The water is the same - but the pressure and temp in the environment are different - the water will boil or freeze as it flows....but the formations are analagous to those created by flash floods - the water is constricted to a narrow channel where the slope is steap and forms a delta on the gentler slope when it slows and can no longer carry the embedded materials...the water cannot be absorbed either if it is fast flowing...
Looks good to me...
