What has the most impact on the formation of a sinkhole erosion weathering or deposition?
weathering because the main cause of a sinkhole is mostly rain which is a part of weathering
How can groundwater erosion result in the formation of a sinkhole?
When too much erosion occurs in a cave the of the cave will collapse and create a sinkhole.
What are the examples of soil erosion?
the examplesof soil erosins are mining and landslide
Is a landslide formed by erosion deposition or weathering?
Usually by erosion, although weathered rocks can split off to trigger a slide. A landslide is the downhill motion of loose rock and soil, sometimes entire layers of a mountainside.
What is an example of a change of erosion in the earth's surface that happens quickly?
Very fast erosion can be found at any landslide or avalanche...
What is cause of a 4 foot deep narrow sinkhole?
The cause is; erosion.

How can groundwater erosion result in the formation of a sinkhole?

What are some negatives of cutting down trees?
it will cause soil erosion flash flood landslide
Is landslide an effect of soil erosion?
Yes it is. Erosion causes landslides
What role does water play in creating a sinkhole?
Weathring and erosion .
Does landslide cause more erosion than tornadoes or storms?
Compared to tornadoes, yes. Tornadoes generally do not cause much erosion. With storms, it is tricky, as many landslides are triggered by storms. However, in areas prone to landslides, such events likely cause the greates portion of erosion.
A landslide is an example of?
Landslides are caused by the force of gravity pulling on the rocks.
What characteristic landscape features tell you that erosion due to a landslide took place?
The characteristic landscape feature that will show if erosion is due to a landslide is a concave scar on the hillside. A jagged gash in the mountain is not a way to tell if a landslide took place.
What are some examples of gravitational?
Some examples would be avalanche, landslide, debris flow, mudflow, and a sinkhole. Gravitational eroson is caused by gravity in contrast to the physical movement of wind and water required for other types of soil erosion. This involvs mass wasting and smaller scale erosion. Two types of mass movements are slump and creep
Is a landslide deposition or erosion?
When soil moves from one location to another location, it is being eroded in the location that it is leaving, and it is being deposited in the location where it is arriving. Hence, a landslide is both deposition and erosion.
What happens to the earth during a landslide?
Basically it leads to soil erosion
