Where will any materials that are eroded from the Abilene area most likely be deposited?
Materials eroded from the Abilene area would most likely be deposited downstream in rivers and streams as they flow towards larger bodies of water like lakes or the Gulf of Mexico. These sediments can accumulate in channels, riverbanks, delta regions, or in the floodplains of rivers and streams.
Why is the nile delta shrinking?
Active erosion takes place along the river course, causing weathered and eroded rock particles to travel downstream with the water. These sediments are trapped by the dam and deposit there, preventing areas below the dam from receiving any sediment. This is in turn affects deltas further downstream. Deltas are formed at river mouths if the load deposited exceeds the amount being eroded away by the sea. Since the sediments are trapped by the delta, the amount of sediment being deposited onto the delta is less than the amount being eroded away by the sea.
What happens to any rock in the rock cycle to form sedimentary rock?
In order to become a sedimentary rock a rock must be broken down or eroded by weathering. The sediments of the rock then go through the lithification process where they are cemented and compacted together forming a sedimentary rock.
Are rivers constructive are destructive?
Here's a short answer: I assume you mean "Are rivers constructive or destructive" and it is very dependent on your perspective. Rivers, like any kind of water, will erode any earth that is in contact with it, but they also deposit nutrients and soil on its banks, or in the case of rivers like the Nile, they will periodically flood and deposit said nutrients on the flood plains, making those plains fertile. If you're building something, then yes, a river can be very destructive, but they're essential for the planet's cycle of life.
Can granite get eroded by acid?
Not to any significant degree.
What rocks are sedimentary rocks made from?
Sedimentary rocks are made from the accumulation and compression of weathered and eroded pieces of other rocks, minerals, and organic material such as plant and animal remains. Examples of sedimentary rocks include sandstone, limestone, and shale.
What is the maximum amount of cash you can deposit in a bank?
Banks will accept any amount if you deposit it. However any cash deposit made over $10,000 will be reported to the IRS.
Non refundable deposit refundable when?
Non refundable deposit means that the deposit will NOT be refunded to you at any time in the future after you make the non refundable deposit.
What role does gravity play in erosion and deposition?
it makes all the eroded stuff deposit at the bottom, if there wasnt any gravity stuff would jut erode into the wind and turn into tiny terror plants that would blow around erode the rest of are planet, silly
Are there any rivers in Paris?
I dont think there are any rivers in paris
What rock is weathered and eroded by waves?
Any rock outcropping at a shoreline.
The dropping of sediments by any agent of erosion is called what?
The dropping of sediments by any agent of erosion is called deposition. This process occurs when the transporting capacity of the agent (such as water, wind, or ice) decreases, causing the sediments it was carrying to settle on the Earth's surface.
