Why does weathering have to happen for erosion to happen?
Weathering is the process of rocks breaking down. Erosion is what moves the broken down rocks. There are four factors wind, moving water, wind, and gravity. Without weathering there would would be nothing for the Earth to erode.
Why is Weathering important to erosion?
weathering breaks down rocks, which makes the sediment easy to be transported
Are weathering and erosion the same process?
Both chemical and mechanical weathering breakdown a rock into particles, just in diffrent ways. Mechanical weathering is the physical weathering in which a rock is broken down into particles. Chemical weathering is the weathering in which rocks are disolved, decomposed , or loosend to change the minerals in the rock.
What are careers for weathering and erosion?
The agents for weathering and erosion are natural. I know off no career that would replace these natural agents. However, if you mean careers understanding or preventing them then Geology, Geography, farming and Engineering would be your choices.
When and where would you look for signs of weathering erosion or deposition in your community?
in bricks rocks
Why does weathering have to occur first then erosion?
Weathering breaks materialn down and erosion transports that broken down material. As an example, weathering breaks a mountain down into smaller rocks, and those smaller rocks can be transported by streams (erosion), but the streams cannot simply move the whole mountain.
Which layer of the soil profile would be affected the most by weathering and erosion?
Topsoil
Is it possible to have erosion without weathering?
No, erosion and weathering are closely related processes in the breakdown and transportation of rocks and soil. Weathering breaks down the material, making it easier for erosion to transport it away. In nature, erosion and weathering typically work together to shape the Earth's surface.
What would I draw for weathering?
You could draw different stages of erosion on a landscape, showcasing features like rock formations, rivers, and valleys. Alternatively, you could depict the effects of weathering on human-made structures, such as rusting metal or peeling paint on buildings.
How was long island formed by glaciers?
weathering and erosion the glacier used abrasion and then all of the rocks would be taken away by erosion
Was long island formed by glaciers?

What are three geological forces that would destroy fossils?
A fossil could be destroyed by heat due to melting, pressure from colliding bodies of rock, or from weathering at the surface.
