Is a horn results of erosion or deposition?
Both. The horn itself may be the result of ancient sedimentary depositional processes, but glacial erosion contributes to its characteristic shape.
Is striation erosional or depositional?
it is depositional
What agent of erosion creates delta?
There isn't really an erosional process. Instead there is a depositional process; as the river meets the sea it slows down which means that it drops most of its sediment and spread out.
What happens when glacial erosion occurs?
U-shaped valleys are a result of alpine glacial movement. Bedrock is scoured and plucked by continental glaciers. A number of depositional features are a result of the movement and depositing of rock, sand and dust associated with glaciers.
Where are erratic?
Erratic adj irregular, inconsistent, wandering around. Erratic noun an erratic is a rock found where it does not belong. Many millenia ago it was carried on a glacier from where it originated to where it was found.
Where do Depositional processes dominate?
the erosion zone

A state of dynamic equilibrium exists in an erosional depositional system when?
the rate of erosion is the same as the rate of deposition.
Is striation erosional or depositional?
it is depositional
How does a volcano differ from other kinds of depositional mountains?
Volcanoes are different from other mountains because they are built by deposits (magma), whereas other mountains are built by erosion. Volcanoes have lava, whereas other depositional mountains do not, even though they may have hot spots.
What is the difference between a landscape dominated by depositional processes and a landscape dominated by erosional processes?
Deposition is when particals are dropped of and left. Erosion is where particales are carried away
Are star dunes erosional or depositional?
depositional
Is deferred junction erosional or depositional?
depositional
How the erosional and depositional features are getting degraded day by day due to the depletion of the ozone?
Depletion of ozone causes UV to enter. They fall on ground and plants and kill them. Plants avoid erosion. Thus erosion is increasing because of it.
Were eskers formed by erosional or depositional processes?
depositional
