A gully in earth science refers to a small, narrow valley or channel formed by the erosion of soil and rock, typically caused by running water. Gullies often develop in areas where water runoff is concentrated, leading to increased erosion over time. They can vary in size and depth, and their formation can significantly impact local ecosystems and land use by altering drainage patterns and soil stability. Additionally, gullies can contribute to sediment transport and affect water quality in nearby streams and rivers.
It has formed some of the land forms on the earth. It has carried rich soil with vitamins to the edge of the river and deposited it there to grow pretty plants.
The African landform that was most likely formed when two tectonic plates moved apart is known as the Great Rift Valley. That is what most geography experts agree is what happened.
The Arkansas river valley was formed by streams of water on when the state of Arkansas was under the ocean 400 billion years ago
glacier erosion
a beach is formed by deposition
A U-Shaped Valley is formed by glacial erosion.
No. Wind can cause some erosion, but it cannot form valleys. Yosemite valley was formed by glaciers.
Yosemite National Park and lakes were formed by erosion in California.
Glacial Erosion formed Yosemite Valley and the Sierra Nevada
Glacial erosion formed Yosemite Valley. Meanwhile, the streams eroded the granite rock to form the waterfalls we know as Yosemite Falls and many others today.
A deep steep-sided valley formed by weathering and erosion is called a canyon. Canyons are typically formed by the action of rivers cutting through rock over long periods of time.
In cross-section: A 'U' shaped valley is formed from glacial erosion. A 'V' shaped valley is formed by river erosion.
A U-shaped valley is typically formed by erosion, specifically by the movement of glaciers over time. Glaciers carve out the valley through abrasion and plucking, removing rock and sediment from the valley walls and floor. This process results in the distinctive U-shape of the valley.
A V-shaped valley is primarily formed by erosion, specifically by the action of a river or stream wearing away rock and sediment over time. The force of flowing water scours the landscape, carving out the valley shape. While some sediment may be deposited along the valley floor, the overall formation is due to erosion.
