how does the gradient of a river affect how it flows?

The water in the river flows parallel to the gradient, and its speed varies directly as the magnitude of the gradient. It wouldn't take much imagination to simply say that the river's mean flow vector is parallel and proportional to its gradient vector. That's what I would say, since I haven't much imagination.
