weathering is basically erosion. It's the the effect that wind, rain and other elements of nature affect things.
The Grand Canyon is a result of weather. large floods eroded the soil that it went over to create it.
Although the terms are frequently used together, weathering and erosion are uniquely different. Weathering is the physical, chemical and biotic breakdown of a substance and erosion is how it is carried off. Ice, water and wind contribute to the erosion process.
abrasion
a constructive force is a natural event that helps the earth like, weathering. weathering helps the earth by depositing sediments into other spots
mechanical weathering
biological weathering is when plants grow inside of a rock and break it apart, mechanical weathering is when rocks are broken apart by a force
The type of weatheirng contributes to soil formation because if it is mecahnical weathering by force, then it will come out differentally than chemicalw eathering if it is by chemical composition. THere would be differences by the weathering depending on where the rock is.
Weathering is a destructive force
Physical Weathering (aka Mechanical Weathering) is the main type of weathering in deserts.
it is the force
The type of weathering that causes Ice Wedging is Mechanical/ Physical Weathering.

Frost wedging
Chemical Weathering .
If you meant weathering that is caused by water; physical weathering is the answer.
Physical weathering.
Mechanical weathering.
Chemical weathering
