What deposition can gradually fill up depressions in earths surface?
Deposition by erosion , could fill a depression , the same erosion creates depressions.
How can absolute age based on rates of erosion and deposition be inaccurate?
The absolute age of rock is determined by the amount of radioactive decay, not by the rate of erosion and deposition.
Is drumlin erosion or deposition?
Drumlins are caused by both erosion and deposition. These drumlins are found in the lowlands of Scotland and are small egg shaped hills.
Was the Arkansas River Valley formed by erosion or depostion?
The Arkansas River was formed by erosion, not deposition.
Explain the difference between erosion and deposition?
Glacial erosion is the process by which a glacial flows over the land, picking up rocks. Glacial deposition is the process by which a glacier gathers a huge amount of rock and soil as it Erodes the land in the path
How does erosion and deposition affect mountain ranges?
Deposition and erosion can wear down a mountain and cause it to shrink.
How does weathering erosion and deposition by waves affect Texas?
Weathering, erosion, and deposition by waves in Texas can lead to the erosion of coastlines, formation of beaches, and movement of sediment along the shore. This process can impact ecosystems, habitats, and infrastructure along the coast. It also plays a role in shaping the landscape of the coastline over time.
Is a beach formed by erosion or deposition?
A beach is formed by both erosion and deposition. Waves erode the coastline by picking up and moving sand and sediment, which then gets deposited along the shoreline to create a beach. Erosion and deposition processes continually shape beaches over time.
How do tornadoes affect weathering erosion and deposition due the wind in Texas?
strong winds of a tornado assist weathering/erosion/deposition
How does weathering affect erosion and deposition?
it affects it on its amount of water
What rock forms bays?
Bays are typically formed by a combination of erosion and deposition processes. Coastal erosion by waves and currents can create a concave indentation in the coastline, while sediment deposition may fill in some areas, shaping the bay. The type of rock present in the coastline will influence how resistant it is to erosion and how quickly a bay can form.
How will erosion deposition affect a mountain range?
Erosion and deposition affect a mountain range by wearing down a mountain in one place, and then new landforms build up in other places.
How does deposition affect mountains?
Deposition and erosion can wear down a mountain and cause it to shrink.
Are beaches made by deposition or erosion?
Beaches are primarily made by deposition, which is the process of sediment being deposited by waves and currents along a shoreline. Erosion can also shape beaches by removing sediment and reshaping the coastline, but the overall formation of beaches is more heavily influenced by deposition.
How does wave refraction affect erosion?
Wave refraction can concentrate wave energy on headlands, increasing erosion in those areas. Conversely, wave refraction can reduce wave energy in bays, causing deposition to occur. Overall, wave refraction can lead to uneven rates of erosion along a coastline.
Is a way in which erosion and deposition affect the oceans?
They make the ocean's waters salty.
What is called when a wave hits the shore?
When a wave hits the shore, it is called breaking or crashing. This can lead to erosion of the coastline and deposition of sediment.
