Wikipedia

  1. Whitewater

    Whitewater forms in a rapid context, in particular, when a river's gradient changes enough to generate so much turbulence that air is trapped within the water. This forms an unstable current that froths, making the water appear opaque and white. The term "whitewater" also has a broader meaning, applying to any river or creek that has a significant number of rapids. The term is also used as an adjective describing boating on such rivers, such as whitewater canoeing or whitewater kayaking.

  1. whitewater

    Whitewater refers to a section of a river where the water is turbulent, frothy, and fast-moving due to underlying rocks, sudden drop-offs, or other geographical features causing the water to churn or become aerated. It gets its name from the white, bubbly appearance the water takes on under these conditions. Whitewater is often popular for water sports such as rafting and kayaking.
