Science Concept: Friction between water and stream banks causes water to move in a corkscrew fashion. This helical flow is called a water spiral. Gravity and the water spiral are responsible for erosion and deposition in streams. | Science Concept: Friction between water and stream banks causes water to move in a corkscrew fashion.
