Compaction
The geological processes, that are involved in changing igneous rock to sedimentary rock are; weathering, erosion, deposition and compaction.
The geological parts of the phosphorus cycle involve the weathering of rocks containing phosphorus minerals, releasing phosphorus into the soil and water. Over time, this phosphorus can become part of sedimentary rocks through processes like sedimentation and compaction. geological processes play a key role in recycling phosphorus over long timescales.
What is meant by the term 'compaction'
The process described is sedimentation, where sediments accumulate over time due to various geological processes. Compaction is a key part of the lithification process, where sediments are compacted under pressure, leading to the formation of sedimentary rocks. This compaction reduces the volume of the sediments and helps bind them together, ultimately forming solid rock layers.
