| This criterion is basic so that aggradation does not disturb the harmony of the landscape. |
| The transition from fluvial aggradation to subsequent fluvial downcutting records base level lowering most likely associated with structurally driven surface uplift. |
| More recently, Maddy et al. suggested that aggradation and incision in river valleys can be explained by climate-induced changes in sediment and water supply. |
| The stream loads will likely experience almost continual aggradation and ablation. |
| In addition to that, high quantities of bedload can result in riverbed aggradation blocking the channel and, hence, cause flooding. |
| Further downstream, where tributaries add more material to the river, aggradation may be more common than degradation. |
