CHAPTER Denudation weathering and mass wasting CASE: Transcript


We focus here on the subsequent denudation of the region influenced strongly by the lithology and structure of the rocks This starts with the exploitation of tectonic structures which further distinguishes th e western Yorkshire Dales from the Lake. Weathering and Erosion. Shaping the Earth’s Crust. The rocks and soil of the earth’s crust are continually being worn down because of a number of processes.. These processes are known collectively as . Week 6. Questions for Discussion. Would you live on a slope? If so, where?. What level of risk from mass wasting is acceptable to you? (How would you know if the slope risk was assessed accurately?). by. M. . Shaller. , T.A. Ehlers, and J.D. Blum, 2010. Purpose. . Study moraine . foreslope. soil profile to address. - moraine denudation. - soil mixing. - chemical . weathering. Researchers analyzed: . 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. . Mechanics of Mass Wasting. . An . object resting on a horizontal . surface will move only when it encounters a force acting parallel . to the . horizontal surface. . . The . force . of . gravity . Topics of Discussion . What Is Wasting?. Defining HIV Wasting. . CDC Definition of HIV Wasting. Limitations for Diagnosis . Definitions of HIV Wasting in the HAART Era. Prevalence of HIV Wasting. Determinants of ≥ 5% Weight Loss Among HIV-Positive Participants in the NFHL Study: Final Multivariate Model . 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. 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. HAIVN. Harvard Medical School AIDS Initiative in . Vietnam. By the end of this session, participants should be able to:. Define wasting syndrome and list common etiologies in HIV-infected children. Review algorithmic approach to wasting syndrome. What is it?. Chronic wasting disease is a contagious, neurological disease. Currently, only deer,. . elk, and moose are susceptible to CWD. When and where did CWD start?. CWD started in 1967 with infected mule deer on a breeding farm in Colorado. . Belay ED, Maddox RA, Williams ES, Miller MW, Gambetti P, Schonberger LB. Chronic Wasting Disease and Potential Transmission to Humans. Emerg Infect Dis. 2004;10(6):977-984. https://doi.org/10.3201/eid1006.031082. What is Weathering?. The scenes of the world are continuously mutating. Sun, rain, frost, and wind are breaking down even the most solid of the rocks into smaller bits before they are taken away. This process is termed as weathering. . Lesson 3 . Please Do Now!!!!! . -Looking at this picture what do we think caused this boulder to break apart???. -Please write down your thoughts. . -If you get the correct answer Miss. Swisher will give you a dollar. . . Earth. ’. s external processes. Weathering. . –. the . physical breakdown. and / or . chemical alteration. of rock at or near Earth. ’. s surface. Mass wasting. . –. the . transfer. of rock and soil .
