What happens to the flow velocity and erosive power of a stream during a high discharge event if levees have been created to confine flow to the channel? (Remember Q = wdv) 
A)  Velocity increases because the width does not increase, and the erosive power increases. 
B)  Velocity increases because depth does not increase, and the erosive power increases. 
C)  Velocity decreases because the depth of the channel is significantly greater, and the erosive power increases. 
D)  Velocity decreases because the depth of the channel is significantly greater, and the erosive power decreases.
