Weathering
Deposition happens after this step in the process.
What is Erosion?
The two types of weathering.
What are Mechanical and Chemical weathering?
The type of erosion that erodes soil and rock to make a channel.
What is Stream Erosion?
The grinding and wearing away of rock surfaces through the mechanical action of other rock or sand particles.
What is Abrasion?
Oxidation, Carbonation, and Plant based acids.
What are the 3 types of chemical weathering?
Water, Wind, Ice, Gravity, (and Waves)
What are the Agents of erosion?
Beaches, Deltas, Bottom of Mountains, Bottom of the Ocean.
What are the 3 places where deposition happen?
This agent of chemical weathering causes iron to rust.
What is Oxidation
This agent of erosion (that grows in the ground) can surprisingly break rocks.
What are plants?
Ice, water, wind, plants, gravity, and animals.
What are the agents of Mechanical (Physical) Weathering?
Caves form from this type of Erosion.

The process by which rocks break down as a result of chemical reactions.
What is Chemical Weathering?
This type of erosion happens when the mainland erodes away, creating sea stacks, sea arches, sea caves, and sea cliffs.
What is Wave Erosion?
sand dunes are examples of this type of Process
What is wind deposited sediments
This type of Weathering goes faster in warm, humid climates.
