weathering is part of erosion
there are two types of erosion
mechanical and chemical.
chemical refers to elements such as oxygen and Iron which cause a chemical change such as rust and oxidation
mechanical weathering is when rocks or materials are separated by water mass movement etc
Erosion is when..................................................................................................................................................and weathering is when......................................................................................................!
Erosion is the process of moving weathered material from one place to another, while weathering is the breakdown of rocks and minerals in place. Erosion involves transportation of the weathered material by agents like water, wind, or ice, which weathering does not.
1. WEATHERING a. physical weathering/mechanical weathering b. chemical weathering 2. EROSION a. erosion by water b. erosion by wind c. erosion by ice/glaciers 3. MASS MOVEMENT a. landslide b. mudslide 4. TECTONIC PLATE MOVEMENT
Weathering brakes up rock. Erosion removes the broken up pieces.
maybe there just differrent by how they work
Weathering is when it rains and has a vary amount of wind and different types of weather. Erosion is when he rocks deform to different shapes. So it has a HUGE Impact because it changes the look of the rock.
Erosion can cause weathering by wearing down rocks and transporting particles, exposing them to different environmental conditions. This exposes the rocks to more physical and chemical processes that contribute to their breakdown and eventual disintegration, leading to weathering.
weathering then erosion ,then deposition
Yes, erosion is a synonym of weathering.
Weathering does not necessarily have to take place before erosion. While weathering is the breakdown of rocks into smaller particles, erosion is the process of transporting these particles to a new location. Weathering can occur simultaneously with erosion or even after erosion has started.
Weathering is the process that breaks down rocks into smaller pieces, while erosion is the transportation of those smaller pieces to a different location. Weathering weakens the rocks, making them more susceptible to erosion by water, wind, or ice. Together, weathering and erosion work hand in hand to reshape the Earth's surface over time.
Weathering is different from erosion because it breaks things down. Then erosion carries it away....:) hope i answered your question only thing is I'm learning that in fifth grade right now.
