Deposition is the process of eroded material being dropped.
What is Deposition Transportation
100
overlaying rocks erode,granite expands;joints form
What is exfoliation
100
iron metal combines with oxygen that disolves in water to form rust
What is Oxidation
100
floods certain spots of the world
What is water affecting on earths surface
200
a scraped spot or area; the result of rubbing
What is abrasion
200
s a crack in the ground formed by a narrow or thin piece of ice that measures up to 3–4 meters in length at ground level and extends downwards into the ground
What is Ice Wedging
200
as plants grow and expand hat push rocks apart.animals move soil around expose new rocks
What is plants and animal activity
200
the change in the composition of mineral when the react chemically with water
What is Hydrolysis
200
water works both ways
What is water good or bad for the ecosystem
300
Collision between rock surfaces can cause
What is mechanical weathering
300
refers to the weight percentages (wt%) of minerals contained in the rock
What is Rock Compasition
300
when water dips into cracks in rocks and then freeze
What is ice wedging
300
when carbon dioxide co from the air dissolves in water H2O weak acid called carboric
What is carbonation
400
Oxygen and acids are agents in
What is chemical weathering
400
the preservation of soil against deterioration or erosion, and the maintenance of the fertilizing elements for crop production
What is Soil Conservation
400
the collision of rocks that results in breaking and weathering away
What is abrasion
400
rain water is slight acidic because it combines with a small amount of carbon dioxide
What is Acid Precipitation
400
chemical weathering
What is water important agent of
500
the process by which the surface of the earth is worn away by the action of water, glaciers, winds, waves, etc.
What is erosion
500
is a natural process that benefits stream and riparian ecosystems. Erosion in naturally stable streams (i.e., streams that are in equilibrium condition) is evenly distributed and therefore minimized along the stream channel.
What is channel erosion
500
Heating causes rock to expand. Cooling causes it to contract. The resulting cracking looks similar to frost wedging
What is Thermal Expansion and Contraction
500
the process by which the rock forms a solution in a solvent, usually water (i.e., dissolving; e.g., sugar or salt dissolving in water
