What causes river to rejuvenated?
A river rejuvenates when there is an increase in gravitational potential energy. It causes the river to erode its bed vertically to achieve equilibrium with the slope of the landscape.

What are the two causes of stream rejuvenation?
Streams are rejuvenated when they are suddenly brought far above their base level, after having evolved closed to base level. Rejuvenation can occur either by changes in base level (such as sea level changes between ice ages and warmer periods) or tectonic changes in the elevation of the land (uplift or subsidence.
