Erosion changes Earth's surface by moving and depositing weathered materials.
.
Erosion changes the earth's surface by providing a different landscape that reacts to natural occurrences. For example, as a river erodes the land below it, it becomes deeper and creates a river bank. If the river dries, this land would not return to its original state. Earth's surface is also susceptible to erosion by wind and glaciers.

∙ 13y agoErosion will eventually change a rock's shape completely. Take the Grand Canyon for instance. Now if you're thinking it will eventually destroy the continents, erosion takes hundreds to thousands of years, so don't worry.

∙ 15y agowater erosion can affect earths surface by, making rivers wider. it can also make steep cliff sides it can also chip off a part of a rock
Wiki User
∙ 14y agoby the pressure forcing down on the lanfill and that causes erosion to the soil
i think !!!! just sayin

How does gravity work with wind to cause erosion?
The force applied by wind can overcome the force of gravity to move objects from their existing position. Erosion has occurred. As soon as gravity predominates over the wind, the object is deposited. The erosion has been halted.
Is gravity a chief agent of erosion?
Yes.
Which agents carry erosion products?
Wind, water, ice, and gravity.
Which of these is an agent of erosion glaciers gravity ocean waves glaciers wind or all of these?
All
How does gravity act direcly to cause erosion?
Yes, if gravity were weaker, the mountains would be higher but a lot more crumbly. ergo - their present non-crumblieness is due in part to gravity.
How does gravity cause erosion?
The way gravity effect erosion is that the pressure of gravity pushes on the landfill
What types of erosion are affected by gravity?
Wind and water erosion are affected by gravity.
What is the effect of erosion by wind?
Wind erosion is the erosion of sediment by wind. This occurs when the lifting power of moving air is able to exceed the force of gravity.
Why is there no erosion on the moon?
Because there is No GRAVITY! Well... yes and no... Yes: Solar wind erodes the lunar surface but the effect is almost unnoticeable. No: The moon has no atmosphere so there's no weather to cause 'typical' erosion. Because there isn't Gravity
How does erosion effect wind?
erosion doesn't effect wind, wind causes erosion
How is gravity differ from all other agents of erosion?
no erosion
What are the processes of erosion?
Gravity
What are processes of erosion?
Gravity
How can an erosion effect the ocean?
erosion can effect the ocean because when there is erosion the sand will effect the height or space of the beach or ocean
Is gravity a force of erosion?
Gravity is an agent of erosion... I'm not quite sure if it is erosion. In the science textbook I have right in front of me it says and I quote, "Gravity, running water, waves, wind and glaciers are all causes, or agents, of erosion. Although it says it's an agent of erosion it doesn't say it is erosion. An agent is a "cause" of something.
What are the different types of gravity erosion?
The types of erosion by gravity are: slump and creep Types of deposition by gravity: rock falls, rock slide, mud flow
What is the agent of erosion on cliffs?
The agent of erosion on cliffs mostly is gravity.
