Gradual Change
Three things which can change a landform gradually
What are wind, liquid water, and ice
True or False
Erosion can be a gradual or sudden chnge in a landform
What is true
These are the four layers of the Earth
What are crust, mantle, outer core, and inner core
These are the ways scientists describe how the plates of the Earth's crust move
What are push, pull,and grind
These are FOUR examples of tools scientist use to study the changes in the surface of the Earth
What are seismographs, tidal gauges, sensors, and satellite systems
This is the removal of soil and rock due to wind and water
What is erosion
This is a sudden movement of snow, soil, and rock down a steep mountain
What is an avalanche
This is an opening in the Earth's crust
What is a volcano
This is the shaking of the Earth's surface
What is an earthquake
This tool is used to watch for physical changes from space
What is a satellite system
These are the people who make maps
Who are cartographers
This is a sudden movement of DRY soil and rock down a steep slope
What is a landslide
These are the three kinds of volcanoes
What are active, dormant, and extinct
This is a series of large ocean waves caused by underwater earthquakes and/or volcanoes
What is a tsunami
This tool is used to setect gas and chemical changes within a volcano
What is a sensor
What is a relief map
This is a sudden movement of WET soil and rock down a steep slope
What is a mudslide
This is how you would describe active, dormant, and extinct volcanoes
What is: active- continues to errupt; dormant- sleeping, not currently errupting; extinct- dead, not expected to errupt again
This is where volcanoes and earthquakes might occur
What is on dry land and underwater
This tool monitors seismic vibrations on the ocean floor
What is a tidal gauge
This is the main reason relief maps need to be updated
What is landforms change
These are ways landforms change due to landslides, mudslides, and avalanches (name as many as you can)
What are:
uproots trees, moves soil, blocks rivers, covers roads, destroys homes, causes flooding
These are examples of how volcanoes can change a landform
What are cover roads, block rivers, destroy plants and trees, bury lakes, build up sides of mountains
These are examples of how earthquakes and tsunamis might change a landform
What are:(earthquake) drain rivers, fill rivers with soil, roads split apart, (tsunami)cover homes with debris and sand, uproot trees, kill animals, major flooding, wash away large parats of islands
This tool is used to measure vibrations, or seismic waves
What is a seismograph
