Erosion
mechanical weathering
Mechanical weathering, as sanding physically breaks down the rough surfaces of the board without altering its chemical composition.
It is an example of mechanical or more specifically biomechanical weathering.
Frost weathering is a type of mechanical weathering that occurs when water seeps into cracks in rocks, freezes, and expands, causing the rock to break apart. This process is common in areas with frequent freezing and thawing cycles.
Mechanical weathering can occur in any type of climate, but it is more prominent in cold and dry climates where freeze-thaw cycles and temperature changes can break down rocks.
Physical Weathering (aka Mechanical Weathering) is the main type of weathering in deserts.
Ice wedging is a type of mechanical weathering.

Mechanical and chemical weathering both occur.
Abrasion is a type of mechanical weathering that occurs when rocks are physically broken down by the friction and impact of other rocks, sand, or sediment. This process does not involve any chemical reactions.
