Which consequence results when increased sediment load exceeds capacity?

💡 Explanation

Braided stream channels result from increased sediment because decreased channel efficiency causes a widening and splitting of the flow via aggradation, rather than a stable channel arising from laminar flow or a constant base level; sediment transport processes dictate fluvial morphology.
