GCSE Geography- Rivers Notes (a complete comprehensive guide!)

I got a level 8 in GCSE Geography after revising from this resource!

A comprehensive, exceptional-quality booklet of clear, easy to understand notes on GCSE Geography- Rivers, created by a level 8&9 GCSE Student in accordance with the OCR Geography syllabus. The resource is also suitable for other exam boards like Edexcel and AQA as they are essentially the same.

Buy this and my other six sets on the remaining Geography topics in a discounted bundle! See my shop for more.

The resource includes essential content from the GCSE course, laid out in an intelligible and straightforward manner. The pack also includes areas where students can fill in the blanks and add their own additional research. This often proves to be helpful in learning content.

I often found the GCSE textbooks to be overwhelming and visually intense, so the resource was created to combat this- it obviously worked!

I have also been using this resource in A Level Geography.

Content included:

• The River Course- areas and definitions
• River Landforms- waterfalls, gorges, interlocking spurs, estuaries, slip off slopes, oxbow lakes, flood plains and levees
• Erosion- vertical vs. lateral, hydraulic action, abrasion, attrition, solution
• Deposition- why it occurs
• Transportation- traction, saltation, suspension, solution
• Causes of Flooding
• Flood Management- soft and hard management
• Hydrographs
• Case Studies- Boscombe (Cornwall), The River Tees

I also have many other note packs for different areas of GCSE geography! Bundle packs will be available.
