Which phenomenon limits downstream sediment transport from glacial streams during colder seasons?

💡 Explanation

Reduced stream flow limits transport because decreased thermal erosion reduces sediment supply; thus, sediment mobilization is reduced influencing sediment transport capacity, therefore less downstream sediment transport occurs rather than increased flash floods.
