wind erosin
What kind of force is weathering and erosion?
abrasion
What type of force is weathering and erosion?
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.
What is the effect of erosion by wind?
Wind erosion is the erosion of sediment by wind. This occurs when the lifting power of moving air is able to exceed the force of gravity.
Physical weathering is the type of weathering in which only a materials size or shape is changed?
Yes. Physical weathering is erosion caused by wind, dust, rain, flowing water, collapses, impacts, freezing/thawing, or glaciers.
What is the wind erosion that can be compared to sandblasting?
erosion and weathering
The major cause of weathering and erosion is?
Wind and water are the major causes of weathering and erosion.
What is Wind and water are agents of?
Wind and water are agents of erosion
What is it called when rocks are broken down by water wind ice and heat?
it is called an erosion
What cause weathering but not erosion?
wind blowing
What is the cause of the erosion?
wind and water are the 2 causes of weathering and erosion
In general what causes desert pavement A. Wind erosion B. Water erosion C. Mechanical weathering D. Chemical weathering?
wind erosin
How can erosion cause weathering?
Erosion does not cause weathering. Erosion is a TYPE of weathering in which surface soil and rock are worn away through the action of glaciers, water, and wind.
Erosion and weathering are caused mostly by?
wind and water.
Wind can cause both erosion and weathering?
no
How can you use the words glaciers and weathering in a sentence?
Wind and weathering can cause glacier erosion.
Is a canyon created by erosion or deposition?
