How does weathering vary according to climate?

Climates that are warm and moist will produce more chemical weathering than do cool dry areas. Rocks in cold dry and hot dry areas/weather generally experience more mechanical weathering than chemical weathering.


How does the weathering of rocks at the peak of a mountain difffer from the weathering of rocks at sea level?

The reason it differs is because when it is at the top of a mountain, the air is much colder. The air penertrates the pours (holes) in the rocks and it causes it to slowly crack and eventually break completely. At sea level it is not as cold, but when the water continuously hits the rocks, some of the particles in the rocks break away. When a rock is warm, the Particles in it expand and when a rock is cold the particles in it contract. Because it is constantly expanding and contracting, it makes the rock weaker and eventually it will break.


Why are shorelines the places most affected by erosion and weathering?

First of all, erosion is the process of wearing things down over periods of time. Water is constantly changing the shape of the sand it flows over when it hits tide and causes the sand to change position. It could take as much a week or more to notice little differences in shape, depending on the strength of the wave when it hits. The stronger the wave, the more change there is in the shape of sand. Wind is another cause of change in the shape of the sand. Sand can move very easily when it's dry, so wind can change the shape of the sand by as much time as few days or less. I think that much is right. So this is the most likely reason why shorelines are most affected by erosion and weathering.

. There is Chemical, Biological and Physical Chemical is when acid rain weathers the rock Biological is when a plant grows in a rock and the plant roots grow into the rock (it breaks its way through) Physical is when something hits the rock and slowly it breaks away this more like erosion

How does acid rain affect animals plants and buildings?

The roots of wildlife are damaged by acid rain, which leads to stunted growth or death. Nutrients in the soil are also destroyed by acid rain and the waxy layer on plant's leaves is destroyed. Aquatic life is also effected, the acid rain leads to mercury and aluminum to come up from the soil and carried into lakes. If a body of water becomes to acidic, the aquatic life will die. Other animals are impacted because lower levels of life are destroyed by the acid rain and they cannot survive without a source of food. Acid rain also peels paint off buildings and causes the fading of colors. Acid rain can lead to corrosion, discoloring and fracturing in buildings.
