What are the two types of erosion occurs due to the activities of man?
There are many erosion such as: wind,water,sand,sea,glacier and soil
List the four most common agents of erosion?
The 5 agents of erosion are... 1. Wind 2. Running water 3. Glaciers 4. Waves 5. Gravity
How is wind erosion different then water erosion?
In one, the sediments are carried by the wind and are usually fairly small. In the other, the sediments are carried by moving water and the sediment size can be quite diverse.
What process is it when Rock fragments freeze to the bottom of a glacier and are then carried away when the glacier moves?
The process in which rock fragments freeze to the bottom of a glacier and are then carried away when the glacier moves is called plucking. After the last ice age, stranded ice blocks left behind by the continental glacier melted and formed kettles.
What are the three forms of erosion water wind and?
the three types of erosion are wind, water and ICE
How wind erosion different from water and glacier erosion?
Wind does not carry heavy objects.
How is erosion different from water and glacier erosion?
Wind does not carry heavy objects.
What force causes erosion?
Wind, rain, fire, gravity , glacier retraction, waves. Moving water, ice, wind and gravity are the agents of erosion.
What are the two types of erosion occurs due to the activities of man?
There are many erosion such as: wind,water,sand,sea,glacier and soil
What the shape of the surface of the land?
Water, Wind, Wave, and Glacier Erosion as well as Mass Movement (or Erosion, Deposition, and Weathering)
How are wind erosion to water erosion different?
the answer is that water erosion wets all the land but while wind keeps it dry.
How can glacier and erosion contribute to land?
it can by makeing a whole seen of landforms and by causing every kind of erosion like ice ,water,wind also weather.
List the four most common agents of erosion?
The 5 agents of erosion are... 1. Wind 2. Running water 3. Glaciers 4. Waves 5. Gravity
What are two kinds of wind erosion?
sand, pebbles, rocks,debris, hit land, glacier, water, soil, and sea
How is wind erosion diff from water erosion?
Obviously rates for both can be similar or different, however aeolian (wind) erosion has nothing to do with water, and water (rain, sea level changes, floods) has nothing to do with wind. Both can alter a landscape.
What force provides the energy for the erosion caused by running water?
1. Wind. 2. Water. 3. Ice/glacier. 4. Waves. 5. Gravity. 6. Tides/ocean current.
How is wind erosion different then water erosion?
In one, the sediments are carried by the wind and are usually fairly small. In the other, the sediments are carried by moving water and the sediment size can be quite diverse.
