What is Erosion?. Erosion is defined as removal of rocks and soil by wind, water, ice and gravity.. Wind, water, ice and gravity are also known as the agents of erosion.. Weathering vs. Erosion . Weathering. The breakdown do the materials of Earth’s crust into smaller pieces.. Physical Weathering. Process by which rocks are broken down into smaller pieces by external conditions.. Types of Physical weathering. Earth’s Surface. Weathering, Erosion, and Deposition. from Ice, Water, and Wind. Weathering, Erosion, and Deposition. Weathering?. Erosion?. Deposition?. Wea. thering is the breaking down and . wear. Earth’s Changing Surface . Earth is a constantly changing body affected by . natural forces. :. On the . Inside. :. Plate Tectonics . = moving of Earth’s Plates driven by . convection currents. Earthquakes & Volcanoes. 10.4. Erosion. Water, in either gas, liquid, or solid form can change the surface of the earth, it can even carve . rock. !. Erosion is the . transportation. of broken down rock fragments (sediment) by water, glaciers, gravity, and wind. It can happen slowly or . formation of landforms. weathering and erosion. The process of weathering and erosion are the main forces behind landscape types. . However, they are not the only reason for a plain, plateau, or a mountain region to form. . Weathering. Weathering is the process that breaks down rock and other substances at the Earth’s surface. . Heat, cold, water, and ice all contribute to weathering.. Repeated freezing and thawing for example can crack rock apart into smaller pieces. . Scenario #1. Flood water pounds against a canyon wall and wears it down.. Weathering. Scenario #2. Rain washing soil away from a hillside. Erosion. Scenario #3. Layers of sediment forming at the bottom of the ocean. Erosion. The carrying weathered rock from one location to another . Mechanical Weathering. Rock is physically broken down. Smaller pieces have same composition. Chemical Weathering. Rock is chemically broken down. another.. 2 . kinds:. 1) . Rill erosion. is the erosion by running water in small channels. , on the side of a slope.. 2) . Gully erosion. is when a rill channel evolves to become deep and wide.. Weathering. is the break-up of rock due to exposure to the atmosphere.. Weathering. involves two processes that often work together to decompose or break down rocks.. Chemical and Mechanical. Weathering!. Weathering and Erosion. Table of Contents. Section 1 . Weathering Processes. Section 2 . Rates of Weathering. Section 3 . Soil. Section 4 . Erosion. Chapter. 14. Section 1 . Weathering Processes. , Erosion and Deposition. . How can wind and water change our landscapes?. . Weathering- the . destructive processes . by which materials at or near the Earth’s surface are changed in color, texture, composition, firmness or form. . Chapters 14, 15, 16, 17, and 18. SES3. Students will explore the actions of water, wind, ice, and gravity that create landforms and systems of landforms (landscapes). . a. .
