What is the process in which sediment is dropped and comes to rest is called?
Sediments are finely divided materials that are carried along by moving water (or other fluid) and preciptate out when the water slows down. Sediment can ... If a ball comes to rest on a tee box do you drop off the tee box? Check local ... What is weathered material that is dropped offshore as sediment called? alluvial fans
What is the process by which sediment is removed from the source?
The process in which the suspended impurities or the sediment settles at the bottom of the beaker in which the source is filled is known as sedimentation. The process of separating the sediment from the source by pouring the source or liquid into other vessel is called decantation. Filtration is another method in which a filter paper is used to purify the source or liquid.
Compaction is an important lithification process with which sediment size?
Because sands and other coarse sediments are less compressible, compaction is most significant as a lithification process in fine-grained sedimentary rock.
How sediment accumulates?
Sediment accumulation is where sediment accumulates generally in the point of the lowest elevation. If sediment is in a river generally the sediment will accumulate at the mouth of the delta when entering the marine environment (proximal to distal).
What is a process by which shaking makes loose sediment behave like a liquid?
You are probably looking for the word 'liquefaction,' which means dirt during an earthquake suddenly becoming runny. Either that, or 'thixotropy,' which means a fluid moving about more easily the more pressure is applied to it.
What is eroded soil that is deposited in other places?
It is called sediment.
Does fast moving water carry less sediment than slow-moving water?
No. All other things being equal, fast water carries more sediment.
What is another process that moving glaciers picks up debris and moves it along to other places?
glacier landforms
What removes sand and other sediment from the ground by the process?
poo does
What removes sand and other sediment from the ground by the process by what?
poo does
What removes sand and other sediment from ground?
Wind removes sand and sediment from the ground in a process called deflation.
What removes sand other sediment from ground?
Wind removes sand and sediment from the ground in a process called deflation.

In what ways does a river carry it's load?
Fast-moving water actually lifts sand and other, smaller sediment and carries it downstream. Water dissolves some sediment completely. Most large sediment falls to the bottom and moves by rolling and sliding.

Wind removes sand and sediment from the ground in a process called deflation.
What is inlet sand bypassing?
Tidal inlets have a tendency to trap sand that is moving along the length of the shoreline by the action of waves and currents. Sand, or sediment, bypassing at inlets is any process (be it natural or mechanical) by which material is transferred from one side of the inlet to the other.
