (the thalweg) along a valley or watercourse. This phenomenon is observed under modern day glaciers, in salt-water fjords and fresh-water lakes remaining after glaciers melt, as well as in tunnel valleys which are partially or totally filled with sediment. When the channel produced by a glacier is filled with debris, the subsurface geomorphic structure is found to be erosionally cut into bedrock and subsequently filled by sediments. These overdeepened cuts into bedrock structures can reach a depth of several hundred metres below the valley floor . http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Overdeepening ccccccccccccccccccccccccccccc The overdeepening theory in river morphodynamics http://www.researchgate.net/publication/242024461_The_overde... ccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccc Downstream and upstream influence in river meandering.
