Deposition 'erosion'? Water, wind, glaciers, waves, and gravity are considered the five agents of erosion.
Agents responsible for the deposition of sediments include water (rivers, lakes, oceans), wind, and ice (glaciers). These agents transport and deposit sediment particles, such as sand, silt, and clay, through processes like erosion, transportation, and settling. The specific agent involved depends on the environment and geological context.
The agents of erosion are wind, water, ice, and gravity.
Deposition is caused by glaciers, water, and wind.

sediment was formed by weathering and erosion in a source area, and then transported to the place of deposition by water, wind, mass movement or glaciers which are called agents of denudation.
