By people stealing rocks from off of the sides or it could just be from the wind and rain.
both
Well, darling, Uluru is mainly affected by physical weathering due to extreme temperature changes causing the rock to expand and contract. Erosion also plays a role, with water and wind slowly breaking down the sandstone layers over time. So, in a nutshell, both weathering and erosion are giving Uluru a bit of a makeover, whether it likes it or not.
Any and all rock can be changed into sediment by weathering and erosion.
yes but barely noticeable cos of the weathering stuff going on
Erosion and weathering over millions of years
THE WEATHERING PROCESS ......................... WHO KNOWS???
Yes. Uluru, formerly Ayers Rock, is being eroded, but only minimally, and not to any degree that is easily noticed within our own lifetimes. Natural landforms, of which Uluru is one, are all subject to weathering and erosion from wind and rain.
Uluru is made out of a type of sandstone called arkose, which is rich in the mineral feldspar. This gives Uluru its distinctive red color. Over millions of years, erosion and weathering have shaped Uluru into its current form.
Uluru, also known as Ayers Rock, is primarily shaped by weathering and erosion processes, particularly by mechanical and chemical weathering. The rock consists of sandstone that has been eroded by wind and rain over millions of years. The harsh climate contributes to the breakdown of the rock, while the surrounding desert environment enhances the effects of these erosional forces. As a result, Uluru has developed its iconic monolithic structure and distinctive color.
No, The Ayres Rock was changed to the name Uluru. Uluru lies in Northern Territory. Uluru is made out of sandstones.
The usual order by which a landform is changed is weathering, erosion, transportation, and deposition. Weathering breaks down rocks into smaller pieces, erosion transports these pieces to new locations, transportation moves them to new places, and deposition deposits them in a different location.
Weathering and erosion will effect the earth's future because land forms will be changed and create new rivers, deltas, etc.
