∙ 6y agoErosion wears down the mountains over time through processes like weathering and transportation of sediment, leading to the gradual reduction in size and height of the mountain range. Deposition occurs when the eroded material is deposited elsewhere, potentially forming new landforms like valleys or sediment layers. Overall, erosion and deposition contribute to the reshaping and evolution of mountain ranges over long periods of time.
Weathering, erosion, and deposition will gradually break down and reshape the mountain range over time. Weathering will weaken rocks, erosion will transport the material downhill, and deposition will deposit the material in lower-lying areas. This process will eventually lead to the overall reduction in the height and size of the mountain range.
Erosion can decrease the height and size of a mountain range over time by wearing down the rock and carrying it away through processes like weathering and mass movement. Deposition can occur in lower-lying areas, such as valleys and coastal regions, where eroded material is deposited, potentially forming new landforms like alluvial fans or river deltas at the base of the mountain range.
Yes, the speed and volume of water are important factors that affect erosion and deposition on slopes. Higher water speed can increase erosion by carrying more sediment, while greater water volume can lead to more erosion and deposition due to increased force and capacity to transport sediment.
Erosion wears down a mountain range by processes like weathering and mass wasting, reshaping its features over time. Deposition occurs when eroded material is transported and then settles in different locations, potentially creating new landforms. Together, these processes can sculpt and change the overall shape and appearance of a mountain range.
Weathering will break down rocks on a mountain range, erosion will transport the broken-down rocks and sediments away, and deposition will result in the accumulation of these sediments in lower-lying areas. Over time, these processes can reshape the landscape of the mountain range by wearing it down and altering its topography.
Deposition and erosion can wear down a mountain and cause it to shrink.
Erosion and deposition affect a mountain range by wearing down a mountain in one place, and then new landforms build up in other places.

I think it might be because it will wear down and shrink

strong winds of a tornado assist weathering/erosion/deposition
it affects it on its amount of water
Usually the matter is, how does erosion affect flooding, as cutting down woods causes increased erosion which causes more flooding. Floods of course affect erosion though, as huge amounts of soil/earth can be transported with the waters in a flood.
They make the ocean's waters salty.
