What is the sequence of events that form clastic sedimentary frocks from solid rocks?
The formation of a clastic sediment and sedimentary rocks involves five processes: 1. weathering 2. erosion 3. transportation 4. deposition 5. lithification
What can slow or prevent erosion by water?
It is big subject and answer could be 2-3 chapters: Water related erosion can be prevented by: 1. Creation of check dams. 2. Lining and check dam creations 3. Across the slop furrowing 4. Vegetation at the steep slopes 5. Trees to prevent erosion cause by rain 6. System to get water seeping at subsoil level.
How do streams carry their load?
Stream erode their channels by abrasion, grinding, and by dissolving soluble material. Stream transport sediment in three ways.1. in solution (dissolved load)2. in suspension (suspended load)3. scooting or rolling along the bottom (bed load)Hope that helps. Lot of people trolling this days...Please do not delete.
the three effects the wind has on Earth's surface?
Sorry i firgued it out its 1. It can carry particles of sediment from place to place. 2. It can also cause weathering. 3. Exposed rock can slowly erode.
What are 3 ways to create Emphasis in a work of art?
Directional Lines, Contrasting Values, Placement and Size are all ways to create emphasis in art.
What is a wash?
1. The dry bed of a stream 2. Waste water 3. The erosion of sediment or sediment that has been eroded
What is wash?
1. The dry bed of a stream 2. Waste water 3. The erosion of sediment or sediment that has been eroded
What are the disadvantages of groins?
1. short term 2. dangerous to surfers 3. Not visually appealing 4. prevents sediment going up the beach, this sediment is used to prevent erosion, and it can lead to structures that are formed by erosion to be formed. i.e the collapse of cliffs and the creation of caves, arches and stacks.
What are the 3 ways greatest factors that cause erosion?
Water,Wind,and Ice.
North American landmark which moves backwards?
Niagra Falls due to the erosion of the earth beneath the falls. It moves back about 3 feet each year.
How does an unconformity formed?
1) Deposition of sediment 2) Rocks are uplifted and eroded 3) Erosion of strata 4) New rock is laid down on top of older rock 5) Uplift and erosion exposes the unconformity at the surface
How how does an unconformity form?
1) Deposition of sediment 2) Rocks are uplifted and eroded 3) Erosion of strata 4) New rock is laid down on top of older rock 5) Uplift and erosion exposes the unconformity at the surface
Why does a river deposits its load?
the 3 ways are:1) solution2)suspension3)bed load
What are 3 ways the atmosphere moves energy?
Conduction Convection Radiation
What are 3 ways erosion can slowed down?
Erosion can be slowed down by using Erosion Control Blankets, growing trees around farms and putting Hydro Mulch Places needed. Hope This Helps.
What are the 3 ways thermal energy moves?
Thermal energy moves from one body(usually hotter) to a second body( usually colder) in three ways,they are:1. conduction , 2.convection, and 3. radiation.
What happens when fast water flows?
the faster it moves the more soil it pushes away in 3 processes of erosion, transportation and deposition
