Most canyons are the results of erosion caused by what?
running, water, ocean ,rivers
How are most canyons are formed?
Erosion by flowing water, usually by a river.
Which type of event is most likely to form canyons and valleys?
Erosion
What type of event would most likely to form canyons and valleys?
erosion
What natural factor was most likely responsible for cutting the grooves into the canyon?
I do not know which canyon you are talking about (please make your questions specific) but in most cases canyons are the result of erosion by liquid water following the course of a river.
Which characteristic of weather is most likely to result in erosion?
They are Valleys, Canyons, and Land Marks.
What are examples of erosion landforms?
What is arguably the best example of landform change by erosion is any landform cut in any manner by moving water. A river carves out a riverbed, and can even carve deep canyons over time. And probably the most dramatic example of a river cutting a canyon is the Grand Canyon. Nothing else on earth even comes close to it. It was cut by moving water (the Colorado River) over many millions of years.
What caused most of the rock formations in wv?
Most of the rock formations in West Virginia are caused by erosion.
Are most lunar craters that are formed by erosion caused by glaciers?

What weather is most likely to result in erosion?
very bad t storms would be most likely to cause erosion. so would snow
How is the release of carbon from limestone reservoirs into the atmosphere most often accomplished?
The release of carbon from limestone reservoirs into the atmosphere is most often accomplished through the decay and erosion of limestone deposits in canyons.
Between rill erosion and gully erosion which is the most damaging?
Gully erosion is usually the result of improper outlet design for local surface and subsurface drainage systems.
