What are the causes of landform development on the Earth?
Techtonic plate movement, weathering and degradation and human intervention (farming, civilisation).
How the human activities cause weathering of rocks and soil in logging?
I don't know.......my question is... how does erosion contribute to flooding?
How are humans responsible in causing weathering?
Weathering is a NATURAL process that would occur without humans on the planet. However, human activities, particularly the dumping of acidic gases (Carbon Dioxide and Sulfur Dioxide made as a byproduct of industry) into the atmosphere causes rainwater to become more acid than it would be if humans were not doing this. This acid rainwater speeds up the rate of weathering, particularly of limestone rocks.
What causes nutrients in the top soil to be removed?
Soil erosion and certain human activities causes the nutrients in the top soil to be removed.
How does people and human contribute to weathering of rocks?
it is through the omision of co2 which then goes up into the atmosphere and when causes acid rain whcih then weathers rocks :)
What is biological weathering caused by?
Human Actions (: iLoveeYou!!<33(NOHOMO!)

What kind of weathering does not alter the chemical composition of the rock?
mechanical weathering (by wind or water or perhaps tenacious plant roots or human activities)
In what way do human activities affect the process of erosion and weathering?
We may not realize that we can be walking on and or making a path
What are the different human activities that causes habitat alterations?
what causes habitat alterations are human homes and construction works

Can humans activivities affect the rock cyrcle?
Human activities influence different factors that affect the rock cycle, for example, soil erosion and weathering. Human activity such as mining affects rocks' weathering, affecting the rock cycle. Other human activities such as farming affect soil erosion, and soil erosion is a factor that affects the rock cycle.

Is pollution an example of chemical weathering?
Pollution is usually caused by human activities - industrial waste, mining and opencast, household waste, and so on.
List several variables that affect the rate of weathering?
1. Temperature 2. Rainfall 3. Wind speed and movement and 4. Human activities.
What causes nutrients in the top soil to be removed?
Soil erosion and certain human activities causes the nutrients in the top soil to be removed.
What is biological stress?
Biological Stress Any activity that puts pressures on living things and threatens to reduce their numbers or range. Although most biological stresses are human-caused, natural activities such as earthquakes or drought are also biological stressors. -www.pima.gov/cmo/sdcp/kids/gloss.html
